Welcome to Day 8 of the 16 Blogging Days of Winter Challenge. Today is all about finding objects that represent books. I have two to share with you today, but feel free to comment with any of your own ideas.

I think sunglasses really represent My Life Next Door because it is certainly a summer read. Reading that book always make me feel like I am relaxing out on a sunny beach, no matter where I am when I’m reading it. For This Lullaby, the iPod really represents the book because music plays a huge role in the characters’ daily lives. 

What do you think of my representations? What are some other objects you think represent books? Let me know!

What I Thought Was True by Huntley Fitzpatrick

Expected publication: April 15, 2014  what i thought was true 

Summary: 

From the author of My Life Next Door comes a swoony summertime romance full of expectation and regret, humor and hard questions.
Gwen Castle’s Biggest Mistake Ever, Cassidy Somers, is slumming it as a yard boy on her Nantucket-esque island this summer. He’s a rich kid from across the bridge in Stony Bay, and she hails from a family of fishermen and housecleaners who keep the island’s summer people happy. Gwen worries a life of cleaning houses will be her fate too, but just when it looks like she’ll never escape her past—or the island—Gwen’s dad gives her some shocking advice. Sparks fly and secret histories unspool as Gwen spends a gorgeous, restless summer struggling to resolve what she thought was true—about the place she lives, the people she loves, and even herself—with what really is. 

A magnetic, push-me-pull-me romance with depth, this is for fans of Sarah Dessen, Jenny Han, and Deb Caletti.

I thought My Life Next Door was a beautifully written contemporary with a great plot and amazing characters. I was ecstatic when I heard about her newest book. Huntley Fitzpatrick’s debut really impressed me and put all of her future books on my must-buy list.

Fitzpatrick’s covers are just as gorgeous as the story inside. I am in love with these covers. 

Did you read My Life Next Door? What did you think? And are these covers beautiful or what?
