Waiting on Wednesday: Glimmer

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted at Breaking the Spine all about the pre-publication books we can't wait to get our hands on. I'm really excited this week for... 
Glimmer


What if you forgot your identity and had to rely on other people to tell you who you were?
And what if to discover your true self, you first had to unravel a mystery so big and terrifying you were not sure you’d survive solving it?

When Marshall and Elyse wake up in each other’s arms with zero memory of how they got there or who they are, it’s the start of a long journey through their separate pasts and shared future.

Terrified by their amnesia, the two make a pact to work together to find the answers that could jog their missing memories. As they piece together clues, they discover they’re in the idyllic mountain resort town of Summer Falls, where everyone seems mysteriously happy, but as Marshall and Elyse quickly learn, darkness lurks beneath the town’s perfect facade. Not only is the town haunted by sinister ghosts, but none of its living inhabitants retain bad memories of anything—not the death of Marshall’s mom, not the hidden shame in Elyse’s family, not even the day-to-day anguish of high school.

Lonely in this world of happy zombies, Marsh and Elyse fall into an intense relationship...but the secrets they uncover could be the death of this growing love—and the death of everyone, and everything, they love in Summer Falls.
Publication Date: April 17th 2012

Wow, that's a long wait! But this book looks SO good, I'm super excited to read it. I've loved reading about Zombie towns ever since Zombie Blondes (which is really good, if you haven't read it) and this one looks unique and interesting. Definitely worth waiting for.

That's what I'm waiting for... how about you? Leave a link!
