As I mentioned in a previous post, I shot some portraits for my cousin Lauren DeStefano, leading up to the release of her first novel, Wither: The Chemical Garden Trilogy. Since my last post on this topic, I was able to get my hands on a copy of the book and have finished reading it. I have to say I really enjoyed the read and could not put it down once I started. At this point I can't wait to get my hands on the next 2 books in the series.

Wither was originally set to be released on March 22, 2011, but I think it might be out already and available for sale.

If you get a chance I suggest you pick up a copy of this book and give it a read. You won't be sorry you did.

I was recently approached by author Lauren DeStefano to do headshots of her leading to the release of her first novel, Wither. This book will be the first installment in the Chemical Garden Trilogy. Lauren decided not to include a headshot of herself in the book jacket of the US release of Wither but my photos can be seen on her website and will also be present in the book jacket of the overseas editions of the book.

Wither is scheduled to be release in March 2011 and is being published by Simon and Schuster. I was able to get my hands on an early copy of Wither and though I only had 1 day to read it, and I was not able to finish the book, it was incredible. I couldn't put the book down and I can't wait to finish it. For more info go to: http://laurendestefano.com

Congratulations Lauren!!! I can't wait to finish reading the book.
