Lexi has always been beautiful, but her beauty is taken from her when she goes face-first through a car windshield. Now Lexi has to dig deep to figure out how to define herself. Help on her journey of self-discovery comes from unexpected sources: Ruth, Lexi’s sister, “the smart one” to Lexi’s “the pretty one,” with whom Lexi has never been close; and Theo, a classmate who is still recovering from his sister’s recent death from anorexia.
Why I can’t wait: I’ve seen this book a lot in the past few weeks and I have to say, I’m really excited about picking it up. Books with self-discovery themes and losing friends/family members have always interested me for some reason so I have a great feeling about My Life in Black and White!
What are you waiting on this week? Make sure to leave me a link below!

I’m waiting on this one as well. I love stories where character go through something traumatic and come out stronger on the other side. It sounds sad but also sweet and inspiring.

Great choice! I recognize the cover, but I hadn’t read the summary and WOW! Sounds amazing. I also think books about self-discovery are fascinating.
Adding this one TBR right now

This sounds incredibly intense and sad. I have to be in the right mood to read that kind of book, but it sounds really good!
Becky @ Stories & Sweeties recently posted..Waiting on Wednesday
I’ve been seeing this around too and it looks so good! I love the family element of a growing bond to the “smart” sister, an definitely love books where someone has to reconcile who they are with who they were. Also, this cover! It’s a bit weird but so intriguing.
Great pick! Thank you for stopping by
