Hi everybody! Thanks for stopping by. Today’s post is ‘Waiting on Wednesday’ which is a weekly blog feature hosted by Jill over at Breaking the Spine which spotlights upcoming releases that we’re super excited about.
Twisted Sistersby Jen LancasterExpected publication: February 4th 2014 by NAL Hardcover
New York Times bestselling author Jen Lancaster is “as adept at fiction as she is at telling her own stories” (Publishers Weekly, starred review). And now in her new novel, reality gets an unreal makeover…
Reagan Bishop is a pusher. A licensed psychologist who stars on the Wendy Winsberg cable breakout show I Need a Push, Reagan helps participants become their best selves by urging them to overcome obstacles and change behaviors. An overachiever, Reagan is used to delivering results.
Despite her overwhelming professional success, Reagan never seems to earn her family’s respect. Her younger sister, Geri, is and always will be the Bishop family favorite. When a national network buys Reagan’s show, the pressures for unreasonably quick results and higher ratings mount. But Reagan’s a clinician, not a magician, and fears witnessing her own personal failings in prime time. (And seriously? Her family will never let her hear the end of it.) Desperate to make the show work and keep her family at bay, Reagan actually listens when the show’s New Age healer offers an unconventional solution….
Record Nielsen ratings follow. But when Reagan decides to use her newfound power to teach everyone a lesson about sibling rivalry, she’s the one who will be schooled….
I love Jen Lancaster’s memoirs and I loved her recent fictional novel ‘Here I Go Again‘ so naturally I’m highly anticipating this one. Sounds a bit more serious that her other novels but I’m still intrigued!
What are you waiting on this Wednesday?

I've always waned to read a book by Lancaster and Twisted Sisters sounds absolutely fantastic! I'm really interested in finding out what Reagan actually does to bring up ratings! Great pick Bonnie! 🙂
This one's new to me! Doesn't really sound like my kind of read but I hope you enjoy it!
Here's my WoW
Have a GREAT day!

I haven't read anything by this author before, and a book like this normally wouldn't draw me in, but I am quite curious about this one actually. I enjoy reading about sibling relationships, particularly where sisters are involved. I hope you enjoy it when you get to read it! 🙂

Nice. I'm actually not familiar with this author at all, so it is nice to hear more about her and her work. I really like the cover.

Thanks! Jen is a really entertaining author. I really enjoyed Here I Go Again.. super funny.
Thanks, Sam! I typically wouldn't read a book like this either I don't think but I've read so many books by this author that I figure it's worth a shot. 🙂
Not my normal type of read either but I really love this author!
Here I Go Again is so good, I really really liked that one which was a bit of a surprise. Her memoirs are pretty entertaining too but I'm becoming a bigger fan of her fiction.
