Waiting On Wednesday #41

"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

The Little Woods by McCormick Templeman

Summary via Goodreads:
Are the woods behind St. Bede's Academy really haunted, or does bad stuff just happen there? When Calista Wood, a new student, arrives midway through her junior year, St. Bede's feels like a normal school... until she discovers that a girl had disappeared a couple of months earlier. Some kids think she ran away, others think she was murdered, but it's only when Cally starts digging around that she finds the startling truth.

Watch as Cally enters a world of privilege, weekend-long parties, high school romances, and... well-kept secrets. This page-turner will appeal to teens looking for a fast-paced thriller. Written in a voice at once gripping and crystal clear, debut novelist, McCormick Templeman, will take readers on a twisting and turning journey as only a "new girl" can experience.
-----

The Little Woods sounds like it's right up my alley and I can't wait to read it! (It's also on NetGalley right now--so I've got my fingers crossed at the moment.) The Little Woods by McCormick Templeman is published by Schwartz & Wade, a part of Random House, and its expected publication date is July 10, 2012.

So, what are you waiting on this week?

    Love the sound of this one, and the toned-down cover (good for all ages!). I always am a little hesitant about books branded 'thriller,' but I think I could get into this. Nice pick!

    YES. >:D I love boarding school stories when they're done well, and this one sounds incredibly creepy and awesome. I also love the cover, though it's very simple. I'd request this on Edelweiss, but . . . I promised myself I wouldn't request more. I PROMISED.
