I've got another upcoming fall release cover to reveal for you guys this morning, so before we really get to the what's it about, etc, let's just get to the gorgeous thing you're here for:
Is that cover not absolutely gorgeous? I love it, and I will say, it absolutely fits with the book in so many ways. So what is this book about? I've got the summary for you, but take my word that you don't want to miss this one. There's so much sweetness and roughness mixed in to one aching yet satisfying story. It's an amazing book. But what else would you expect from the author of one of my favorite books ever? Oh, and Seth fans? There's some Freefall Easter eggs in this one...
Now for the summary!
Sometimes hiding the truth requires more than a lie . . .
From the outside, Coley Sterling’s life seems pretty normal . . . whatever that means. It’s not perfect—her best friend is seriously mad at her and her dance team captains keep giving her a hard time—but Coley’s adorable, sweet crush Reece helps distract her from the annoying drama. Plus, she has a great family to fall back on—with a stepdad and mom who would stop at nothing to keep her and her siblings happy and safe.
But Coley has a lot of secrets. She won’t admit—not even to herself—that her almost-perfect life is her own carefully-crafted façade. That for years she’s been burying the shame and guilt over a relationship that crossed the line. Now, Coley and Reece are getting closer, and as Coley has the chance at her first real boyfriend, a decade’s worth of lies are on the verge of unraveling.
Live Through This is hitting shelves October 2, 2012 from Simon Pulse, so make sure you keep it on your radar! And in the meantime, you should totally leave a comment to let Mindi know what you think of her new cover.
LOVE! oh my goodness I have been on the edge of my seat for her next book. As you know, Freefall is one of my favorites! This one sounds just as intense. That cover is stunning & packs so much emotion.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Ginger! I'm so thrilled to hear this! :-)
DeleteI want this book immediately!! It sounds like it will be amazing and I LOVE SETH, so even the hint that he makes an appearance makes me happy. Freefall was one of my favorite books in 2010 and I am desperately wanting to read this one soon! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteHi Joli! I'm so glad you feel that way about Freefall and that you are excited for this one too!
DeleteI don't want to get your hopes up of seeing Seth, BUT there are definitely some fun little things that you'll spot showing how Coley's life and Seth's intersect! :-)
GORGEOUS! Mindi, I'm so excited about this cover and this book!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Leah! :-)

ReplyDeleteBee,

Mindi is such a great writer and I really enjoyed Freefall. Can't wait to read this!
ReplyDeleteAwww, thanks Margie! Right back at ya! ♥
DeleteOoo Mindi! I love this! The cover is so pretty. I loved Freefall so much, so I'm not worried one bit that this won't be just as fantastic!! I can't wait to get my hands on a copy. Do we really have to wait till Oct??? Not fair teasing us so early in the year!! Lol
ReplyDeleteGood luck with this one, I'm sure it will be a hit!
Hi Loni!
DeleteThanks so much! I hope you'll like it!
In some ways, October sounds like forever away. For me, though, it sounds like it is coming up SO SOON. I've only been done done with LTT since the end of 2011, so everything feels like it's happening so quickly.
GORGEOUS!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! :-)
DeleteGreat premise, eye-catching cover - congrats on all counts! The title makes me smile, because there was a TV show of the same name, and that was the first show to license a song I co-wrote!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I am super excited about the title. I wasn't sure when I started using it if the publisher would be onboard, but they totally have been from the start!
DeleteGlad to hear they've been so supportive!
DeleteThanks for sharing this and congrats to Mindi!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Angelina! :-)
DeleteNice. Coley is one of my fave names
ReplyDeleteHi Liana - I like the name Coley, too. I actually named the character after a cat we had when I was a kid. :-)
DeleteLovely cover! I can't wait to read it :) October is soo far away!
ReplyDeleteHi Jessica! I'm so glad you're looking forward to it. And, ha, it feels so soon to me!
DeleteThe cover is stunning! And I love the summary! Congrats to Mindi! :D

DeleteGorgeous cover! And if the book is even half as good as FREEFALL, it will be a total winner.
