In Time With You by Kristin Dwyer ~ a Review

by MK French


Nieve Monroe is devastated after her boyfriend, Carter, dies saving her from drowning. She blames herself for his death, and so does his best friend, Max. Avoiding his accusing glances, Nieve goes to stay with her grandmother, who has always had strange stories to tell of uncanny happenings, of magic and make-believe. The next morning, Nieve wakes up on the first day of college, the year before. She's determined to do the year over to save Carter and make sure he never goes near the river. It means she might lose him in other ways, and the distance she puts between them makes her grow closer to Max. Does saving Carter mean that she must betray him? How can she forget the past and move on?

5 Books for Fans of Speculative Fiction

by MK French


Speculative fiction is an umbrella genre. It encompasses all genres that deviate from reality: fantasy, mythology, dystopian, science fiction, magical realism, etc. This is a fun genre as it lets us explore what-ifs and dig deeper into sensitive issues that might be more difficult to address in real life.

3 Anthologies to Read This Fall

by MK French

Anthology

The leaves are changing and the weather has a bit of a crisp chill. It is the perfect time for horror and speculative fiction. Fall often means busy schedules car pick-up lines and afterschool activities. Short stories are a great way to squeeze in a bit of "me time" while waiting on the kids.

When Bad People Do Good Things

by Clark Hays & Kathleen McFall

As we get set to publish the second book in a “what-if” series recasting the lives of Bonnie and Clyde, we reflect on the factors that draw readers to tales of atonement.
