Laurie Halse Anderson wrote one of my favorite books, Speak. Since then she has written many other wonderful books. Wintergirls is about a girl named Lia. She finds out that her former best friend Cassie is dead. Lia and Cassie always had a contest going to see who could be the skinniest. Lia is haunted by Cassie and tries to keep the weight on. The reviews that I have read, make it sound so amazing and a must read.
The cover is also astounding. The blue looks like ice and the glowing green eyes are just amazing. The look of unsureness is perfect and I love the cover.
Wintergirls will be releases on March 19th. I hope you check it out or Laurie's many other books. They are well written and very enjoyable. Her books are very true to any one's feelings in their situation.
Sorry for the lateness of the post. I have been watching Harry Potter Movies all day and playing on neopets.
Peace out, Sarah.
The cover is sort of haunting. The only thing I don't like is that big black area that is covering her other eye.
ReplyDeleteLove Harry Potter!
I didn't notice that. I guess because I have had side bangs in my eyes on about half of pictures. It could mean she is lost or hiding maybe.
ReplyDeleteOh wow, I hadn't seen this cover yet! I can't WAIT to read it.
ReplyDeleteI know Laurie's books are always amazing.
ReplyDeleteSpeak really disturbed me. Wintergirls sounds a bit tough to get through as well, but it seems interesting, so I'll have to add it to my list.
ReplyDeleteAwesome. I am so excited for it.
