Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly Meme started by Breaking the Spine. It is a feature that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating. This one sounds unusual and it definitely has my interest.
This week's pre-publication "can't-wait-to-read" selection is:
Forget-Her-Nots by Amy Brecount
Releasing Mar 1st 2010
Something—some power—is blooming inside Laurel. She can use flowers to do things. Like bringing back lost memories. Or helping her friends ace tests. Or making people fall in love.
Laurel suspects her newfound ability has something to do with an ancient family secret, one that her mother meant to share with Laurel when the time was right. But then time ran out.
Clues and signs and secret messages seem to be all around Laurel at Avondale School, where her mother had also boarded as a student. Can Laurel piece everything together quickly enough to control her power, which is growing more potent every day? Or will she set the stage for the most lovestruck, infamous prom in the history of the school?

You're right. This really sounds like an unusual and interesting read. I'll have to add this to my wish list.

I don't know if you entered the Holey Donuts giveaway or not, but if you could check out this post and do so for my blog, it would mean a TON for my family and you can enter for the book afterwards too if you wish (White Cat by Holly Black ARC)!:

@Shweta & JuJu - the cover is great. I'm such a cover dork and very guilty of judging books by their cover. It's like the first impression thing, you only get one chance to make a first impression so dress up. LOL.
@Amy thanks for stopping by! I can't wait to read. New month, new book budget - Yippee!
@Tweezle - it just does sound different. Always love some new paranormal craziness.
