Waiting on Wednesday is a feature hosted by Breaking The Spine where I talk about books that I am eagerly anticipating!
This week, my WoW pick is…..
Save Me, Kurt Cobain by Jenny Manzer Published by Random House on March 8, 2016
Genres: Young Adult
Goodreads
Nico Cavan has been adrift since her mother vanished when she was four—maternal abandonment isn’t exactly something you can just get over. Staying invisible at school is how she copes—that and listening to alt music and summoning spirits on the Ouija board with her best friend and co-conspirator in sarcasm, Obe. But when a chance discovery opens a window onto her mom’s wild past, it sparks an idea in her brain that takes hold and won’t let go. On a ferry departing Seattle, Nico encounters a slight blond guy with piercing blue eyes wearing a hooded jacket. Something in her heart tells her that this feeling she has might actually be the truth, so she follows him to a remote cabin in the Pacific Northwest. When she is stranded there by a winter storm, fear and darkness collide, and the only one who can save Nico might just be herself.
This book sounds compelling, and heartbreaking, and amazing. It won’t be released until March, but go ahead and add it to your reading list now because I think we’ll be hearing a lot more about it!

this one looks really good. I love to go for the heartbreaking. Thanks for sharing. Adding it to my list.
It does sound heartbreaking. I bet this will be the book to read once it’s released. I love that cover!
This reminds me a little bit of Love Letters to the Dead. Will be adding to my TBR!
I thought so, too, but I think it’s a little different….
I can’t wait to see the path of Self Discovery Nico goes on! Excellent choice Kate!
Great pick, hope you get a chance to read it soon.
This sounds really interesting, and maybe heartbreaking too. I’m adding this one to my TBR. It sounds like it would be a great read. Thanks for sharing! Here’s my WoW. Happy reading!
That is quite the title! The blurb says it’s got tons of good potential — especially with the end and saying Nico has to rely on herself. Hm. I think I might rec this at the end of the week too!
I haven’t heard of this one before! Thanks for sharing! 🙂 Plus that cover is gorgeous!!
This one sounds so very unique and the title is quite a trip in itself!
