Waiting on Wednesday (18): The Mockingbirds

"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill @ Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

Title: The Mockingbirds
{goodreads}
Author: Daisy Whitney
Release Date: November 2nd 2010
Why? To Kill A Mockingbird. Whitney is so sweet. Love the cover. Love the concept. Watched the trailers. Great reviews. Just haven't bought a copy yet!! :\

Synopsis (Goodreads):


Some schools have honor codes.
Others have handbooks.
Themis Academy has the Mockingbirds.


Themis Academy is a quiet boarding school with an exceptional student body that the administration trusts to always behave the honorable way--the Themis Way. So when Alex is date raped during her junior year, she has two options: stay silent and hope someone helps her, or enlist the Mockingbirds--a secret society of students dedicated to righting the wrongs of their fellow peers.

In this honest, page-turning account of a teen girl's struggle to stand up for herself, debut author Daisy Whitney reminds readers that if you love something or someone--especially yourself--you fight for it.
