So having just finished reading and reviewing Pink by Lili Wilkinson, I am passing it on to one of you to enjoy!
Summary from Goodreads:
"Ava has a secret. She is tired of her ultracool attitude, ultra-radical politics, and ultrablack clothing. She's ready to try something new—she's even ready to be someone new. Someone who fits in, someone with a gorgeous boyfriend, someone who wears pink.
Transferring to Billy Hughes School for Academic Excellence is the perfect chance to try on a new identity. But just in case things don't work out, Ava is hiding her new interests from her parents, and especially from her old girlfriend.
Secrets have a way of being hard to keep, though, and Ava finds that changing herself is more complicated than changing her wardrobe. Even getting involved in the school musical raises issues she never imagined. As she faces surprising choices and unforeseen consequences, Ava wonders if she will ever figure out who she really wants to be.
Humor, heart, and the joys of drama—on- and offstage—combine in Ava's delight-fully colorful journey of self-discovery."

PInk ... PInk ... what about the singer? Strictly speaking, she is not Pink - but isn't she awesome? Like, her songs, her attitude, the way she promotes female autonomy and power - I have to respect that!
Thanks!

I always buy the pink fabric softner at the store. Any brand, but the ones with the pink lids. That fabric softner always smells the best to me, I think the actual scent is april fresh. Gosh I'm weird, lol.

I love pink! But not baby pink. It has to be full on hot pink or neon pink! Yay!

P.S. My senior prom dress was BRIGHT freakin PINK. I still love it! Sometimes I bust it out for halloween and dress as a princess. LOL
I used to hate pink. I'm not exactly sure why though. Now I am a big fan. My bedspread is pink, orange, green, brown. It's one of my new favorite things.
Thanks for the awesome giveaway.

The book cover makes me want to say something like 'pink is the new black,' but to be honest, I've never been a very pink person. Though in my ever-growing age I have grown to appreciate the color. Plus, I love to buy pink collars for my dog and cat.

My favourite pink thing was my baby sister when she was born. She will be 2 1/2 on Tuesday and she is by far my favourite thing in my life. She loves Harry Potter, Wizard Rock, and Nerdfighteria. She's my little minion ^_^ <3 her

Mom says when I was a baby if you offered me a yellow (or any other color) toy or a pink toy I'd take the pink.
Also, I follow and am DYING for this book
Whenever I hear pink, I think of Shelby in Steel Magnolias doing her wedding in "Blush and Bashful" or "pink and pink"!!
It's one of my favorite movies, and this book sounds aweosme!
I happen to like blue more than I like pink.

Pink has consumed my life! I own pink shirts, socks, sweater, blankets, pillows, scissors, spatulas, EVERYTHING lol. But, all my pink buying goes to support a cause close to my heart, breast cancer. So, anywhere you see pink in my house, there's usually a pink ribbon on it! : )
