Book Watch: Just One Day by Gayle Forman.

This week’s book watch comes from an author who’s last two books that I read by her, I absolutely loved.  She created some characters that I loved so very much and I have every faith that I will love her new books as well.  With some authors, you can just tell, you know?

Here’s the book that I’m very much looking forward to.

A breathtaking journey toward self-discovery and true love, from the author of If I Stay. 

When sheltered American good girl Allyson “LuLu” Healey first meets laid-back Dutch actor Willem De Ruiter at an underground performance of Twelfth Night in England, there’s an undeniable spark. After just one day together, that spark bursts into a flame, or so it seems to Allyson, until the following morning, when she wakes up after a whirlwind day in Paris to discover that Willem has left. Over the next year, Allyson embarks on a journey to come to terms with the narrow confines of her life, and through Shakespeare, travel, and a quest for her almost-true-love, to break free of those confines.  

Just One Day is the first in a sweepingly romantic duet of novels. Willem’s story—Just One Year—is coming soon!

Wow, to fall in love with a guy after just one amazing day and then wake up to find him gone? Man, that sounds like an amazing story.  A story that will plant itself right inside my heart and I’m so very anxious to read this book.  I’ve been seeing some good buzz about this book around the blogosphere so I’ve got ants in my pants for this one.  I.cannot.wait.

There’s not a long wait for this book, it comes out on January 8, 2013 so really, woo hoo! That’s just in a few weeks.  Yay!

Who else is looking forward to this book?
