Big News and Tattered Cover!

We'll I've been promising you big news...and here's the big news!

Just yesterday it was announced in Publisher's Marketplace that I sold my fifth book to my young adult publisher, Farrar, Straus, Giroux!!!!

The book is called 52 REASON TO HATE MY FATHER and it's about...well, I'll just let the announcement speak for itself. :)

Jessica Brody's 52 REASONS TO HATE MY FATHER, in which a teen heiress, famous for her partygirl antics and tabloid headlines, is forced by her ever-absent mogul father to take on a different low-wage job every week for a year of life
-- and love -- lessons if she wants any hope of receiving her trust fund, to Janine O'Malley at Farrar, Straus Children's, for publication in Spring 2012, by Bill Contardi at Brandt & Hochman (World English).

I'm so thrilled to be able to work on another book with my fantastic editor, Janine O'Malley! So thanks, FSG for believing in me and buying my next book!

Thanks to everyone who came out to my LA book signing and release party last night. It was such a blast! Check out the pictures below!

Release Day!

It's finally here! The release of my second novel, LOVE UNDER COVER, is TODAY!

Check out some of the awesome things the reviewers have had to say about it:

"With a complicated, sympathetic protagonist, worthy stakes and a clever twist on the standard chick lit narrative, Brody will pull readers in from the first page."

-Publisher's Weekly

"Those who enjoyed Brody's debut will be eager to catch up with Jennifer, but newcomers will be intrigued, too...an honest, witty portrayal of modern love."
-Booklist

With her usual smart, deft, and witty prose, Brody delves deep into the psychology of a woman who tests the fidelity of strangers for a living but struggles with commitment in her own life."
-Joanne Rendell, author of Crossing Washington Square and The Professors' Wives' Club


And take a look at this amazing window display that the Barnes and Noble in Santa Monica did for the book!



So if you haven't already pre-ordered a copy, be sure to pick one up at your local bookstore, or order one online by clicking on one of the following links:

Jessica
