"Waiting On" Wednesday (2)

"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Jill @ Breaking the Spine. "Waiting On" is where bloggers can share what they are most eagerly waiting to read in the upcoming months.

My "Waiting On" this week is: Haunting Violet by Alyxandra Harvey!
Synopsis: Violet Willoughby doesn't believe in ghosts. But they believe in her. After spending years participating in her mother's elaborate ruse as a fraudulent medium, Violet is about as skeptical as they come in all matters supernatural. Now that she is being visited by a very persistent ghost, one who suffered a violent death, Violet can no longer ignore her unique ability. She must figure out what this ghost is trying to communicate, and quickly because the killer is still on the loose.

Afraid of ruining her chance to escape her mother's scheming through an advantageous marriage, Violet must keep her ability secret. The only person who can help her is Colin, a friend she's known since childhood, and whom she has grown to love. He understands the true Violet, but helping her on this path means they might never be together. Can Violet find a way to help this ghost without ruining her own chance at a future free of lies?

My thoughts: What can I say beside the fact that I love the color purple? Haunting Violet's cover is so pretty and purple! I love the background scenery. Other than the cover this story sounds interesting.

What are your thoughts on Haunting Violet? Sounds like a book you would read?

Haunting Violet by Alyxandra Harvey will be released June 21st, 2011 from Walker Books for Young Readers!
