Waiting on Wednesday #3 - Same Difference by Siobhan Vivian

Emily is ready for a change. She's been in the same town with the same friends for a long time...and none of them really understand her art. But when she goes to Philadelphia for a summer art institute, she suddenly finds like-minded people. One in particular, Fiona, intrigues and challenges her. But there are some things Emily is going to have to find out for herself -- like what the balance is between life and art, and which is more important when push comes to shove.
Check out that lousy snyopsis from Amazon.

Um. It's Siobhan Vivian. I don't think anything else needs to be said. 
She's pretty much made of awesome and as this book just received a starred review from Kirkus, I think I might pee my pants waiting for March 1st. That release date could not come soon enough for me. 
And the cover? Beautiful. :)

    The girl on the cover reminds me a bit of Ellen Page.

    A while back a girl in my school told me that she discovered some books on goolge.She told me that the girl on the cover was looking rather familiar and that it looked very much like i did.So i asked her if she could put it on facebook so that i could cheque it out...when i saw the picture it was ME,really shocked and unexpected...
