Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Breaking the Spine.



Subway Girl by P.J. Converse
Release Date: March 1st, 2011 by HarperTeen

S u m m a r y :
He is shy. Unassuming. Inexperienced.

She is Subway Girl. Cool. Unattainable.

From the moment he sees her on a Hong Kong subway, Simon is intrigued by Amy, but he doesn't have the nerve to talk to her. When he finally works up the courage, he realizes he can't. Because Amy doesn't speak Chinese, and Simon is failing English.

But somehow, Amy and Simon connect, and they find that they understand each other. Enough for Simon to admit that he is dropping out of school. Enough for Amy to confess that she is pregnant with her ex-boyfriend's baby. Amy and Simon feel lost in a world so much bigger than they are, and yet they still have each other.

In this brilliant debut by P. J. Converse, two unlikely teenagers discover that love has a language all its own.

Reason for waiting:
I love the idea of this book. Two people with a language barrier that still get each other. I can't wait to see how this one works out. Plus the cover makes you a bit curious too!
