Embracing You, Embracing Me de Michelle Bellon

Embracing You, Embracing Me

Autor Michelle Bellon
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 apr 2012
Roshell, a girl from an Oregon trailer park, dances into a bright future despite life throwing a series of curveballs. This book is unmistakeably a product of the 90s - home of boy bands, individualism, teenage angst, Size Zero models, and "Whatever!". For teenagers now, it's a springboard into a vivacious past of not so long ago.

Notă biografică

Michelle Bellon is the author of The Complexity of a Soldier (July 2011) and His Salvation (March 2011). Born in Boise, Idaho in August of 1976, Michelle Bellon was raised by her loving mother and devoted grandmother who she claims is her biggest role model. Throughout her childhood she was stubborn, precocious and full of big dreams for her future. She dedicated much of her time to pursuing a career as a ballerina, but as she grew into a young woman, that drive and energy evolved into raising a family. She earned a degree as a registered nurse in 2005. Michelle lives in Washington with her husband and their four children.

Recenzii

"Another thing Bellon did that I particularly enjoyed was take an unabashed look at class structures in America. Roshell, a girl from a trailer park who is forced to look after her cousins and has no male role models in her life makes for a perfect glimpse into America's other half, especially as that other half continues to grow in size." - Robert Devenuti, HaveUHeard.net (Celebrity News) "Well this book definitely embraced me and I certainly embraced it back! A rollercoaster of emotions takes you through the ins and outs of this novel as you unravel the world alongside Roshell as maturation takes place. A beautiful novel from a talented author." - Epona Reviews Reader reviews on GoodReads: "WOW. A profoundly emotional book." "This was such an amazing book! It has twist and turns that you won't see coming. A truly emotional yet comical journey. Once you pick it up, you won't want to set it down." "The book is so well written that I was feeling all emotions." "It tackles some difficult subject matter and manages to still be funny and hopeful. I was hooked from the start."

Descriere

A love story emerges from the anguish of Roshell's life, and when she leaves high school and finds work at a casino, things don't get any less complicated for her, until a powerful dream marks out the exact path that she must take. This work has young adult humor and 1990s-style cultural aspirations, but surprises with some hard-hitting moments.
