In light of Tuesday's Armitage lovefest post, I thought it only right to point you to this little gem today. I love it so much I want to hug it. It's not long, but it's guaranteed to brighten your day. Thanks to Larissa for the link!
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 Wovenfirst 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 bizarre year in Arizon…
I enjoyed that very much!

ReplyDeleteMedical Librarian, my pleasure. I couldn't resist, once I read it. :)
Amy, my thoughts exactly. Genius!
Those devils! JT and FD are rather similar, aren't they? My heart belongs to Thornton, however, and his many coloured cravats.
