52 Days of 52 Reasons to Love Jessica Brody and Her Books
1 of the 52 Reasons to Love Jessica Brody and Her Books….for 51 other reasons, visit Teen Lit Rocks (August 26th), Reading Lark (August 28th), and Love YA Lit (August 29th), and stay tuned for more!
The
moment Jessica is most proud of: Definitely selling her first novel.
She quit her job as a financial analyst to focus on her writing (her
friends thought she was crazy!). She said she had to take all sorts of
random jobs off of Craigslist to keep herself afloat and totally
downgraded her lifestyle to make ends meet. But it was totally worth it.

About 52 Reasons to Hate My Father (FSG, July 2012)
Being America’s favorite heiress is a dirty job, but someone’s gotta do it.
Lexington
Larrabee has never to work a day in her life. After all, she’s the
heiress to the multi-billion-dollar Larrabee Media empire. And heiresses
are not supposed to work. But then again, they’re not supposed to crash
brand new Mercedes convertibles into convenience stores on Sunset Blvd
either.
Which is why, on Lexi’s eighteenth birthday,
her ever-absent, tycoon father decides to take a more proactive
approach to her wayward life. Every week for the next year, she will
have to take on a different low-wage job if she ever wants to receive
her beloved trust fund. But if there’s anything worse than working as a
maid, a dishwasher, and a fast-food restaurant employee, it’s dealing
with Luke, the arrogant, albeit moderately attractive, college intern
her father has assigned to keep tabs on her.
In a
hilarious “comedy of heiress” about family, forgiveness, good
intentions, and best of all, second chances, Lexi learns that love can
be unconditional, money can be immaterial, and, regardless of age,
everyone needs a little saving. And although she might have 52 reasons
to hate her father, she only needs one reason to love him.
Sounds fun. I like that her name is the name of the city I live in. I would never imagine it as a name but now that I hear, I must admit I like it.
