Hey Book Nerds! ^.^ How are you all doing today? The weather has been really nice the last few days, which is really nice, and really rare in the UK. :P We're probably getting our summer early again this year. The UK's weather never seems to follow proper protocol. xD Ah well. I'm looking forward to having a nice, lazy day today. Maybe just sit around in the sun and read. :) Lastly, I'd like to say; I'm nearly at 100 blog followers! :P Once I finally reach the big 100, I plan to do another giveaway - so make sure you follow my blog and get your friends too, as well - so you can all join in on the competition. That's it for today - I hope you're all having a great week so far, and I hope you all enjoy the rest of your day! :D
Title: Marie Antoinette, Serial Killer.
Author: Katie Alender.
Expected Publication: October 1st, 2013.
Publisher: Scholastic Press.
Format: Hardback, 304 pages.
Colette Iselin is excited to go to Paris on a class trip. She’ll get to soak up the beauty and culture, and maybe even learn something about her family’s French roots.
But a series of gruesome murders are taking place across the city, putting everyone on edge. And as she tours museums and palaces, Colette keeps seeing a strange vision: a pale woman in a ball gown and powdered wig, who looks suspiciously like Marie Antoinette.
Colette knows her popular, status-obsessed friends won’t believe her, so she seeks out the help of a charming French boy. Together, they uncover a shocking secret involving a dark, hidden history. When Colette realizes she herself may hold the key to the mystery, her own life is suddenly in danger . . .
First off, I just want to say that this cover is TOTALLY AWESOME! :D It's such a wonderful cover, I just love everything about it: the colours, the model, the typography - everything! ^.^ Secondly, I also think this book looks fantastic. :D I love murders and mysteries and everything along those lines - they're a bit addictive to read actually. :P It’s SUCH a shame that we have to wait until October for this awesome looking release. Why do publishers release such amazing covers WAY before the dead line? It’s not fair! xD What do you guys think of the looks of this book, have you heard of it before? :) Let me know! ^.^
