I've read this book twice and it is super good people, super good. Are you ready for the cover? Because it is beautiful:
Gorgeous, amirite?
Now you want to know what the book is about, dontcha? Here's the blurb:
All Kate wants is to live. Battling cystic fibrosis is hard enough, dying from it is even harder. When her mom moves them closer to the hospital in the middle of her senior year, Kate’s determined to isolate herself—saving everyone the trouble of befriending a dying girl. It’s a difficult task when cheerful optimist Giana insists on being Kate’s friend.
Kate’s resolve falters even more when curly-haired Kyler captivates her with his sweet melodies. As her emotional walls collapse, Kate realizes the people she’s been pushing away may be the ones giving her a reason to live. But it might be too late.
NOTE: Half of all proceeds will be donated to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.
CHANGING FATE comes out on May 8, 2014. You can find Michelle on Twitter here on Facebook here or at her blog here. Can't wait to see this book as a real book! Congrats Michelle!
And for my C song of the day... one of my favorite Michael Buble songs, and one I could imagine Kyler singing.
Close Your Eyes by Michael Buble

I think I'd be drawn to a cover like that if I were to see it at a bookstore :D And I love the fact that half the proceeds will be donated to Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. That's so awesome. And the song, ah, I love it.
ReplyDeleteThe colors on that cover are amazing!
ReplyDeleteOh, that's a GORGEOUS cover! I love the inclusion of CF, and the proceeds going to the foundation - a very worthy cause, I hope the book becomes an instant best seller, for the author's and the foundation's sake :) Very cool use of 'C'!
