- Open to a random page.
- Share a few teaser sentences from somewhere on that page.
- MAKE SURE NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (you don't want to give too much away and ruin the book for other readers)

"One," I say. This is it, Mom. This is for you.
"Two."
Promise Three.
"Three."
I'm not sure who jumps first, but the next thing I know, the three of us sail through the air, blue sky sliding into green tress toward the lake. This is life without restraint; this is what Mom wanted for me. We release our hands. I'm scared for an instant, then somehow free.

I was so lucky to get an ARC of this amazing book! It's such a departure from the other books of Jackson's: Sweetly, Sisters Red, and As You Wish. Purity is a great contemporary and is, "A novel about love, loss, and sex–but not necessarily in that order." This is the best mix of heartbreak and humor. You definitely don't want to miss this one, when it comes out on the 24th!!!
This does sound like a cute book! Glad she is living free for her mom!
