Blind Spot by Laura Ellen
Seventeen-year-old Tricia Farni’s body floated to the surface of Alaska’s Birch River six months after the night she disappeared. The night Roz Hart had a fight with her. The night Roz can’t remember. Roz, who struggles with macular degeneration, is used to assembling fragments to make sense of the world around her. But this time it’s her memory that needs piecing together—to clear her name . . . to find a murderer. This unflinchingly emotional novel is written in the powerful first-person voice of a legally blind teen who just wants to be like everyone else.
I am so excited about this book! The story sounds fast paced, and totally original. And I am in love with this cover! Look for this one to come to a store near you on October 23, 2012!
What books are you looking forward to?
I'm so excited for this book, too! It sounds so gripping and emotional - the idea of a town blaming a blind girl of a murder has so many complexities there. Great pick!
