Welcome to the Splash Into Summer Giveaway Hop ~ May 25th till the 31st! Hosted by I am a Reader, Not a Writer and Page Turner’s Blog. (To access our host’s original post for the hop, please link to her site via the badge above).
There’s nothing better than reading a special book on a warm day. What’s even better is winning a great summer read. We have such a book for you that will be released in a few days. It even has summer in its title. How fun is that?
The Book of Summers ~ by Emylia Hall; May 29th 2012; Mira.
Blurb: Beth Lowe has been sent a parcel. Inside is a letter informing her that her long-estranged mother has died, and a scrapbook Beth has never seen before. Entitled The Book of Summers, it’s stuffed with photographs and mementos compiled by her mother to record the seven glorious childhood summers Beth spent in rural Hungary.
It was a time when she trod the tightrope between separated parents and two very different countries; her bewitching but imperfect Hungarian mother and her gentle, reticent English father; the dazzling house of a Hungarian artist and an empty-feeling cottage in deepest Devon. And it was a time that came to the most brutal of ends the year Beth turned sixteen.
Since then, Beth hasn’t allowed herself to think about those years of her childhood. But the arrival of The Book of Summers brings the past tumbling back into the present; as vivid, painful and vital as ever.
