Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating. This week's pre-publication "can't-wait-to-read" selection is:
Scones and Sensibility
By Lindsay Eland
Release Date: December 22, 2009
Synopsis: “Polly Madassa is convinced she was born for a more romantic time. A time when Elizabeth Bennet and Anne of Green Gables walked along the moors and beaches of the beautiful land, a time where a distinguished gentleman called upon a lady of quality and true love was born in the locked eyes of two young lovers. But alas, she was not. This, however, does not stop our young heroine from finding romance wherever she can conjure it up. So while Polly is burdened with a summer job of delivering baked goods from her parents bakery (how quaint!) to the people in her small beach town, she finds a way to force…um…encourage romance to blossom. She is determined to bring lovers, young and old, together…whether they want to be or not.”-GoodReads

Why I’m Waiting: Doesn’t this sound cute? I have a feeling Polly will be quite the matchmaker, and I can’t help thinking that all her matches aren’t going to go as planned. I hope that Polly has a little romance of her own along the way as well. I thought the cover was really cute and I also thought the title was a cute take on “Sense and Sensibility”. Anyway, I’m really excited for this one to be released.
I think this one sound more like Emma than Sense and Senibility. Either way, I think it will be a sweet read.
ReplyDeleteBecky-I totally agree, I was thinking Emma when I read the description as well. =)
ReplyDeleteThis does look cute. I've got it on my TBR list.
