seize the book
welcome book lovers. each Friday myself and my BFF Ann from Romancing the Readers
(RTR) will be briefly featuring various book related topics.
we also blog together on Book Club Thursdays (aka BCT) and on Sundays (sunday spotlight).
today is friday favorites which means i get to feature a "favorite" of mine...
today, i'm talking about book covers - drop me a favorite one-
i don't care if you read the book, or read it and didn't care for it...i just want to see a cover a you LOVE
i've shared one below - plus i really did LOVE the book - in my opinion, it's a trifecta book - the cover, title and blurb all go together perfectly!
When stylish Hillary Whitney dies alone in a locked, windowless conference room at the offices of RAGE Fashion Book, her death is initially ruled an unfortunate side effect of the unrelenting pressure to be thin. But Hillary's best friend and fellow RAGE editor Catherine Ono knows her friend's dieting wasn't a capital P problem. If beauty could kill, it'd take more than that.
When two months later, a cryptic note in Hillary's handwriting ends up in the office of the NYPD and the case is reopened, Det. Mark Hutton is led straight into the glamorous world of RAGE and into the life of hot-headed and fiercely fabulous Cat, who insists on joining the investigation. Surrounded by a supporting cast of party girls, Type A narcissists and half- dead socialites, Cat and her colleague Bess Bonner are determined to solve the case and achieve sartorial perfection. But their amateur detective work has disastrous results, and the two ingénues are caught in a web of drugs, sex, lies and moisturizer that changes their lives forever.

Every weekday morning, as the sun rose above Sixth Avenue, a peerless crop of women-frames poised, behavior polished, networks connected, and bodies generally buffed to a high sheen-were herded by the cattle prod of their own ambition to one particular building. They're smart, stylish, and sophisticated, even the one found dead in her office.
