1. If you are a Portland, OR peep, I will be signing and reading next week. Tues., January 5th at 7:00 pm, to be exact, at the Clackamas Barnes and Noble. It's kind of weird, barnesandnoble.com has me on their events page! Go HERE and wait a minute, and you'll see me as the ad scrolls from THE HONOR OF SPIES to CHASING BROOKLYN.
2. A few early reviews have been posted, so thought I'd share...
"Schroeder masterfully creates a parallel structure within the text, the energy and emotion of each scene heightening its overall drama, underscoring the sorrow and, above all, strengthening its final message of hope."
—Kirkus Reviews
"Schroeder has covered a few rough topics in one novel and she weaved [them] together in a magnificent way."

"Lisa has written a story that to me was emotional, powerful, strong and filled with love."

"As a reader, I got the feeling that I was reading the diaries of friends and felt the sympathy and urgency and thrill of healing right along with them."—http://yahighway.blogspot.com
3. FAR FROM YOU makes a very cute paperback. I really like it. My new editor sent me a couple copies of each book until I get my author copies from the warehouse. Here, I took a picture for you:
Tomorrow - Find out what BIG plans I have for the month of January. It's so awesome and so exciting, I can't wait to share it with all of you!!
You got a great Kirkus review! That is awesome, as are the others. What a great way to go into the New Year. Yay, you! All my best wishes for your book signings.

ReplyDeleteCongrats! I wish you the best of luck!
ReplyDeleteI wish I was in Portland-it seems like all the cool authors live there:) But at least I got to meet you at ALA.
