is a weekly event hosted by Jill over at Breaking The Spine, and it gives you a chance to spotlight a
book that you are eagerly waiting to be released.
This week, I picked:
The Wrong Side of Right
By Jenn Marie Thorne
Publication Date:
March 17, 2015
Summary from
Goodreads:
Fans of Sarah Dessen and Huntley Fitzpatrick
will enjoy this smart debut young adult novel, equal parts My Life Next Door
and The Princess Diaries—plus a dash of Aaron Sorkin.
Kate Quinn’s mom died last year, leaving Kate parentless and reeling. So when the unexpected shows up in her living room, Kate must confront another reality she never thought possible—or thought of at all. Kate does have a father. He’s a powerful politician. And he’s running for U.S. President. Suddenly, Kate’s moving in with a family she never knew she had, joining a campaign in support of a man she hardly knows, and falling for a rebellious boy who may not have the purest motives. This is Kate’s new life. But who is Kate? When what she truly believes flies in the face of the campaign’s talking points, she must decide. Does she turn to the family she barely knows, the boy she knows but doesn’t necessarily trust, or face a third, even scarier option?
Set against a backdrop of politics, family, and first love, this is a story of personal responsibility, complicated romance, and trying to discover who you are even as everyone tells you who you should be.

Why I Picked it:
The first paragraph of
the summary kind of sealed the deal for me. I love Sarah Dessen’s books, and I
am always looking for other books that are similar.
