Where’d You Go, Bernadette by Maria Semple Book Giveaway


Thanks to my dear friend Anna at Little Brown and Company I am going to be giving away 3 copies of “Where’d You Go, Bernadette” by Maria Semple.

About the Book

Bernadette Fox is notorious. To her Microsoft-guru husband, she’s a fearlessly opinionated partner; to fellow private-school mothers in Seattle, she’s a disgrace; to design mavens, she’s a revolutionary architect, and to 15-year-old Bee, she is a best friend and, simply, Mom.

Then Bernadette disappears. It began when Bee aced her report card and claimed her promised reward: a family trip to Antarctica. But Bernadette’s intensifying allergy to Seattle–and people in general–has made her so agoraphobic that a virtual assistant in India now runs her most basic errands. A trip to the end of the earth is problematic.

To find her mother, Bee compiles email messages, official documents, secret correspondence–creating a compulsively readable and touching novel about misplaced genius and a mother and daughter’s role in an absurd world.

Please enter via the Rafflecopter form below.  Please remember that these giveaways are only open to US and Canadian residents, and no P.O. Boxes please.

Thanks and good luck!

  • My favorite book of all time is Cat's Cradle by Kurt Vonnegut! I love all of his work!

  • As much as I want to name a classic for pretentious reasons, I will go with Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Roald Dhal. It was my first favorite book when I was like six or seven, and it introduced me to the delights of reading. I still reread Dahl’s oeuvre throughout the year. It makes me happy, and nostalgic.
    Any writer who can get a seven year old to sit still for an hour and devour a story is doing something very right.

    My favorite book is definitely The Lord of the Rings, I supposed.

    Please count me in. Thanks a lot.
