I AM EXCITED TO ANNOUNCE TODAY'S
AUDIO BOOK CHOICE.....
*******************************************
EVERY EXQUISITE THING
Read by Vanessa Johansson
BY MATTHEW QUICK
ABOUT THE AUDIO BOOK:
Nanette O'Hare is an unassuming teen who has played the role of dutiful
daughter, hardworking student, and star athlete for as long as she can
remember. But when a beloved teacher gives her his worn copy of The Bubblegum Reaper--a mysterious, out-of-print cult classic--the rebel within Nanette awakens.
As she befriends the reclusive author, falls in love with a young but troubled poet, and attempts to insert her true self into the world with wild abandon, Nanette learns the hard way that rebellion sometimes comes at a high price.
A celebration of the self and the formidable power of story, Every Exquisite Thing is Matthew Quick at his finest.

I read some reviews about this book and I connected with the reviewers who liked this book. I love the advise that was given over and over again in different reviews. "Just because you are good at something, it doesn't mean that you should do it". I like that main character is a rebel too.

On his website, I saw that this book has been translated into "Dutch, German, Spanish, Portuguese (Portugal and Brazil), French, Polish, Turkish, and published in the UK by Headline". It must be resignating with teens around the world.
