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…..
Not If I See You First by Eric Lindstrom Published by Hachette on December 1, 2015
Genres: Young Adult
Goodreads
Don't deceive me. Ever. Especially using my blindness. Especially in public.
Don't help me unless I ask. Otherwise you're just getting in my way or bothering me.
Don't be weird. Seriously, other than having my eyes closed all the time, I'm just like you only smarter.
Parker Grant doesn't need 20/20 vision to see right through you. That's why she created the Rules: Don't treat her any differently just because she's blind, and never take advantage. There will be no second chances. Just ask Scott Kilpatrick, the boy who broke her heart. When Scott suddenly reappears in her life after being gone for years, Parker knows there's only one way to react-shun him so hard it hurts. She has enough on her mind already, like trying out for the track team (that's right, her eyes don't work but her legs still do), doling out tough-love advice to her painfully naive classmates, and giving herself gold stars for every day she hasn't cried since her dad's death three months ago. But avoiding her past quickly proves impossible, and the more Parker learns about what really happened--both with Scott, and her dad--the more she starts to question if things are always as they seem. Maybe, just maybe, some Rules are meant to be broken.
I am already in love with Parker’s voice and I’ve only read the jacket copy! I haven’t heard too much about this book, but what I have heard is good, so I am looking forward to this December release.
Looks interesting. Can’t wait to hear what you think of it.
This sounds amazing. I’m adding it to my Goodreads right now. Can’t say that I’ve ever read a book about a blind character so this one sounds like a great one to start with.
Ohhh this sounds really good! I must have it! ♥
Oh this looks very interesting. I like the cover and wonder if they will do the raised text in real life. Great pick!

Oh wow, this book sounds amazing! I agree, you can tell Parker is going to be an amazing character just from the summary and I really want to see more of Scott 🙂 Thanks so much for sharing this, Kate!
