Title: Roomies
Author: Sara Zarr & Tara Altebrando
Publisher: Little, Brown Books for Young Readers
Release Date: December 24, 2013{purchase}
Description: It’s time to meet your new roomie.
When East Coast native Elizabeth receives her freshman-year roommate assignment, she shoots off an e-mail to coordinate the basics: television, microwave, mini-fridge. That first note to San Franciscan Lauren sparks a series of e-mails that alters the landscape of each girl’s summer — and raises questions about how two girls who are so different will ever share a dorm room.
As the countdown to college begins, life at home becomes increasingly complex. With family relationships and childhood friendships strained by change, it suddenly seems that the only people Elizabeth and Lauren can rely on are the complicated new boys in their lives . . . and each other. Even though they’ve never met.

Awesome pick, Andi! I love Sara Zarr’s book and how fun to read about new college roommates. Yay for NG approvals too 🙂
I love books with college settings – hope this one’s as interesting as it sounds! Thanks for checking out my Wow this week. 🙂
For some reason this kind of reminds me of FANGIRL (even though they’re totally different, and I LOVED FANGIRL). But it looks good, and I like the cover! Thanks for stopping by!

Yup, this one sounds totally cute! Congrats on scoring a digital copy! I’ll be curious to read some early reviews for it. Thanks for stopping by!
Nice! I got pre-approval on NetGalley too, but I ended up missing out on downloading it. Haha! But it sounds pretty cool!
Nice, a college girl drama. That sounds relatable, especially from the perspective of someone who’s had a roommate before. I’m excited too; thanks for sharing! I love the cute cover; it reminds me of a lot of college art that I’ve seen.
