Waiting on Wednesday is hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, and spotlights upcoming releases that we’re eagerly anticipating.
Today my pick is Don’t Look Back by Jennifer L. Armentrout!
From Goodreads:
Samantha is a stranger in her own life. Until the night she disappeared with her best friend, Cassie, everyone said Sam had it all-popularity, wealth, and a dream boyfriend.
Sam has resurfaced, but she has no recollection of who she was or what happened to her that night. As she tries to piece together her life from before, she realizes it’s one she no longer wants any part of. The old Sam took “mean girl” to a whole new level, and it’s clear she and Cassie were more like best enemies. Sam is pretty sure that losing her memories is like winning the lottery. She’s getting a second chance at being a better daughter, sister, and friend, and she’s falling hard for Carson Ortiz, a boy who has always looked out for her-even if the old Sam treated him like trash.
But Cassie is still missing, and the facts about what happened to her that night isn’t just buried deep inside of Sam’s memory-someone else knows, someone who wants to make sure Sam stays quiet. All Sam wants is the truth, and if she can unlock her clouded memories of that fateful night, she can finally move on. But what if not remembering is the only thing keeping Sam alive?
Okay, first of all, I love that cover! So pretty but also so creepy!
The words ‘mean girl’ instantly attract me to a book, and this sounds like a very cool take on the mean girl story. I’ve pre-ordered this book already because I can’t wait to get my hands on it and read it!
What are you waiting on this week? Leave a link/let me know in the comments!

I’ve loved every Jennifer Armentrout book I’ve read, so I’m especially excited for this one! It sounds like an amazing thriller. Great pick π
Thanks! I’ve only read one of her books before so I’m really looking forward to this one!
Yep, that is definitely a creepy cover. It definitely sounds like an interesting take on the “mean girl” thing and the fact that someone knows….*shivers and looks around the corners*
