The winner of E. Lockhart's The Disreputable History of Frankie Landau Banks is... Hannah S.! Send me your address, H.This week, I'm giving away a copy of Looks by Madeleine George. Here's the thing: This book felt so real that it made me uncomfortable. The way Madeleine captures the feeling of a high school classroom, the emotions that come with a friendship lost, the observations that the quiet kids make each day... all so palpable here. I loved it!
That's why I read it on my honeymoon, almost without stopping. Here's me on the Sunset Coast in Nova Scotia, photographing the book instead of the romantic beach.
To enter for a chance to win this book, just comment below and tell me what the best book you read this summer was... this one may be at the top of my list!
Oh, and there are two covers (hardcover on left, paperback on right) that look so similar but have slight differences. I love both--I think they're really elegant.
PS-Something weird is going on with my comments (sorry). So if you post and it doesn't show up, that probably just means I have to dig it out later, and I will!
