Waiting on Wednesday #94: Pretending to be Erica by Michelle Painchaud



Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly feature created by Jill at Breaking the Spine. This is where you showcase an upcoming release you're anxiously awaiting!

This week, I'm waiting on:
Pretending to be Erica by Michelle Painchaud.

Expected Publication: July 21, 2015.
by: Viking Juvenile.

Goodreads Synopsis:
We Were Liars meets Heist Society in a riveting debut!

Seventeen-year-old Violet’s entire life has revolved around one thing: becoming Erica Silverman, an heiress kidnapped at age five and never seen again. Violet’s father, the best con man in Las Vegas, has a plan, chilling in its very specific precision. Violet shares a blood type with Erica; soon, thanks to surgery and blackmail, she has the same face, body, and DNA. She knows every detail of the Silvermans’ lives, as well as the PTSD she will have to fake around them. And then, when the time is right, she “reappears”—Erica Silverman, brought home by some kind of miracle. But she is also Violet, and she has a job: Stay long enough to steal the Silverman Painting, an Old Master legendary in the Vegas crime world. Walking a razor’s edge, calculating every decision, not sure sometimes who she is or what she is doing it for, Violet is an unforgettable heroine, and Pretending to be Erica is a killer debut.

Why I'm excited:
Just try to tell me that you're not intrigued by that synopsis. This girl literally takes the place of another girl in order to serve her con man father. Imagine how crazy that's going to get. And imagine the range of emotions Violet is sure to go through. This one is sure to be a wild ride!

What are you waiting on this week?
