Wishing on Wednesday [22]

Wishing and hoping, and thinking and praying...

"From the fantastic author of The Lonely Hearts Club and Prom & Prejudice comes a story of all the drama and comedy of four friends who grow into themselves at a performing arts high school.


Emme, Sophie, Ethan, and Carter are seniors at a performing arts school, getting ready for their Senior Showcase recital, where the pressure is on to appeal to colleges, dance academies, and professionals in show business. For Sophie, a singer, it's been great to be friends with Emme, who composes songs for her, and to date Carter, soap opera heartthrob who gets plenty of press coverage. Emme and Ethan have been in a band together through all four years of school, but wonder if they could be more than just friends and bandmates. Carter has been acting since he was a baby, and isn't sure how to admit that he'd rather paint than perform. The Senior Showcase is going to make or break each of the four, in a funny, touching, spectacular finale that only Elizabeth Eulberg could perform."

Performing Arts School...need I say more? For me this setting is right up their with road trips and boarding schools and always a MUST READ. What also makes it a must read is the fact that Alli of Magnet 4 Books blog, and my literary twin, rated it as five stars (along with several other bloggers). How could I not be wishing for this book?

  1. I'm so excited for this book! I loved The Lonely Hearts Club by the same author and this one sounds just fabulous. I love those movies about performing arts schools even if I haven't really read many books. Great pick! :)

  3. I'm a big fan of those movies too. I really enjoyed, probably going to get teased majorly for this one, Raise Your Voice...the one Hilary Duff and the really hot guy was in. Oliver James. Oh how I love thee Oliver James.
