Waiting on Wednesday is hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, and spotlights upcoming releases that weβre eagerly anticipating.
The summer before her junior year, paleontology geek Natalie Page lands a coveted internship at an Ice Age dig site near Austin. Natalie, whoβs also a plus-size fashion blogger, depends on the retro style she developed to shield herself from her former bullies, but vintage dresses and perfect lipstick arenβt compatible with prospecting for fossils in the Texas heat. But nothing is going to dampen Natalieβs spirit β sheβs exactly where she wants to be, and she gets to work with her hero, a rock-star paleontologist who hosts the most popular paleo podcast in the world. And then thereβs Chase the intern, whoβs seriously cute, and Cody, a local boy whoβd be even cuter if he were less of a grouch.
Itβs a summer that promises to be about more than just mammoths.
Until it isnβt.
When Natalieβs hero turns out to be anything but, and steals the credit for one of her accomplishments, Nat has to unearth the confidence she needs to stand out in a field dominated by dudes. To do this, sheβll have to let her true self shine, even if that means defying all the rules for the sake of a major discovery.

This does have a really cute synopsis. But, the idea of someone taking credit for another personβs work is already making me irrationally angry, so Iβll just read your review and hope thereβs a point where the villain gets their comeuppance!
Haha
