It’s time for another installment of Waiting on Wednesday, where we give you the 411 on the books that we can’t wait to read.
Yes No Maybe So by Becky Albertalli and Aisha Saeed
Anticipated Arrival Date: 2/4/2020
YES
Jamie Goldberg is cool with volunteering for his local state senate candidate—as long as he’s behind the scenes. When it comes to speaking to strangers (or, let’s face it, speaking at all to almost anyone), Jamie’s a choke artist. There’s no way he’d ever knock on doors to ask people for their votes…until he meets Maya.
NO
Maya Rehman’s having the worst Ramadan ever. Her best friend is too busy to hang out, her summer trip is canceled, and now her parents are separating. Why her mother thinks the solution to her problems is political canvassing—with some awkward dude she hardly knows—is beyond her.
MAYBE SO
Going door to door isn’t exactly glamorous, but maybe it’s not the worst thing in the world. After all, the polls are getting closer—and so are Maya and Jamie. Mastering local activism is one thing. Navigating the cross-cultural romance of the century is another thing entirely.
Why We Can’t Wait
What’s not to be excited about? We đź’– both Becky Albertalli and Aisha Saeed. We love opposites attract stories. We love this cover. We love diverse reads. Gah! Can we have this book already?
So, like totally tell us what’s got you bouncing in anticipation this week. What are you waiting on?
