Contest open May 19 – 26, 2009

Thanks to Michelle Richmond and Random House for providing a brand new, signed trade paperback of No One You Know (on sale today in bookstores) for giveaway on my blog! Last year I read Michelle’s novel The Year of Fog and loved it (read my review), so I am excited to offer my reader’s a chance to win her latest book.

About No One You Know (from the Publisher’s website):

All her life Ellie Enderlin had been known as Lila’s sister—until the day Lila, a top math student at Stanford, was murdered, and the shape of their family changed forever. Twenty years later, Ellie is a professional coffee buyer who has never put down roots. When, in a chance meeting, she comes into possession of the notebook that Lila carried everywhere, Ellie returns home to finally discover the truth about her sister’s death—a search that will lead her to Lila’s secret lover, to the motives and fate of a man who profited from their family’s grief, and ultimately to the deepest secrets even sisters keep from each other.

    I want to read this book because it sounds really great. It also sounds quite sad too. I also find it interesting that it’s about sisters.

    I want to read this book because it sounds like a good story. I enjoy books that include family relationships as subplots. It makes the characters seem more “real”.

  16. Les in NE says:

    Why do I want to read this? Because I trust your judgment and it sounds like something I can relate to. It will be interesting to read about a family’s grief from a sibling’s POV. How odd that I come across this post so soon to May 28th…

  23. Melanie says:

    I’d love to give Richmond a try since I never got around to reading A Year of Fog. I think this is something my book club might like because it sounds like it has some mystery. It’s hard to find good mysteries that make good discussion books.

    I want to read this book as I’m always searching for new material and authors to read. The excerpt above seems interesting enough… :)

  25. Joyce K. says:

    I read all the time, mostly thrillers and mysteries. I am always looking for new authors to read, and based on the plot would really like “No On You Know”.
