Waiting on Wednesday: Unspoken by Sarah Rees Brennan

This week’s can’t wait to read selection is
Unspoken by Sarah Rees Brennan.
Publication Date:  September 11th 2012

Unspoken - Random House Books for Young Readers
Kami Glass loves someone she’s never met . . . a boy she’s talked to in her head ever since she was born. She wasn’t silent about her imaginary friend during her childhood, and is thus a bit of an outsider in her sleepy English town of Sorry-in-the-Vale. Still, Kami hasn’t suffered too much from not fitting in. She has a best friend, runs the school newspaper, and is only occasionally caught talking to herself. Her life is in order, just the way she likes it, despite the voice in her head.

But all that changes when the Lynburns return.

The Lynburn family has owned the spectacular and sinister manor that overlooks Sorry-in-the-Vale for centuries. The mysterious twin sisters who abandoned their ancestral home a generation ago are back, along with their teenage sons, Jared and Ash, one of whom is eerily familiar to Kami. Kami is not one to shy away from the unknown—in fact, she’s determined to find answers for all the questions Sorry-in-the-Vale is suddenly posing. Who is responsible for the bloody deeds in the depths of the woods? What is her own mother hiding? And now that her imaginary friend has become a real boy, does she still love him? Does she hate him? Can she trust him?
Synopsis by goodreads.com 

I have to admit, I rather like love stories. And this one sounds like an extraordinary love story. But more than that: a mystery story (with a paranormal touch?). Also, I have only read one story by Sarah Rees Brennan, but I'd say we are in for some unexpected twists and turns with this first installment of The Lynburn Legacy series. 

Is Unspoken a book for your TBR as well? Tell us what you're waiting on.
