It wasn’t all that long ago that I was crying, daily, as I worked through the last drafts of THE LUCY VARIATIONS, certain it would break me.
Then my editor called me and said that it was really done.
Then somewhere during the copyedits, I began to believe that it actually was.
And now, it has skin! And quite a pretty skin at that. This was one of those covers that has attached itself to me slowly, and that attachment has grown into a deep and burning love.
May 2013. Just around the corner!

By special arrangement with my local independent book store, The King’s English, you can always find signed copies of my novels there.
If you’re not local, you can order signed copies from them and have them shipped and, if you like, gift wrapped. Also, if you’d like me to personalize a signed copy, we can make that happen.
And, of course, anywhere books are sold.
Yay! I celebrate with you!
Oh, Sara! This is fabulous. So striking. I really loved your last cover, but this one is great too. Congratulations! I can hardly wait to read it.
What a smart cover. I love the image, the design, that fragile thread of bracelet– beautiful and intriguing.
Beautiful !! I look forward to reading it!!
Oh, oh, oh! It’s LOVELY. I’m so excited to discover the “variations” aspect of your title is a play on music/the piano! My favorite instrument. :-)
Oh how I wish May 2013 wasn’t around the corner but just outside my front door ):
I’m so incredibly excited for me, for you, and for everyone that’s been dying for this book.
Congratulations on the new cover, simple and gorgeous.
verra niiiiice.
Sara, This is beautiful! I’m so happy for you and for the progress from daily crying to loving the skin your story is in. Thanks for persisting! I can’t wait to read it. Side note – will miss the glen this year. Have a wonderful time with your class!

It’s beautiful. There are very few books I would buy simply because of the cover – but this one I would.
She could be playing the opening notes of the old “Love Story” theme. If the book is as sad as that movie, it’s a scary coincidence.
Congrats on a gorgeous cover!
Yay! It’s a beautiful cover! What a relief to be finished. I know what hellish deadlines feel like. xoxo
Awe.some. :]

Beautiful cover. Intriguing. Can’t wait to read another Sara Zarr book!!
I love it! As a young pianist, I’m especially attracted to it.
My mind fills with piano music, just looking at it. Exciting! :)
This is such good news, Sara! I can’t wait for May 2013!
Love this.
Ooh! Your name is on there and that’s the best part. Are there any ARCs to be had for us impoverished aspiring authors aka book bloggers? Sorry I haven’t commented in a while. I’ve been busy trying to write a tenth as well as you. Love, love, love you and your books.
The ARCs aren’t printed yet, but I’ll let you know when they are!
