Great New Ebook for Teens!

                                                                                                                             

True Colors is a fun read with a good message. Author Krysten Lindsay Hager understands what it means to be a teen today, and she writes with an authentic voice. Landry, the main character, is funny, lively, and very real. Readers will relate to her struggles with friends and family, self-esteem and self-discovery, boys and school and life in general. It's fun to read about Landry's blossoming modeling career and the changes it brings. I'm hoping for a True Colors sequel so I can find out what happens next for Landry!

Amazing new book!


I really enjoyed Reporting Under Fire – 16 Daring Women War Correspondents and Photojournalists by my talented author friend Kerrie Logan HollihanThe extensive research behind the book is impressive, but Kerrie does more than just lay out the facts about these female journalists. She places each woman in historical context and helps readers relate to the culture, the events, and the issues of her times. With skillful storytelling, entertaining anecdotes, powerful quotes, and intriguing photos, Kerrie brings these sixteen inspiring women to life for both young and adult readers. I highly recommend this fascinating book! Get it here.
