We’re super excited to be giving away this extremely charming book — it’s perfect for your poolside reading. (Poolside reading happens soon, right? Los Angeles has been cold.)

THE PRIZE: In addition to a hardback copy of Two Summers, I also have a SUPER cute makeup bag for our lucky winner! As for the book itself, behold:

ONE SUMMER in the French countryside, among sun-kissed fields of lavender . . .
ANOTHER SUMMER in upstate New York, along familiar roads that lead to surprises . . .
When Summer Everett makes a split-second decision, her summer divides into two parallel worlds. In one, she travels to France, where she s dreamed of going: a land of chocolate croissants, handsome boys, and art museums. In the other, she remains home, in her ordinary suburb, where she expects her ordinary life to continue but nothing is as it seems.  In both summers, she will fall in love and discover new sides of herself. What may break her, though, is a terrible family secret, one she can’t hide from anywhere. In the end, it might just be the truth she needs the most.

THE TASK: I will pick the winner at random, but to keep it fun, tell us where you’d most like to spend the summer — if price and logistics were no object.

THE RULES: All entries must be posted in the comments of this post by 9 p.m. Pacific time on Thursday.  FYI, if this is the first time you’ve commented here, the system will automatically kick you into comment moderation, but don’t worry, I will rescue you. (Prizing courtesy of the publisher; open to everyone. Thank you!)
