Willow by Julia Hoban, which you might remember as my 2nd favorite book of 2009, releases today in paperback. For those who haven't heard about it, here's the summary:
Seven months ago, on a rainy March night, sixteen-year- old Willow's parents drank too much wine and asked her to drive them home. They never made it—Willow lost control of the car and her parents died in the accident. Now she has left behind her old home, friends, and school, and blocks the pain by secretly cutting herself. But when Willow meets Guy, a boy as sensitive and complicated as she is, she begins an intense, life-changing relationship that turns her world upside down.
Told in an arresting, fresh voice, Willow is an unforgettable novel about one girl's struggle to cope with tragedy, and one boy's refusal to give up on her.
You can get the book from Barnes and Nobles, Borders, and Amazon for 8.99 and from Book Depository for 7.99, as well as other places. If you haven't read it yet, I highlyhighly recommend you do. It's a book you'll never forget. If you have read it, you know how amazing it is so please consider either buying yourself a copy if you don't have one or buy one for a friend. Remember, books make great gifts.
If anyone does buy a copy and emails me the receipt (harmonybookreviews[at]yahoo[dot]com), I'll send you a swag bag full of awesome goodies!
