"Waiting on" Wednesday - Social Suicide

Hosted by Breaking The Spine, this section will feature future upcoming releases that I personally am excited about. These will generally be coming up later in the year. Let me know what you're looking forward to, or even what you're writing, and maybe I'll feature it here as well.

Gemma Halliday - Social Suicide


• Pub. Date: 2012
• Publisher: Harper Teen
• Format: Unknown as of yet
• Age Range: Young Adult

Twittercide [twit-er-sahyd]: the killing of one human being by another while the victim is in the act of tweeting.

Call me crazy, but I figured writing for the Herbert Hoover High Homepage would be a pretty sweet gig. Pad the resume for college applications, get a first look at the gossip column, spend some time ogling the paper's brooding bad-boy editor, Chase Erikson. But on my first big story, things went...a little south. What should have been a normal interview with Sydney Sanders turned into me discovering the Homecoming Queen-hopeful dead in her pool. Electrocuted while Tweeting. Now, in addition to developing a reputation as HHH's resident body finder, I'm stuck trying to prove that Sydney's death wasn't suicide.

I'm starting to long for the days when my biggest worry was whether the cafeteria was serving pizza sticks or Tuesday Tacos...


Oh man, you guys. I really enjoyed Deadly Cool, so I'm excited about this one! I love the mystery feel of these novels since it isn't something you see much of these days in the YA age range. I do want to try her adult novels too since I really enjoyed this one. I like adult books, but YA novels are so quick to read. Yahoo!

Happy Wednesday!

    I loved Deadly Cool so much and the sneak peek of Social Suicide that appears at the end of Deadly Cool left me pining for more. Awesome pick!
