Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that you're eagerly anticipating.
Released September 7, 2010
Part of the reason I want to read this book is just for the title alone. The DUFF is the Designated Ugly Fat Friend and I cannot tell you how many times I was always that girl. It seems like it could be a fun read and falling for the person you hate is always fun especially when there's lots of tension and chemistry.
From Goodreads:
Seventeen-year-old Bianca Piper is cynical and loyal, and she doesn't think she's the prettiest of her friends by a long shot. She's also way too smart to fall for the charms of man-slut and slimy school hottie Wesley Rush. In fact, Bianca hates him. And when he nicknames her "Duffy," she throws her Coke in his face.
But things aren't so great at home right now. Desperate for a distraction, Bianca ends up kissing Wesley. And likes it. Eager for escape, she throws herself into a closeted enemies-with-benefits relationship with Wesley.
Until it all goes horribly awry. It turns out that Wesley isn't such a bad listener, and his life is pretty screwed up, too. Suddenly Bianca realizes with absolute horror that she's falling for the guy she thought she hated more than anyone.
Thanks for the WoW, Crystal! I hope you enjoy DUFF when it comes out!

I agree with you the title alone is one that has me curious.

Thanks for checking out my WoW post! You're right, the title alone of DUFF is interesting. Plus it's a story with a love-hate relationship and that's always fun. Hope you enjoy reading this when it comes out!
