Waiting On Wednesday: A Year Without Autumn by Liz Kessler

This week I'm 'waiting on' A Year Without Autumn by Liz Kessler.

From publisher's website: If you could see into the future - would you look?

Jenni Green doesn't have a choice. On her way to visit her best friend, Autumn, Jenni suddenly finds she's been transported exactly one year forward in time.

Now she discovers that in the year that's gone by, tragedy has struck and her friendship with Autumn will never be the same again. But what caused the tragedy? How did Jenni skip a year? And can she find her way back to the past to try to change what lies ahead?

You know what I love? Time travel. It's one of my favourite things. In fact, it might just be edging ahead of my love of dystopia, when until very recently they were even stevens.

What I also love is the premise of A Year Without Autumn, the next book from Emily Windsnap author (and Brit) Liz Kessler. I'm always on the lookout for a good friendship story, and the fact that this one has time travelness thrown into the mix has me desperate to read it. If I could time travel forward a year, I'd pop into the nearest bookstore and buy a copy of this one already because I. can't. wait.

This one hits UK bookstores some time in April 2011. I want!

Waiting On Wednesday is hosted by Jill at Breaking The Spine.

What a neat-sounding little book! I wonder if it will make it over to the US. Kinda intriguing it's only a year forward. Thanks for sharing!

Young readers who are going through difficult times in their own family life or friendships will understand that there is no magic solution for them, but they will be heartened to see their problems portrayed so clearly and sensitively in this story.
