Me on Waiting on Wednesday (88)

Waiting on Wednesday is a bunch of weekly fun hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine. :)

Title: Crash
Author: Lisa McMann
Release Date: January 8, 2013
Publisher: Simon Pulse

From Goodreads:

Jules lives with her family above their restaurant, which means she smells like pizza most of the time and drives their double-meatball-shaped food truck to school. It’s not a recipe for popularity, but she can handle that.

What she can’t handle is the vision. Over and over, Jules sees a careening truck hit a building and explode... and nine body bags in the snow.

She has no idea why this is happening to her or if she’s going crazy. It hardly matters, because the visions are everywhere--on billboards, television screens, windows--and she’s the only one who can see them.

But it’s not until the vision starts coming more frequently, and revealing more clues, that Jules knows what she has to do. Because now she can see the face in one of the body bags, and it's someone she knows. Someone she’s been in love with for as long as she can remember.


The cover is gorgeous. I sort of want this book just because of the amazing cover. The story sounds interesting, too, but it can be hit or miss with books about people who have visions of the future. Sometimes it'll come across as gimmicky or way too easy. Still, I've enjoyed the author's books so far. I'm looking forward to reading this one at the beginning of the year.
