This or That? with Brodi Ashton
I’m super pleased today to have Brodi Ashton, author of the stunning Everneath, here on the blog! She’s here today to share a little bit about herself in a game of This or That? I give her topics, and she chooses which one she likes better. My favorite part about this game is that it is a great way to get to know the inner workings of my favorite authors! So without further ado, I’ll let her take it away. Hi Brodi! Out of the following pairs, please share with us what you’d choose! Dogs or Cats? Dogs Dancing or Singing?…

The Way We Fall Giveaway!
In case you missed my raving today on Twitter, and my review earlier today, The Way We Fall has fast become a book I feel the need to share around! It blew me away because of how different it is from a lot of other books I’ve read lately. In fact, I’m not even sure it’s dystopian. It’s more about survival, and living in the moment when it’s all you have left. More about that below in the synopsis. It starts with an itch you just can’t shake. Then comes a fever and a tickle in your throat. A few days later, you’ll…

The school’s foreign exchange program seems like the perfect escape: Piper will go to the original Paris; Mei will go to China; Cassidy will go to Australia; and Izzy, unable to afford…

A chat with author Jonathan Cook.
Today I have the pleasure of hosting Jonathan Cook, author of many popular books that now include the one I’ll be reviewing: Youth and Other Fictions. Jonathan Cook is an author who I greatly admire, mostly because he is willing to write about difficult subject matter that most others won’t touch. I’m proud to have him here today. Enjoy this look at the influences in his writing career, and make sure to check out his newest book! I was a solitary child, not out of misanthropy–that would come later–or that dreaded Only Child Syndrome, but out of a desire for…
