All of the juicy details about this novel, as well as the author, are posted below. Keep reading for more. SPARK comes out next year (May 2016)! Make sure you add it to your Goodreads if you'd like to read it. Links for Goodreads and pre-orders are at the end of this post. I'm excited because it has the most amazing elements of Romeo and Juliet wound into it's blurb. Description: Holly Schindler’s Spark: When the right hearts come to the Avery Theater—at the right time—the magic will return. The Avery will come back from the dead. Or so Quin’s great-grandmother predicted many years ago on Verona, Missouri’s most tragic night, when Nick and Emma, two star-crossed teenage lovers, died on the stage. It was the night that the Avery’s marquee lights went out forever. It sounds like urban legend, but one that high school senior Quin is ...
When Abby wakes up in the back of a van with no memory of how she got there, she reacts without thinking and escapes from her masked captors She finds herself in a home she's never seen with a father she doesn't know being asked about a brother she can't recall. As if that's not freaky enough, when she looks in the mirror, she doesn't look like the girl in the pictures who she is supposed to be. What is going on? A guy named Will appears who tells her she's a Shadow--summoned to solve an urgent problem for Brooke, the girl whose life she is inhabiting for a brief time. If she solves the problem, Abby moves on...if not, she's trapped in Brooke's body forever. Will is her guide; he can help her a bit with the problem, but can't tell her much else. Luckily, Abby finds that she's resourceful and intelligent, and she sets out to find Brooke's brother Paul and figure out how to make their home a happy one.
Borrowing Abby Grace is the first installment in an intriguing new e-series. It's short (~53 pages) and entertaining with an appealing paranormal premise and fast-paced mystery plot that's sure to attract readers. It reminded me somewhat of Mercy by Rebecca Lim, except Abby is (probably) not an angel, but there's still the element of helping desperate people solve urgent problems through supernatural means. It's fascinating watching Abby adapt quickly to her new environment and ad lib someone else's life. Her relationship with Will, who might be a nineteenth-century ghost, is also entertaining. Overall, this is a great read for lovers of paranormal adventures and mysteries! Recommended for ages 13 & up.
