Author Visit

A shout out to the Sayville ladies book club who asked me to come to their monthly meeting in August 2015 to discuss Saving Toby. Thanks to the host, Leslie who fostered the idea and the other ladies: Tina, Deb, Dot, Rachel, Judy, and both Pats for the in-depth look at the story and its characters. What a warm, lively and fun group. Good eats, too!

Book Clubs interested in an Author Visit

I'd love to be a guest author at your book club meeting, too. If your club meets in the Long Island area, a personal visit could be arranged. Clubs that meet outside the area can be done via video call, such as Skype. For considerations, email me at suzannemckennalink@gmail.com.

#FrightFall Read-a-thon

Fall reading So I'm about to start another read-a-thon with Seasons of Reading's #FrightFall Date: October 5-11 There's only one rule to #FrightFall, and it's that we must read ONE scary book (which can be a thriller, mystery, Gothic novel, or similar for those who are faint of heart). I don't typically read thrillers or any of the above types of books, but for this one week, I'm going to expand my horizons and try one or two. Who knows? Maybe I'll find new genre to love! My first selection is Spirit Legacy (The Gateway Trilogy #1) by E.E. Holmes This was free on Amazon when I found it, but Prime and KU members can read it for free anytime. I'm extremely picky about downloading free books, but this had good reviews on both Amazon and Goodreads, and the synopsis was appealing: “The Gateway is open...” These cryptic words wake college student Jess Ballard from a terrifying dream into an even more terrifying reality.
