On My Wishlist is a weekly meme hosted by Book Chick City where you can talk about a book you want to read but haven't actually bought yet.
My pick for this week is...
(Amazon / Goodreads)
Goodreads description:
Seventeen-year-old Bianca Piper is cynical and loyal, and she doesn’t think she’s the prettiest of her friends by a long shot. She’s also way too smart to fall for the charms of man-slut and slimy school hottie Wesley Rush. In fact, Bianca hates him. And when he nicknames her “the Duff,” she throws her Coke in his face. But things aren’t so great at home right now, and Bianca is desperate for a distraction. She ends up kissing Wesley. Worse, she likes it. Eager for escape, Bianca throws herself into a closeted enemies-with-benefits relationship with him. Until it all goes horribly awry. It turns out Wesley isn’t such a bad listener, and his life is pretty screwed up, too. Suddenly Bianca realizes with absolute horror that she’s falling for the guy she thought she hated more than anyone.
I've heard so much awesome stuff about The DUFF, it's incredible I haven't read it yet. I really have to get my hands on this ASAP.

I loved The Duff! I hope you get to read it soon :).
ReplyDeleteOh man, is this ever on my list!! I am hoping to read it in the next couple of weeks. I just read the Hate List and it was so horrifying and yet like a train wreck, I couldn't look away.
ReplyDeleteI've added a Diana Wynne Jones book to my wishlist this week. Come see what it is.
