Ok, so I'm super duper excited that Miriam at Hachette is hosting this giveaway because I ADORED THIS BOOK! I don't remember enough to post a review right now but this gives me the perfect excuse to re read it to do so. So we have 5 copies of The Smart One and the Pretty One to give away. What's it about and what do others think?
"This sparkling novel about two sisters is both witty and stylish. Even if you don't have a sister of your own, you won't be able to resist LaZebnik's charming take on modern relationships. Read it!"
- Holly Peterson, bestselling author of The Manny
When Ava Nickerson was a child, her mother jokingly betrothed her to a friend's son, and the contract the parents made has stayed safely buried for years. Now that still-single Ava is closing in on thirty, no one even remembers she was once "engaged" to the Markowitz boy. But when their mother is diagnosed with cancer, Ava's prodigal little sister Lauren comes home to
Frustrated and embarrassed by Ava's constant lectures about financial responsibility (all because she's in a little debt. Okay, a lot of debt), Lauren decides to do some sisterly interfering of her own and tracks down her sister's childhood fiancé. When she finds him, the highly inappropriate, twice-divorced, but incredibly charming Russell Markowitz is all too happy to re-enter the Nickerson sisters' lives, and always-accountable Ava is forced to consider just how binding a contract really is . . .
No PO Boxes, US and Canada only please. To enter, tell me what sib you were: the quiet one, the outgoing, athletic, overachiever, underachiever and so on. Extra entry if you're a follower Contest will run through September 25th.

Between my sister and me, I've always been the perfectionist -- and she used to be the more "rebellious" one. Things have since mellowed out, though! :)
