Waiting on... Sunday?

I know it's supposed to be Waiting on Wednesday.. but I can't wait until Wednesday to post this book I just recently discovered!!! So behold and do the girly squeal I just did after reading the blurb ;-)


Love and Other Perishable Items

Love and Other Perishable Items
by Laura Buzo

Synopsis from Goodreads:


Love is awkward, Amelia should know. 


From the moment she sets eyes on Chris, she is a goner. Lost. Sunk. Head over heels infatuated with him. It's problematic, since Chris, 21, is a sophisticated university student, while Amelia, 15, is 15.


Amelia isn't stupid. She knows it's not gonna happen. So she plays it cool around Chris—at least, as cool as she can. Working checkout together at the local supermarket, they strike up a friendship: swapping life stories, bantering about everything from classic books to B movies, and cataloging the many injustices of growing up. As time goes on, Amelia's crush doesn't seem so one-sided anymore. But if Chris likes her back, what then? Can two people in such different places in life really be together? Through a year of befuddling firsts—first love, first job, first party, and first hangover—debut author Laura Buzo shows how the things that break your heart can still crack you up.

The blurb... the cover... *sigh* isn't it brilliant!?!?!?! Sadly we'd have to wait until December for this one. :-<
