Title: How My Summer Went Up in Flames
Author: Jennifer Salvato Doktorski
Series: stand-alone
Publisher: Simon Pulse
Publication Date: May 7, 2013

Rosie’s always been impulsive. She didn’t intend to set her cheating ex-boyfriend’s car on fire. And she never thought her attempts to make amends could be considered stalking. So when she’s served with a temporary restraining order on the first day of summer vacation, she’s heartbroken—and furious.

To put distance between Rosie and her ex, Rosie’s parents send her on a cross-country road trip with responsible, reliable neighbor Matty and his two friends. Forget freedom of the road, Rosie just wants to hitchhike home and win back her ex. But with every mile marker that passes, Rosie discovers a new sense of self…and that sometimes the best revenge is moving on.

Why I'm waiting:  I lovelovelove road trip books!  Can never read too many, ya know?  Also, that cover is beyond cute and the whole reason for the road trip is totally outrageous.  And I'm sure there will be shenanigans.  Lots of 'em.  However, I must say, I wish my parents had considered a road trip as a form of punishment instead of, say, mucking out my uncle's barn.  Kids these days got it soooo easy.  :P
