I hope everyone is enjoying the holiday break! Today’s cover pick is Wolves, Boys, and Other Things That Might Kill Me by Kristen Chandler, released in 2010.
Here’s a description:
KJ Carson lives an outdoor lover’s dream. The only daughter of a fishing and wildlife guide, KJ can hold her own on the water or in the mountains near her hometown outside Yellowstone National Park. But when she meets the shaggy-haired, intensely appealing Virgil, KJ loses all self-possession. And she’s not sure if it’s a good thing or a bad thing that they’re assigned to work together on a school newspaper article about the famous wolves of Yellowstone. As KJ spends time with Virgil, she also spends more time getting to know a part of her world that she always took for granted…and she begins to see herself and her town in a whole new light.
This is a fun cover. The colors in the font hint that it’s for young readers (as does the picture of the lonely-looking girl), but the wolf at the top is just silly. What do you think?
I got a Barnes and Nobles gift card for Christmas. I was wondering if you could suggest some books I could get. I mostly read fiction books… I know thats a not very specific but I’ll read anything that sounds interesting, I’m open to different things. So far I’m going to get “The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat by Oliver Sacks.”
Plague Town and The Monstrumologist, if you haven’t read them already. They were two favorites that I discovered this year. :) I have reviews up (spoiler-free) if you’re interested in knowing more about them!
