Waiting on Wednesday (7): Crash and Burn by Michael Hassan

Waiting on Wednesday is a meme hosted by Breaking the Spine! 

This week, I am eagerly waiting on...


 CRASH AND BURN

Expected Publication Date: February 19, 2013
Publisher: Balzer + Bray (Harper)
Format: Hardcover
Page Count: 544 pages

Michael Hassan’s shattering debut is a tale of first love and first hate, the story of two high school seniors and the morning that changed their lives forever. It’s a portrait of the modern American teenage male, in all his brash, disillusioned, oversexed, schizophrenic, drunk, nihilistic, hopeful, ADD-diagnosed glory.
And it’s a powerful mediation on how normal it is to be screwed up, and how screwed up it is to be normal.



Oh my, my, I need this book! Contemporary isn't my favorite genre, but you can bet that I will definitely be picking this one up when it comes out! Plus, 544 pages sounds really awesome to me. Cannot wait for this book!
