Making Faces

by Amy Harmon

Overview

Ambrose Young was beautiful. The kind of beautiful that graced the covers of romance novels, and Fern Taylor would know. She'd been reading them since she was thirteen. But maybe because he was so beautiful he was never someone Fern thought she could have...until he wasn't beautiful anymore

Making Faces is the story of a small town where five young men go off to war, and only one comes back. It is the story of loss. Collective loss, individual loss, loss of beauty, loss of life, loss of identity. It is the tale of one girl's love for a broken boy, and a wounded warrior's love for an unremarkable girl.

This is a story of friendship that overcomes heartache, heroism that defies the common definitions, and a modern tale of Beauty and the Beast, where we discover that there is a little beauty and a little beast in all of us.

Editorial Reviews

"Everyone should read this book. This is the kind of unforgettable story that sinks into your heart and doesn't let go. I can't recommend it highly enough."—Aestas Book Blog

"Sweet, bittersweet, enlightening and beautiful. It left my heart with a sense of rich fullness, beaming brightly, even through the sad parts. And I will never forget it. I will never forget them."—Maryse's Book Blog

"Making Faces reminds us of morals that are all too often forgotten or lost in modern life.  The underlying story of heroism and courage had me rooting for the unconventional hero and inevitably crushed me.  Beauty may be skin deep, but this story is deep on such a level that it will stay with you for a long, long time."—A Love Affair With Books 

"Occasionally you read a book that hits you like a freight train. That's exactly what this book did to me. It's the most powerful book I've ever read—and believe me, I've read a LOT of books." —Holly Kelly, author of Rising

"We'll be shouting about this one from the rooftops. Everyone should read this book. Absolutely spellbinding, heartbreaking, emotional and powerful. Mere words don't do justice to the experience I was afforded in Making Faces."—Totally Booked Blog
