Series: N/A
Publisher: Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers
Expected Publication: August 27, 2013
Description:
Her friends
have a joke about her:
How can you tell if Colette is lying?
Her mouth is open.
Fifteen-year-old Colette is addicted to lying. Her shrink says this is because she’s got a very bad case of Daughter-of-a-famous-movie-star Disorder—so she lies to escape out from under her mother’s massive shadow. But Colette doesn’t see it that way. She says she lies because it’s the most fun she can have with her clothes on. Not that she’s had that much fun with her clothes off. At least not yet, anyway…
When her mother drags her away from Hollywood to spend the entire summer on location in a boring little town in the middle of nowhere, Colette is less than thrilled. But then she meets a sexy biker named Connor. He’s older, gorgeous, funny, and totally into her. So what if she lies to him about her age, and about who her mother is? I mean, she has to keep her mother’s identity a secret from him. If he finds out who she really is, he’ll forget all about Colette, and start panting and drooling and asking her for her mother’s autograph. Just like everyone always does.
But what Colette doesn’t know is that Connor is keeping a secret of his own…

Why I'm Waiting:
The biggest this is the description, a girl who constantly lies because she doesn't want to live under her mother's shadow, sounds pretty interesting. Plus throw in an older biker guy with secrets of his own and it's bound to grab my attention. Plus the novel is written in verse and I absolutely love novels in verse!
What are you guys waiting on this week? Leave me a link below and I'll check it out!
This one sounds awesome! Great pick!
