The Girl He Used to Know Sweepstakes

The Girl He Used to Know
A | BN | K | AB
We have an amazing sweepstakes for all of our lovely readers from the team at St. Martin’s Press!

One thousand–yes, that’s 1,000–ARCs are being given away for The Girl He Used to Know by Tracey Garvis Graves. Wow, right?

Here’s the description:

Annika (rhymes with Monica) Rose is an English major at the University of Illinois. Anxious in social situations where she finds most people’s behavior confusing, she’d rather be surrounded by the order and discipline of books or the quiet solitude of playing chess.

Jonathan Hoffman joined the chess club and lost his first game–and his heart–to the shy and awkward, yet brilliant and beautiful Annika. He admires her ability to be true to herself, quirks and all, and accepts the challenges involved in pursuing a relationship with her.

Jonathan and Annika bring out the best in each other, finding the confidence and courage within themselves to plan a future together. What follows is a tumultuous yet tender love affair that withstands everything except the unforeseen tragedy that forces them apart, shattering their connection and leaving them to navigate their lives alone.

Now, a decade later, fate reunites Annika and Jonathan in Chicago. She’s living the life she wanted as a librarian. He’s a Wall Street whiz, recovering from a divorce and seeking a fresh start. The attraction and strong feelings they once shared are instantly rekindled, but until they confront the fears and anxieties that drove them apart, their second chance will end before it truly begins.

  2. CelineB says:

    I really need to get to this one. I won an arc in a Goodreads giveaway last April-iish, but the release date was so far away it kept getting moved to the bottom of my tbr. It’s nice that they’re giving away so many copies!

  3. Sandy says:

    Ooooh! I was an English major at University of Illinois! Pick me!

  4. Kathy says:

    Irked that I can’t enter, even though I understand the reasons. It sounds kinda good, and my world I LOVE the cover. It really looks elegant—makes me yearn to read it. I wonder if they will even offer it here in the UK?

  5. Tori Puente says:

    This sounds right up my alley; hope I get one!

  6. Jessica Mumma says:

    I would love to read anything by Tracey.

  7. Becky says:

    I have five children and my youngest is now 8. So I finally have a chance to sit down and read a book. Something I loved to do before children!!!!

  8. Elizabeth salvo says:

  10. Juliann Bramley says:

    I am dying to get my hands on this book!

  11. Jean Lebeau says:

    Would love to read just the name of club that is offering it makes it sound interesting. Thanks for chance to win

  12. Joanna Justice says:

    I would love to receive a copy. Tracey Garvis Graves is a phenomenal author!

  13. Shana says:

    The book description sounds really interesting. I don’t think I would have ever picked this up based on the cover, she looks so delicate and elfin which isn’t my favorite kind of heroine.

    It makes me wonder if there’s data on whether blondes/brunettes/redheads sell more or fewer books in general.

  14. Mary says:

    Can’t wait!!

  15. Diana says:

    I wish it were open to international residents, too …

  16. Wendy Catalano says:

    Awesome!

  17. ReneeG says:

    Wow – huge giveaway! Glad SBTB is part of the team helping St. Martins Press give away so many books!

    TGHUTK sounds right up my alley, so I’ll be looking for this book in April.

  18. Jimette Ross says:

    Thank you for chance!

  19. Lynn says:

    Just got my copy today. Thank You!

  20. Samantha says:

    Would love this book
