Cover Reveal: THE CAVENDISH HOME FOR BOYS AND GIRLS!

28 Feb

Yes, you read that right!

Today is a huge day, y’all. For some time now, my debut novel, The Cavendish Home for Boys and Girls, has had a cover, and not just any cover, but a beautiful, perfect, just-what-I-imagined cover that made me scream and cry and spin around on my head and all those other undignified things that one does when one sees one’s story truly coming to life.

AND NOW I CAN SHARE THIS PIECE OF AWESOME WITH YOU.

The cover is being revealed today over at The Story Siren, along with a huge giveaway bundle, including a signed ARC! So head on over and check it out. I’d love to hear what you think!

Also, major props to the fabulous illustrator Sarah Watts and the rock star design team at Simon & Schuster Books For Young Readers, headed by Lucy Ruth Cummins, for making this moment so special.

And now I can no longer be expected to speak coherently because my excitema;dlkfja;slkej;lefasdf YAY YAY YAY

    CLAIRE! It is absolute perfection! I’m properly devestated that the giveaway is only for the US, because I can’t wait to get my hands on a copy. You must be so happy with it, it’s such a fantastic cover.

    I just signed up for the giveaway. So stoked for you, Claire. You deserve it. I, of course, would love to see your fantasy ms make it to the shelves some day, too, but that’s because I’m a buff. See you around!
