DeleteI can't wait to hear your thoughts on My Life In Black & White. I'm going to put my review up tomorrow. It was hard one for me cause that book made me very angry. I hated her friends with a passion so my review is all over the place lol I teared up quite a bit during the book.
ReplyDeleteMy Stack
You know how much I heart you, right?
DeleteYou are so passionate about book characters, from love to hate (*Adrian-Zach-cough-cough*)
A Long Way From You sounds like some fluffy goodness! Maybe a nice summer vacation read? I could use that...and the vacation part!
ReplyDeleteThose books are charming and perfect summer reads. I'm pretty sure that I am hosting Gwendolyn Heasley on the blog the week of June 11 ABD giving away both books, so stop by!!!!
DeleteI'll be there!
DeleteOohh My Life in Black and White & The Waiting sky! They look like awesome summer contemps! Enjoy them all!

DeleteMY LIFE IN BLACK AND WHITE just hit my wish list. Love the cover & GR blurb.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad. It will also be up for grabs on Freebie Friday, as soon as I read it!
DeleteMy Life In Black and White was really well done! The author's writting is so...effortless. Hope you enjoy that one! And OMG!!! I LOVE Harper books. They are my fave! How did I not hear of A Long Way From Home before this? And the main character is a Texas girl too? Eeek! I need this book in my life! lol So glad you mentioned it or I'd never have known about it!
ReplyDeleteThose books are perfect for you -- you'd LOVE them. I hope to interview the author next week and give both books away!
DeleteThe Waiting Sky is the only one I have heard of the three. But I like the looks of the art in NYC one (of course:) It's good to be back, now I just have to catch up in my massive Google Reader;(
ReplyDeleteI bet you have a lot of catching up to do. Hope you enjoyed your break!
DeleteCan't wait to hear what you think of My Life In Black and White.
