Welcome to The Unfinished Life of Addison Stone Blog Tour!
Yesterday, I reviewed Adele Griffin’s The Unfinished Life of Addison Stone, which is an unusual book about the life of a young artist that ended too soon.
Here’s the official word:
National Book Award-finalist Adele Griffin tells the fully illustrated story of a brilliant young artist, her mysterious death, and the fandom that won't let her go.
“From the moment she stepped foot in NYC, Addison Stone’s subversive street art made her someone to watch, and her violent drowning left her fans and critics craving to know more. I conducted interviews with those who knew her best—including close friends, family, teachers, mentors, art dealers, boyfriends, and critics—and retraced the tumultuous path of Addison's life. I hope I can shed new light on what really happened the night of July 28.” — Adele Griffin
For the blog tour, Soho Teen asked bloggers to come up with their own works of art as tribute to Addison and her intense life. I couldn’t resist taking a page from the YA Summer Showdown and created an homage to the novel’s cover:
Not perfect, but it is an homage, afterall.
