Waiting on Wednesday (127): BLIND


WOW is hosted by Breaking the Spine


BLIND by Rachel DeWoskin
April 14th, 2014 by Viking Juvenile
When Emma Sasha Silver loses her eyesight in a nightmare accident, she must relearn everything from walking across the street to recognizing her own sisters to imagining colors. One of seven children, Emma used to be the invisible kid, but now it seems everyone is watching her. And just as she’s about to start high school and try to recover her friendships and former life, one of her classmates is found dead in an apparent suicide. Fifteen and blind, Emma has to untangle what happened and why—in order to see for herself what makes life worth living.

Unflinching in its portrayal of Emma’s darkest days, yet full of hope and humor, Rachel DeWoskin’s brilliant Blind is one of those rare books that utterly absorbs the reader into the life and experience of another.

This seems like it could be an interesting, intense story. The cover is absolutely perfect.

What are you waiting on?
