Waiting on Wednesday...

It's been a while since we've had a Waiting on Wednesday! With all that March Madness, I didn't want to clog up the blog (and yes, my rhyming is unintentional). Now that we're into April, it's time to get excited about the books we can't wait for!

I was flipping through catalogs at work and gave a literal shout of joy when I saw the cover of The Time Traveling Fashionista. Isn't it so pretty? As you know, we're more than just about pretty covers at HPL so I was pleased to see that it has a pretty cool premise.

the premise: okay, so it's a bit out there. Louise visits a vintage fashion sale and meets two witchy saleswomen. She tries on a vintage dress that belonged to a film star and suddenly she's aboard a luxurious cruise ship in 1912. As the film star, she gets all sorts of perks and is having a great time until she realizes she's aboard a certain cruise ship - The Titanic. Yikes. Can she save herself and risk changing history?

why I'm dying to read it: Um, time travel and fashion? Yes please! I don't care that the premise is ridiculous, I think it sounds really fun and like the great premise for a series. Try on vintage jeans - go back to Woodstock!

how long I have to wait: It was just released YESTERDAY! Naturally, I'm getting it from the library though so as soon as the hardworking processing people are done with it, it's all mine!

while you're waiting check out: Get a taste for vintage with Vintage Veronica by Erica S. Perl about a girl who works at a consignment shop, available both in print and e-book format.

What about you? What are you dying to read? Do you have your copies of City of Fallen Angels yet? (The library copies just came in so they should be in your hot little hands soon!)
