A Song for Julia is the second book in the Thompson Sisters series, a New Adult Contemporary series I'm getting seriously addicted to. If you recall, I read the first book, Just Remember to Breathe, a while ago and I really loved it (my review). Julia is Alex's older sister, we met her briefly in Just Remember to Breathe and I was very excited to read her story as well! And it was even better than the first! I'll get on that in my review later, but for now, here's some info on the book and a huge giveaway for you!
A Song for Julia (Thompson Sisters)
by Charles Sheehan-Miles
Release date: December 5th 2012
by Cincinnatus Press
Format: Paperback, 374 pages
Goodreads:
Everyone should have something to rebel against.
Crank Wilson left his South Boston home at sixteen to start a punk band and burn out his rage at the world. Six years later, he’s still at odds with his father, a Boston cop, and doesn’t ever speak to his mother. The only relationship that really matters is with his younger brother, but watching out for Sean can be a full-time job. The one thing Crank wants in life is to be left the hell alone to write his music and drive his band to success.
Julia Thompson left a secret behind in Beijing that exploded into scandal in Washington, DC, threatening her father's career and dominating her family's life. Now, in her senior year at Harvard, she's haunted by a voice from her past and refuses to ever lose control of her emotions again, especially when it comes to a guy.
When Julia and Crank meet at an anti-war protest in Washington in the fall of 2002, the connection between them is so powerful it threatens to tear everything apart.

nice blog you have here!thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway! Great blog!
ReplyDeleteFirst I said to myself... who is Tiffany? I read (again)your review for "Just remember..." and I read a second time the description of "A Song for Julia"... no Tiffany (I was sure I'll not find any, but it was necessary to check twice). So... doesn't matter who is Tiffany (if she is behind the blog tour and this amazing giveaway I'll thank her), because I like what you said in the review and I like the description of the second book. I must have them.
ReplyDeleteAND I was very, very, VERY GOOD girl and Santa promises me a lot of nice gifts. We must all help him and now is your turn to help him to give me one of those gifts I deserve.
Thanks for the giveaway
ReplyDeleteHappy Holidays,thanks for the awesome tour.
