Everyone in My Family Has Killed Someone
You know the saying, you can't judge a book by it's cover? Well this one lives up to that for sure and then some. I am not sure what I was expecting with this, but based on the the title it wasn't what I got. Not in a bad way though. I mean I must admit I did not read the little insert as to what the book was really about, the name in itself was one where I just said, "You're going in my basket."

Why Adults Should Read More Children's Literature
In this past May and June I was taking a Children's Literature English Class. Because of this, of course, I was reading a variety of kid's books and middle grade books. (If you don't know, middle grade is made for the age range after children's books but before young adult, basically around 8-12 years old). I've always continued reading middle grade, even as I've grown more and more out of the target audience for it, mainly by rereading books that I really enjoyed when I was younger. For the past few years I've read one of my all time favourite books, Zorgamazoo by Robert Paul Weston, over and over because it's just that great. But when I was taking this English class in the spring I read children's books that were new to me and books that are younger than I would usually go back to read, and I think it sparked something in me and made me realize: "Why don't more adults read children's literature and middle grade?"

Team Jacob Won
Don’t get the wrong idea about me. I was not on Team Edward. I wasn’t on Team Twilight. I’m not sure what team I’m on. It’s so confusing for me because I’m a romance novelist. I write all kinds of romances and yet… I wildly do not understand the werewolf romance craze.
