Pick Five Books

 

If you could pick five books that had most influenced your life and who you are today--what five books would they be? Suey from over at All About Books asked me this question recently. Head on over and check out my answers.

Here is Suey's review of Forbidden Sea for those who are interested.

So what would your five books be and why? I'd love to hear all about them in the comments.

 

The Forbidden Sea Book Trailer is Here!!!

Okay guys, this is what you've been waiting for. Me most of all. I present to you, the finished Forbidden Sea Book Trailer. Here is a link to a high definition copy you can view and show all your friends. Enjoy!

*SPOILERS* Do not scroll down beyond this point unless you have read the novel, Forbidden Sea.





Just remember, when doing a trailer, sometimes things have to be changed and condensed to get the idea across in such a short period of time. Yes, I am well aware that Denn was not the one who went with Adrianne to the fortuneteller--but it was the only way we could get him in there--and that was the most important thing. Also, in the trailer, the mermaid you see is how Adrianne imagines her before meeting her, not what she really looks like--as those who have read the story will well know.

Other than that, tell me what you think of the trailer in comments! : )
