Noticed you liked She's Come Undone, and I was wondering if you'd be interested in reviewing my new novel and posting your comments here as well as a few other book-related sites. Thought you might like my book since it's also about a disturbed young girl's downward spiral and a bit dark. I could e-mail you the novel in an e-book format if you'd like (I'm out of physical copies at the moment). Let me know if you're interested. Here's a link to a summary in case you're interested:

Thanks,

Hi, ghostwhire. I just joined Literature and Madness and left a couple of posts to see if we can get it moving again. I think you've got a great theme going on there!

Welcome to Books Compared. I can't remember if I already welcomed you, but hopefully a double welcome won't come amiss, if so. Hope you'll join the discussion, and perhaps feel inspired to contribute a comparison of your own sometime.

thanks! i finished it last week and want to re-read it. Have you seen Under the Sand, directed by Francois Ozon? The main character is a professor who is teaching The Waves... there are lots of really interesting references to the symbolism of the book... Cool library btw ;)
