When I first started book blogging back in 2015 I starting to participate in “Waiting On Wednesday” that was a weekly meme that was originally created by Breaking The Spine. Unfortunately Breaking the Spine is no longer hosting so I’m now linking my posts up to Wishful Endings Can’t Wait Wednesday. Don’t forget to stop over, link up and check out what books everyone else is waiting for.
Here Is My Can't Wait Wednesday Pick For This Week:
Title: Dive Smack
By Demetra Brodsky
Publication Date: June 19th, 2018 by Tor Teen
Theo Mackey only remembers one thing for certain about the fire that destroyed his home: he lit the match.
Sure, it was an accident. But the blaze killed his mom and set his dad on a path to self-destruction. Everything else about that fateful night is full of gaping holes in Theo’s mind, for good reason. Maybe it’s better that way. As captain of the Ellis Hollow Diving Team, with straight A's and solid friends, he's only one semester away from securing a scholarship and leaving his past behind.
But when a family history project gets assigned at school, new memories come rushing to the surface, memories that make him question what he really knows about his family, the night of the fire, and if he can trust anyone—including himself.

A couple of months ago I was looking through Goodreads for new book releases coming out in 2018, and I immediately fell in love with this cover it really did catch my eyes real quick. And the synopsis sounds absolutely amazing as well plus it is a stand-alone too and I totally love stand-alone novels as well!
Wow- that one has a cover that gets the attention! I'm a sucker for missing memories stories too. And yay for standalones!
