Hey there! Today I'm guest blogging over at See Michelle Read. As part of her extremely fun Literary Love event, I'm spotlighting one of my very favorite couples from contemporary fiction. Can you guess which couple I chose? Stop by and tell us if you're a fan of the slow burn, too.
I fell in love with the cover of Alexandra Bracken 's debut novel-- Brightly Woven --last fall and the scant synopses I could find at the time certainly piqued my interest. After managing to get my hands on an ARC, I found myself surprised and pleased with this unique fantasy. You can read my review here . As the release date approached, I invited Alex to participate in an interview and giveaway here on the site and, despite her crazy busy schedule, she kindly accepted. Enjoy! First things first: When did the idea for Brightly Woven first hit you and what (if anything) did you know right off the bat? I remember the exact moment it hit me—what I was doing, who I was talking to, what song was playing on iTunes. :) I had just come back from Winter Break my sophomore year in college and was sitting on my bed chatting with my mom. Sophomore year was pretty remarkable in terms of the insane weather that we had in Virginia (where I was in school) but it had also been a bizar...

Haha I did indeed guess. Great post Angie.
ReplyDeleteAs always I am so in love with your couple of choice. I need to go back and reread a couple of scenes in particular...
ReplyDeleteThanks again for being a part of LL!
Alexa, well done you! I'm so transparent...
ReplyDeleteMichelle, thank you so much for having me! It was a blast. I'm there anytime you require some gushing.
By the way - did this and voted John Thornton and Margaret Hale as my fav couple. :)
