It has been some time since I have been able to blog about anything seeing as Google apparantly hates me and accordingly Blogger does too. I have now managed to sort out most of the technical difficulties I was experiencing on my blog and can join the world of blogging once again! Yeah!
Anyway I thought I'd start of my return to the Bloggerverse by letting you all know about a quirky new YA book releasing today (by Publishers Coleman & Stott) called on the Bright Side by S R Johannes. Here is the cover (which I kinda love) and a description of the book which I received from the author. I will shortly be posting a review of the book, but as you can see from the book description the story promises to be fun, quirky and an all around pleasant teen read!
Gabby is a disgruntled tween angel who has just been assigned to protect her school nemesis and ex-beffie. Problem is her ex-beffie is dating Gabby’s longtime crush. Instead of protecting Angela, Gabby pranks her (since when is sticking toilet paper to her shoe or spinach in her teeth a sin?) Soon, Gabby gets out of control and is put on probation by her SKYAgent, who has anger management issues of his own. Determined to right her wrongs, Gabby steals an ancient artifact that allows her to return to Earth for just one day. Without knowing, she kicks off a series of events and learns what can happen when you hate someone to death.
On the bright side is not the first book by S R Johannes. If you want to find out more about the author...read on!
S.R. Johannes is the author of Untraceable (a teen wilderness thriller) and On The Bright Side (a tween paranormal). She lives in Atlanta Georgia with her dog, British-accented husband, and the huge imaginations of their little prince and princess, which she hopes- someday- will change the world. After earning an MBA and working in corporate america, S.R. Johannes traded in her expensive suits, high heels, and corporate lingo for a family, flip-flops, and her love of writing.
I for one love finding out about new up and coming authors so I hope you will all have a look out for her newest book ! Hopefully I will have an author interview for you soon to get to know her better and to get inside the never ending imaginative minds of the authors we love to read!
