Waiting on Wednesday: The Hating Game

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases we're eagerly anticipating. My "can't wait to read" pre-pub this week is:

The Hating Game
by Talli Roland
Publication Dates: 1 December 2010 (ebook)
9 March 2011 (print)
When man-eater Mattie Johns agrees to star on a dating game show to save her ailing recruitment business, she's confident she'll sail through to the end without letting down the perma-guard she's perfected from years of her love 'em and leave 'em dating strategy.

After all, what can go wrong with dating a few losers and hanging out long enough to pick up a juicy £50,000 prize?

Plenty, Mattie discovers, when it's revealed that the contestants are four of her very unhappy exes.

Can Mattie confront her past to get the prize money she so desperately needs, or will her exes finally wreak their long-awaited revenge? And what about the ambitious TV producer whose career depends on stopping her from making it to the end?
[Goodreads]

This sounds like such a fab read I can't wait to get my hands on a copy.

So tell me, what book are you waiting on this week?

  24. This will be a fun read. How will one react if she's confronted with exes that she just tossed around?

  25. Thanks for stopping by my blog and wow - you're right - that book does sound fab (though I don't envy Mattie, lol).

    ReplyDelete
  26. LOL, ok, reading the description explains why there is such a disgustingly cute cover on something called The Hating Game XD Very cute, I like it... and I'm suspecting that at least one of them doesn't *really* hate her XD

    Check out my pick HERE!
