The Secret YearBy: Jennifer R. Hubbard
Pub date: January 12th, 2010
Seventeen-year-old Colt has been sneaking out at night to meet Julia, a girl from an upper-class neighborhood unlike his own. They’ve never told anyone else about their relationship: not their family or friends, and especially not Julia’s boyfriend.
When Julia dies suddenly, Colt tries to cope with her death while pretending that he never even knew her. He discovers a journal she left behind. But he is not prepared for the truths he discovers about their intense relationship, nor to pay the price for the secrets he’s kept.

ReplyDeleteI agree Staci, 2010 feels like a long while away. Although, it comes out right at the beginning of the new year so that's a pretty good thing. :D
ReplyDeleteThis book looks fantastic!

ReplyDeleteAhhh I cannot wait for this one (too bad it's a 2010 release). I definitely know what you mean with the cover - the pure black and the cropping are just perfect.
