Waiting on Wednesday: The Sound by Sarah Alderson

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
Title: The Sound
Author: Sarah Alderson
Exp. Pub.: August 1, 2013
Publisher: Simon & Schuster UK



When aspiring music journalist Ren Kingston takes a job nannying for a wealthy family on the exclusive island of Nantucket, playground for Boston's elite, she's hoping for a low-key summer reading books and blogging about bands. Boys are firmly off the agenda.

What she doesn't count on is falling in with a bunch of party-loving private school kids who are hiding some dark secrets, falling (possibly) in love with the local bad boy, and falling out with a dangerous serial killer...


What I'm Waiting: It seems like the perfect combination for an awesome YA book.  Private school and boy drama, AND a serial killer!
