Waiting on Wednesday is a fabulous meme hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine! It's a wonderful chance to share the books I'm eagerly anticipating and to find out what my fellow bloggers are looking forward to reading!
On the precipice of her sixteenth birthday, the last thing lone wolf Cat Crawford wants is an extravagant gala thrown by her bubbly stepmother and well-meaning father. So even though Cat knows the family’s trip to Florence, Italy, is a peace offering, she embraces the magical city and all it offers. But when her curiosity leads her to an unusual gypsy tent, she exits . . . right into Renaissance Firenze. Thrust into the sixteenth century armed with only a backpack full of contraband future items, Cat joins up with her ancestors, the sweet Alessandra and protective Cipriano, and soon falls for the gorgeous aspiring artist Lorenzo. But when the much-older Niccolo starts sniffing around, Cat realizes that an unwanted birthday party is nothing compared to an unwanted suitor full of creeptastic amore. Can she find her way back to modern times before her Italian adventure turns into an Italian forever?I am filled with *need* for this book! It sounds absolutely A-MAZING and will you just look at that cover? It's so gorgeous and I adore it and I need a beautiful copy on my bookshelf!!! According to Amazon UK, it's released on the 27th of September which is only a few days after my sixteenth birthday! I think this means that fate has already decided that I need to get my hands on this book!
What are you waiting on today? Link me up!
Happy reading,

Ooh the name Niccolo immediately makes me think of Machiavelli, so that's fascinating. Sounds like a fun read. That's crazy it comes out right after you turn 16. I hope that means you will LOVE it.
