When I discovered ANYA AND THE DRAGON via Twitter, it immediately reminded me of one of my favorite movies, Dragonheart (rest in peace, Sean Connery!). The sequel, ANYA AND THE NIGHTINGALE, is set to release next week on November 10. Here’s a look at this amazing Middle Grade fantasy series: Anya and the Dragon […]
I first connected with Laura Stegman through Janet Reid’s blog. I particularly related to Laura’s MG book SUMMER OF L.U.C.K. because I had a stutter growing up, plus it had a really great beginning that drew me right in: Stuttering Darby is never perfect enough for her mother. Justin’s been silent since his dad […]
Rachel Lynn Solomon has been one of my favorite YA authors since I featured her book, You’ll Miss Me When I’m Gone. Her newest novel, TODAY, TONIGHT, TOMORROW is a new delightful rom-com. Have a look: Today, she hates him. It’s the last day of senior year. Rowan Roth and Neil McNair have been bitter […]
Lori Goldstein first came on my radar when her amazing YA STEM book Screen Queens came out last year. Her newest novel, SOURCES SAY, debuted on September 8, 2020. Have a look: Two exes. One election. All the drama. For fans of Becky Albertalli and Morgan Matson comes a funny, heartfelt novel about feuding […]
When I first saw the cover of this book, it was hard to hold in my excitement. Like all the eeps. I first featured Alexandra Ott when I received a book from her Rules for Thieves series as part of a giveaway. Her new book, SEEKERS OF THE WILD REALM is the first in an […]

I’ve had the honor to interview Heidi Lang and Kati Bartkowski before. Their new creepy Middle Grade novel, WHISPERING PINES, debuted on September 1, 2020: Rae’s father vanished without a trace—and Rae knows what happened to him. But no one believes her when she says that her father didn’t run off, that he was actually […]
I first interviewed Hayley Stone when I featured her fantasy Western Make Me No Grave. Her recently released book with Audible, MACHINATIONS, also stars a bad-ass heroine, this time in a robot apocalypse: Waking up as a clone with a broken memory? Not great when you’re leading the resistance. Rhona has battled the malevolent […]
Traci Chee is one of my favorite authors to interview, and I’ve featured all three books in her Sea of Ink and Gold trilogy: The Reader, The Speaker, and The Storyteller. Ever since I heard the premise for WE ARE NOT FREE, I couldn’t wait for it to come out. The book debuted yesterday, and I […]
