“Waiting On” Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine.
My pick for this week is:
Body & Soul
by Stacey Kade
The Ghost and the Goth, Book #3
Expected Publication May 29, 2012
The Ghost
I’ve been trapped in the body of Lily “Ally” Turner for a month now. Talk about a fashion crisis on an epic scale. What worries me more, though, is sometimes I catch Will looking at me like he thinks I’m Lily…or that he wishes I were. Without the good looks of my former self, I don’t know who I am, or if who that is is good enough. I need out of this mess. Now.
Will and I have been looking for a solution, one that would separate me from Lily without killing her. But it’s not going well. Then, when it seems like things couldn’t get any worse, we run into Misty, my former best friend and boyfriend-stealer extraordinaire, who claims she’s being haunted…by me. Seriously?
I’m determined to get to the bottom of who’s pretending to be the spirit of Alona Dare (while I’m pretending to be someone else) and then get the heck out of this body. Or die trying…
The Goth
I’ll admit it. It’s really weird to look at Alona but see Lily. I do know the difference, though, contrary to what Alona might be saying. And Alona is more than a pretty face to me, not that she would believe that.
Our one lead for some help in this messed up situation might be a page torn from the yellow pages-—the “Psychics” section-—I found in my dad’s stuff. One of the “fakes” seems a bit more real-—and odd-—than the others. Before I can investigate further, though, Alona is off and chasing a ghost that’s probably nothing more than a figment of Misty’s guilty imagination. Now Lily’s family is freaking out because she didn’t come home, my mom is ordering me to stay out of it, and something is definitely wrong with the person formerly known as Lily “Ally” Turner…
So… I LOVE, and I do mean LOVE, this series so far. Will and Alona are some of my all-time favorite book characters and their “on-page” chemistry is just some of the funniest and acerbic yet sweet and poignant I’ve had the pleasure of reading. Kade has done a fabulous job with this series thus far and I’m excited to see where she takes it in Body & Soul.
So what are you looking forward to this week?
this series look good

It is a good one!
It’s AWESOME. Thanks for stopping by!
Still have to read the first two ! but I like the cover!
Feel free to check out my WOW
Krazyyme @ Young Readers
I LOVE this cover. The other covers have been so perfect depicting Will and Alona and I hope this cover is foreshadowing more of their relationship!
Whohoooo!! I didn’t know when the third book was coming out, or its cover, or its synopsis… And this Waiting on Wednesday made me day! I SO love this series. There’s something about goth guys that just works for me, and this time around the humor added by Alona rocks.
I’ll be waiting for this one too! Thanks for sharing, Dani!
I’m super excited about this book. Will is one of my all-time favorite book boys and Alona is hi-larious.
I’m so curious as to where Kade is going to take these two in this book since she set up a really interesting… um… problem in Queen of the Dead.
I didn’t even know this cover was revealed… I love it!! I do hope Will and Alona get their happy ending <3
Diana @ The Lovely Getaway
Oh… me too!
Stacey revealed the cover on her blog on… Monday? I think.
I like the cover too but it looks like… It’s not the real Alona and Will right? It’s fake. I wish they’ll change the cover picture. I want to see the real Alona and Will on this last the ghost and the goth novel. Man i love it so much. Hope they’ll do. Just like queen of the dead. They’ve got a new cover pic and it’s awesome. I like the way Alona sitting. She looks so adorable.
i love this series so far….i have read both books one and two and they are awesome, i totally can’t wait until the third and final book is published and released…..i am sooo excited…..i love the covers on all of the books, they’re awesome too……Stacey Kade is an awsome author
Body & Soul is SOOOOO good! And it released on the 1st, so it’s out! You should definitely get to your nearest bookstore ASAP and pick this one up
