About this deal

She takes care of her cousin, Bailey, who unfortunately suffers from Muscular Dystrophy (MD) and is wheelchair bound. Bailey is hands down one of the BEST supporting characters ever! LOVED HIM! He has an absolutely wonderful sense of humor and you put him and Fern together and they have the best time… Everything about this story is somehow connected. As a result of it taking place over so many years, we got to see how little seemingly insignificant details came into play later on in a powerful, life-changing way.

He had) a face like the statue of some Victorian industrialist, heavy and firm and deeply lined, giving an impression of stern willingness —John Braine The end of this book broke my heart and made me rage. Okay, the very end was a good ending. But before that I just, there was, WAIT . . . I can't believe I haven't read it sooner. Amy Harmon is such a genius and a talented author and I knew it just by reading the first few paragraphs of the book. She did a wonderful job in this novel because of the way she chose words that absolutely hit home. All throughout the book I found myself hanging on to every word because I'm afraid I'll be missing out a tiny detail.

I tried to recreate one of Kevyn's looks on Lisa Marie Presley, which has always been one of my favourites. It's a far cry from anything he could do before he passed away, but I felt like sharing for the sake of the review. I should also note that the instructions regarding application are far from ample, but personally I skimmed over these parts. They assist Bailey’s dad Coach Sheen with his wrestling stuff and that’s how they grow up with Ambrose Young. Ambrose is a superstar in the wrestling world as well as hot stuff around the school. From Fern to Ambrose to Bailey, Rita, the Sheens, Paulie, Jesse, Bean, Grant, et al. Each character was depicted with such depth, such heart, such love. A love that also brought much pain and changed lives completely. I ached for Fern yet I loved how fearless and selfless she was. Such a beautiful soul. Every once in a while a book comes a long that, from the moment I first hear about it, takes over my mind and heart and doesn't let go until I've read it, lived it and immersed myself in the story. Making Faces was such a book. I read the blurb and shivers just went right through me and I immediately knew that this book was a must-read. While this book was not particularly surprising, I absolutely loved it. It was everything that I expected from Amy Harmon. I fell in love with these characters and could not stop listening to this story. I listened to the entire book, straight through, in one day. I was absolutely consumed by it. Hands-down, this is one of my best reads for the year! I loved it!

But somehow I gravitated towards this title, and wished for it on Netgalley late one night. So imagine my surprise when my wish was granted—four years after the publication date? Thanks to Amy Harmon for the opportunity!

I've kept it through several moves, including a period of my life where all my belongings were split between the three friend's houses I was couchsurfing on. I've never completed one of the looks featured in the book. That's not what makes the book so valuable to me. It's difficult to write a review that could even remotely explain how this story decimated my heart.

As you make faces, ask your little one what type of face you are pulling, this can help them to label emotions and recognise how people might be feeling.To Fern, Ambrose Young was absolutely beautiful, A Greek God among mortals, the stuff of fairytales. Fern loved Ambrose since she was ten years old. Teachers get to know about their students, including their likes and dislikes as well as their personal goals or achievements. What was REALLY great about this book is the expansive amount of celebrity photos that Kevyn used, everyone from Vanessa Williams, to Drew Barrymore, to Demi Moore. If I had not seen the step by step directions for some of the looks, I would have NEVER guessed who it was! He REALLY surprised the reader about what can be accomplished with the correct and playful application of makeup.

The idea of making faces had to do with thinking about the body as something you can manipulate. I had done some performance pieces - rigorous works dealing with standing, leaning, bending - and as they were performed, some of them seemed to carry a large emotional impact. I was very interested in that: if you perform a bunch of arbitrary operations, some people will make very strong connections with them, and others won't. That's really all the faces were about - just making a bunch of arbitrary faces. Bailey is Fern's cousin who suffers the crippling effects of muscular dystrophy. His love of life and ability to live freely in the moment overshadowed his physical shortcomings to the point where I was drawing strength from his character. But the one thing Bailey desperately wanted was to be a hero ... like Ambrose. This book was so moving and inspirational. I was such a weepy fool. My heart was filled to the brim. As this book spanned years we were able to see how events of yesterday plays into the intricate future.

In the parts where they were in Iraq, all they did were talk about girls. I never got the feeling that they were actually fighting in a war, up until the last scene in Iraq where road-side bomb exploded. And even that was a very short scene. This book was recommended to me by Jenny the Book Sojourner ( http://booksojourner.blogspot.com/) and now I have to add her to my Festivus card list and send her a thank you bouquet of flowers. As much as I loved Fern and Ambrose, Bailey was the very best part of this story. Bailey was so strong, so resolved to live his life to the very fullest. He was full of laughter, love and beauty. He was sweet, funny, and was exactly the person Fern needed in her life. I really agree with Fern’s mother and aunt. Fern and Bailey were brought into this world around the same time for each other. Face … has the compressed appearance, as though someone had squeezed his head in a vise —Woolcott Gibbs, about Thomas Dewey 1940 campaign Despite their differences, Fern and Ambrose form a strong bond when Fern begins penning love letters to her long-time crush. However, Fern isn't honest with Ambrose, pretending to be her best friend. When her deceit is revealed, Ambrose feels betrayed and shuns Fern.
