Giveaway: The Seven Torments of Amy and Craig

A while back I participated in a tour, and the publisher was very generous and sent me an ARC and two finished copies. Since I don't need three copies of a book, I am giving away the two finished copies. Sorry this is US only, because I am poor. I will be doing another international giveaway for the winter holidays.

If you missed my review, you can check it out here.


The Seven Torments of Amy and Craig
Don Zolidis
Age/Genre: Young Adult, Contemporary
Publisher: Disney-Hyperion
Rating: 4 out of 5 stars
Goodreads
Janesville, Wisconsin (cold in the sense that there is no God) 1994

The worst thing that's ever happened to Craig is also the best: Amy. Amy and Craig never should've gotten together. Craig is an awkward, Dungeons & Dragons-playing geek, and Amy is the beautiful, fiercely intelligent student-body president of their high school.

Yet somehow they did. Until Amy dumped him. Then got back together with him. Then dumped him again. Then got back together with him again. Over and over and over.

Unfolding during their senior year, Amy and Craig's exhilarating, tumultuous relationship is a kaleidoscope of joy, pain, and laughter as an uncertain future-and adult responsibility-loom on the horizon.

Craig fights for his dream of escaping Janesville and finding his place at a quirky college, while Amy's quest to uncover her true self sometimes involves being Craig's girlfriend?and sometimes doesn't.

Seven heartbreaks. Seven joys.Told nonsequentially, acclaimed playwright Don Zolidis's debut novel is a brutally funny, bittersweet taste of the utterly unique and utterly universal experience of first love.

  1. Thanks for the giveaway, Sam! I guess the publisher really wanted to make sure you had a copy of this book :) Sounds good!

    1. Yeah. First they told us there were problems with the ARCs, and I had already been "declined" on NG, so I read the book from Hoopla. Then, the ARC came. About a week later, I received a finished copy, and a week or two later, another finished copy. I feel like there was a miscommunication. But, I really liked the book, and would love others to read it.
