I thoroughly enjoyed it…so much that I personally emailed the author, Michele Young-Stone.

The Handbook for Lightning Strike Survivors
Tuesday, July 6th, 2010 The One That I Want
Tuesday, July 6th, 2010
I loved the subtle magical qualities of this novel, as well as the small town feel of it, and can’t wait to read more from Allison Winn Scotch.
Secrets of Eden
Tuesday, July 6th, 2010
The book is full of suspense and drama and all kinds of good stuff!…[It] kept turning in directions I wasn’t expecting (which I love).
Gillian Flynn on Writing Her First Novel Sharp Objects
Tuesday, May 4th, 2010
Libraries are filled with stories on generations of brutal men, trapped in a cycle of aggression. I wanted to write about the violence of women. Female violence is a specific brand of ferocity. It’s invasive. A girlfight is all teeth and hair, spit and nails — a much more fearsome thing to watch than two dudes clobbering each other. And the mental violence is positively gory. Women entwine. Innuendo, backspin, false encouragement, punishing withdrawal, sexual jealousy, garden-variety jealousy — watching women go to work on each other is a horrific bit of pageantry that can stretch on for years.
Secrets of Eden
Saturday, May 1st, 2010 Secrets of Eden is both a haunting literary thriller and a deeply evocative testament to the inner complexities that mark all of our lives.

Water, Stone, Heart by Will North

“You all right down there?”
Andrew Stratton looked up toward the cliff top, ten feet above his head, but the afternoon sun was in his eyes and all he could make out was the silhouette of a woman’s head and shoulders, etched against a Wedgwood-blue sky. Stratton was standing on a narrow grassy ledge above the sea, which he shared with a loudly bleating, black-faced sheep. The shape of a dog appeared beside the woman. The shape barked.
Press Release: The California Roll by John Vorhaus
Friday, February 12th, 2010
You’ve heard of a Ponzi scheme, but do you know the ins and outs of a Merlin Game, the Pigeon Drop, the Doolally Snadoodle, the Penny Skim, or the Dead Man’s Switch? World-class con artist and polymath extraordinaire Radar Hoverlander makes his living “on the snuke,” with his gift for bafflegab and an endless supply of assumed identities, the tools of a centuries-old trade. He’s very smart. And he’s very smooth. But how will he react when the snuke’s on him? As timeless as a perpetual-motion machine, and as timely as a Madoff arraignment, THE CALIFORNIA ROLL brings you deep inside the world of con artistry, where every fact is fiction and the second liar never has a chance.
