Coming soon, November 17th, we are so excited for Fine by AmyLea Murphy. A YA Mystery that follows the disappearance of the picture-perfect Anna Williams as her sister, Katie, tries to solve the mystery. The best thing about this book is the authentic visual documents readers see alongside Katie. This is THE HOT novel of 2020, so we had to get the inside scope from the author herself.
Q What makes your book unputdownable?
Fine is a mystery that keeps you guessing. I think what makes it hard to put down is the reader isn’t just guessing about what happened, but why.
Q Tell us something about you that no one else knows
I was in an a cappella group in college. It was kind of like Pitch Perfect, but completely different.
Q What book has made you cry, why?
The first book that made me cry was Where the Red Fern Grows. I bawled like a baby at my desk in the middle of class. Then years later, I sobbed while finishing Anna Karenina on the subway. Apparently, I can cry anywhere.
Q What is your dream vacation?
A wandering tour of beautiful places I’ve never seen – quaint villages, inspiring fjords, lush rainforests – with plenty of time to explore.
Q If you had 3 wishes, what would you wish for?
After wishing for an end to human suffering, I’d wish for…
- A beautiful treehouse retreat in the woods,
- To become friends with a grizzly bear who likes to hug me, and
- Lifetime concert tickets to every band I love
Q Who/What is your biggest inspiration in your writing?
I’m inspired by the unsung heroes in life – the brave souls who show up with their whole heart. I think the most extraordinary people often go unnoticed because their accomplishments, like getting out of bed after a huge loss, don’t shine as brightly. That’s why I like writing about them.
Q If you could give your book to one person in the entire world to read, who would it be and why?
I’d give it to my teenage self because I would’ve loved to have read it back then.
