Why i'm waiting:
I adore Ally Carter's works, which are about spies and thief, so it's no wonder i chose Also Known As by Robin Benway this week. I discovered Also Known As from a blogger (Head Stuck in a Book - her Waiting on Wednesday choices so check them out!) i follow. When i read "gifted teenage safe cracker" and "spy" i had already clicked "to read" on Goodreads.
What are you waiting on?
