Waiting On Wednesday ... Too Pretty To Burn


Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking The Spine that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

This week's pick is She's Too Pretty To Burn by Wendy Heard


Here is the Goodreads synopsis
Inspired by The Picture of Dorian Gray, this sexy psychological thriller explores the intersections of love, art, power and violence. For fans of E. Lockhart, Lauren Oliver and Kara Thomas.

The summer is winding down in San Diego. Veronica is bored, caustically charismatic, and uninspired in her photography. Nico is insatiable, subversive, and obsessed with chaotic performance art. They're artists first, best friends second. But that was before Mick. Delicate, lonely, magnetic Mick: the perfect subject, and Veronica's dream girl. The days are long and hot—full of adventure—and soon they are falling in love. Falling so hard, they never imagine what comes next.

One fire. Two murders. Three drowning bodies. One suspect... one stalker. This is the summer they won't survive.

New love spirals into lethal danger in this expertly plotted YA thriller.
Today's pick is going to appeal to those who like mysteries and darker young adult books.

It seems to mix the idea of summer love with murder and that is immediately intriguing in a book premise. I am also curious about the comparison to Dorian Gray, especially with this synopsis.

It doesn't come out until 2021 so be sure to add it to your Goodreads in the meantime.

Expected release date - March 30. 2021
