We had maybe seen the cover (gorgeous) or heard the title (hehe) awhile ago, but like you said, this seems to have slipped under most people's radar, so we kind of forgot about it. Now we plan to check it out, though!We Heart YAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02418854853031344928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-530836089087964376.post-83862051674491135532013-07-04T00:28:27.995-07:002013-07-04T00:28:27.995-07:00This sounds like something that is really differen...This sounds like something that is really different than what I normally find in YA. What you said about it exploring the relationships between females is what really makes me want to read it. Wonderful review. Thanks for making me aware of this book! <br /><br />I also really like that you link to other reviews for another perspective. I sometimes do that when writing a review for a book I didn't care for.
