PW gives THE FACE a starred review

I am stunned. 

Publisher's Weekly is THE industry trade magazine, read mostly by booksellers, but their reviews are used by Amazon.com and other online book outlets.  It's often difficult to get a PW review, and their reviewers, being avid readers, do not write "puff pieces."  

THE FACE, which releases in November, just received a starred review in PW.  I have NEVER received a star before, and at this moment I feel like I've just been handed a Pulitzer or something.  :-)  Somebody pinch me.   

God is good.  

Here's the review, if you're interested: 

The Face Angela Hunt. Mira, $6.99 (384p) ISBN 978-0-7783-2727-1

Compelling characterization is the driving force behind this enthralling story of hope. Born without facial features due to Treacher Collins syndrome, declared legally dead and signed over to a secret CIA program as an infant, 20-year-old Sarah Sims has spent her entire life hidden from the mainstream world. Her only distractions are her work as a computer espionage expert and a steady diet of classic movies until her aunt, Renee, discovers Sarah is still alive, providing her first chance to explore a life outside her physical and emotional seclusion. Hunt (The Elevator) fuels the completely engrossing story with dual present-tense narration by the two women. Readers are drawn into their lives, sharing their joy and fear as they approach a fulfilling and surprising climax. A touch of suspense adds to the powerful themes of second chances and new beginnings. (Nov.)
