Claim To Fame by Margaret Peterson Haddix
It was a talent that came out of nowhere. One day, Lindsay Scott was on the top of the world, the child star of a hit TV show. The next day her fame had turned into torture. Every time anyone said anything about her, anywhere in the world, she heard it: praise, criticism, back-stabbing… Lindsay had what looked like a nervous breakdown and vanished from the public eye. Now she’s sixteen, and a tabloid newspaper claims that her own father is holding her hostage. The truth is much stranger, but that tabloid article sets off a chain of events that forces Lindsay to finally confront who she really is.
My Thoughts:
That would be such an awful thing to hear everything people said about you, don't you think? Though, it does still make for a good book idea, making Claim To Fame a book to read in my opinion. :) Though, I'm not the biggest fan of the cover.
Claim To Fame will be released November 10, 2009.
That would be torture! Like I (or anyone) really needs to know when is badmouthing them!
ReplyDeleteThis book definitely sounds interesting and it's going on my must-have list. :)
I like the sound of this, but like you, I'm not keen on the cover. Great pick!
ReplyDeleteI'm a Haddix fan. I knew the second in her new series was out, but I didn't know she had something else coming out. Thanks for the information.

Thanks for sharing this! I didn't know she had another book coming out beyond her Missing series. I'll be sharing this with my students for sure.
