Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating. This week's pick is:
Girl Mans Up by M-E Girard
Published on September 6, 2016 by HarperCollins
All Pen wants is to be the kind of girl she’s always been. So why does everyone have a problem with it? They think the way she looks and acts means she’s trying to be a boy-that she should quit trying to be something she’s not. If she dresses like a girl, and does what her folks want, it will show respect. If she takes orders and does what her friend Colby wants, it will show her loyalty. But respect and loyalty, Pen discovers, are empty words. Old-world parents, disintegrating friendships, and strong feelings for other girls drive Pen to see the truth-that in order to be who she truly wants to be, she’ll have to man up.
Why I'm waiting:
- Queer fiction with a lesbian as the main character, that doesn't fit the mold expected to girls to be girly
- f/f romance that stays solid and in a healthy relationship through all the book
Are you waiting for this book? Have you read it yet? Let me know!
