Sand Castle Bay by Sherryl Woods


My 2 cents:

Sherryl Woods' new adult fiction novel, Sand Castle Bay, is now available on compact disc with Brilliance Audio. Read by Shannon McManus, the novel is easy and entertaining to listen to.

In this novel, childhood sweethearts Emily Castle and Boone Dorsett are reunited on the North Carolina coast after a decade apart. Now, with two successful careers on opposite sides of the country, and a child (Boone's son B.J.), will Emily and Boone find a way to make their relationship last this time?

The lovely, lulling backdrops of wintry Colorado and the Outer Banks of North Carolina add to the flavor of the story, as does Emily's grandmother's beloved restaurant, “Castle's.”

Length: 9 hours and 25 minutes (Unabridged on 8 cds)

Worth Your Time? Yes. If you're standing in the kitchen peeling and chopping vegetables, driving long hours or tackling a challenging chore - and you just want a little company while you do it - this is the audio book for you.

Real Mermaids Don't Need High Heels by Helene Boudreau (Author/Interview)

Image
My 2 cents: Mermaids! Mermen! Ninth grade. Jade and BFF Cori, boyfriend Luke and frenemy Lainey Chamberlain. Add all this to a small town on a lake and the ocean, and you have just hit the jackpot for YA Literature. Helene Boudreau's newest mermaid novel, Real Mermaids Don't Need High Heels , comes out this month (February, 2013). Sweet, funny (and suspenseful), this little treat of a book is ready for publication just in time for Valentine's Day! Just as Jade enters ninth grade at Port Toulouse Regional High, ready for lockers and lunch (free of teacher supervision), and walking to class with her cool, new boyfriend (Luke), she finds herself suddenly back in Defense Mode, preparing to fight off a new attack from the errant Mermish Council. New friendships form, discoveries and rescues are made, but will Jade save her mermaid family and friends in time to attend the Fall Folly Dance? And, more importantly, if she is free to go, what will she wear? 12

Interview with Melissa Keil

Tell my readers a little about yourself I’m a writer and children’s book editor, and a self-confessed lover of pop culture and all things nerdy. I’ve had lots of odd and varied jobs in my career, including working very briefly as a high school teacher, but making books – writing and editing – is really my dream job. Melbourne, Australia is home, though I have lived all over the place, including stints in London, and northern Minnesota for a short time when I was younger. Life in Outer Space is my first published novel, although like most writers, I have a bottom draw filled with half-finished manuscripts. How did you get the idea for your characters, Sam and Camilla? Sam’s voice really came first; one of those odd moments where I was looking for inspiration for a new project (having decided to abandon the novel I had been working on), but really had no idea what the ‘new’ thing was going to be. I was attempting to write in a café when I spotted a poster for a horror fil

Legend by Marie Lu

Image
My 2 cents: You have about six weeks to read Marie Lu's breakout debut novel LEGEND, before the sequel, PRODIGY, is released January 29, 2013. Temple Hill Entertainment (Twilight) and CBS Films bought movie rights to LEGEND, and there is constant cyber-talk about which actors will play which characters. Will Kristen Stewart play June? Who will play Day, an Asian-Mongolian-Caucasian teen boy? Will Marie Lu get her wish of Ben Barnes portraying June's brother, Metias? Who will play Commander Jameson? Angelina Jolie? Or Meryl Streep? Enough talk about the movie that is soon to be in the making. Let's talk about the novel. First, no question, similarities abound between Legend and Hunger Games. Like Suzanne Collins, Lu sets her novel somewhere in North America's future. Both Day and June (Lu's central characters) live in the “Republic of America,” which is in Los Angeles, California, and is at war with the Colonies, the rest of the former United States, appa
