Waiting On Wednesday: Blaze (or Love in the Time of Supervillains) by Laurie Boyle Crompton
Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Breaking the Spine,
and specifically spotlights upcoming
novels we can’t wait to read.
Our WoW for this week is…
Blaze is tired of spending her life on the sidelines, drawing comics and feeling invisible. She’s desperate for soccer star Mark to notice her. And when her BFF texts Mark a photo of Blaze in sexy lingerie, it definitely gets his attention. After a hot date in the back of her minivan, Blaze is flying high, but suddenly Mark’s feelings seem to have been blasted by a freeze-ray gun, and he dumps her. Blaze gets her revenge by posting a comic strip featuring uber-villain Mark the Shark. Mark then retaliates by posting her “sext” photo, and, overnight, Blaze goes from Super Virgin Girl to Super Slut. That life on the sidelines is looking pretty good right about now…

This one sounds unique the way she compares her life to comics and superheroes and villains. Mark sounds like a jerk!

I have seen this one around it sounds good. Funny thing is that (my husband still laughs about it) on one of our first dates something went wrong and I looked at him and said “If this ish were a comic book.’ To this day he laughs about it! I seriously am excited for this one!! MY WOW
