WOW is a weekly meme hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, where we spotlight upcoming releases that we are eagerly anticipating!
I saw this book posted on another blog months ago, and I knew I just had to read it. I can't wait till is comes out May 1st.
I'm Not Her by Janet Gurtler
Release Date: 5/1/2011
From Goodreads
Brainy Tess Smith is the younger sibling of the beautiful, popular, volleyball-scholarship-bound Kristina. When Kristina is diagnosed with bone cancer, it drastically changes both sisters' lives. Sometimes the things that annoy us the most about our siblings are the ones we'd miss the most if we lost them.
In this YA literary coming-of-age novel that will appeal to readers who love Jodi Picoult and Sarah Dessen, sisters Tess and Kristina discover not only who they are, but who they can become.
Here is a Reading by Janet that I found on Youtube:
