Kelsey Sutton - was 18 when she started writing so it just felt natural to write YA books but she loves that YA encompasses all of the different genres Why do you like to read YA / What made you choose to write it? Samantha Young - The Fire Spirit Series and upcoming standalone The Impossible Vastness of UsĪnn Aguirre - The Razorland series, the Immortal Game series and standalone The Queen of Bright and Shiny ThingsĬora Carmack - Roar is the first book in her new Stormheart series Kelsey Sutton - Some Quiet Place, Where Silence Gathers and Gardenia
The first English speaking panel of the day was about YA and First loves with authors Ann Aguirre, Samantha Young, Kelsey Sutton and Cora Carmack. I actually read it while I was still in Berlin but I've not had a chance to write my review yet so watch out for that coming soon on the blog. I won The Demon Prince, the second book in Ann's paranormal romance series (read my review of the first book here) which made my day as it was one I hadn't read yet but was really looking forward to. I have to admit I was a bit sceptical when she mentioned a relationship between a girl and an alien ship but the reading totally sold me and I already ship them LOL.Ĭara read a chapter from her novel The Wedding Band, I don't tend to read a lot of contemporary romance myself but Aly was definitely sold on this one and she was really excited to win a signed copy at the end of the reading.
The book, Honor Among Thieves, isn't going to be published until February 2018 but we were treated to an extremely early reading and that book is now on my must buy list. Ann has been a huge fan of Rachel's since before she was a published author herself so she talked about how excited she was when Rachel suggested that this could be the project that they finally worked on together. Ann told us how she randomly posted a tweet one night saying something along the lines of "why have I suddenly got the urge to write a story about a girl falling in love with a sentient space ship" and being really shocked when she had a reply from Rachel Caine saying that they must be brain twins because she'd just written that exact proposal.
Our first event was a reading with Ann Aguirre and Cara Connelly.
