It's 1996, and less than half of all American high school students have ever used the Internet.
Emma just got her first computer and an America Online CD-ROM.
Josh is her best friend. They power up and log on--and discover themselves on Facebook, fifteen years in the future.
Everybody wonders what their Destiny will be. Josh and Emma are about to find out.
(GoodReads)

This is such an awesome idea for a book. I remember the days when my friends and I would go on AOL, when (to us) the internet was this new, awesome, mysterious thing. Being able to easily connect with people from all over the world was such a great concept. Then when Facebook came around, it brought whole new possibilities concerning social networking. I cannot wait to get my hands on this book!

What are you waiting on this Wednesday?

Waiting on Wednesday: Ingenue by Jillian Larkin

Ingenue
Ingenue (Flappers #2) by Jillian Larkin
Release Date: August 9th, 2011
Delacorte Books, 351 pages

Bobbed hair. Short skirts. Cool jazz. Dark speakeasy. Anything goes. Meet the flappers, Gloria, Clara, Lorraine . . . and the rich young boys who love and loathe them. (Goodreads)

In the spring I read Vixen (the first book in the Flapper series). I fell in love with the story because I love reading about anything to do with the Roaring Twenties. It was definitely fast paced story, filled with drama and forbidden romances. I am really looking forward to this read!
