I am thrilled to share the cover of my award-winning Young Adult novel, Summer, in Between:

I couldn’t be more in love with the cover of my debut novel, Summer, in Between, where sun, surf, sand and lasagne weave together in a funny, uplifting story about first love, the balance between expectation and anticipation and finding your place.
The team at Hawkeye Publishing completely nailed the brief with this cover. Imagine if Looking for Alibrandi and Puberty Blues had a book baby, and that’s my debut. Summer, in Between is teenage fun, freedom and anticipation with just a splash of hilarious excruciation. There’s that feel of salt on your eyelashes, the itch of sweat moving down your temple, the grit of sand on everything and anything and there’s that light in the early morning when you’re on cloud nine million after the most incredible kiss of your life. I cannot wait for this to make its way to readers (young adults and beyond).
GoodReads reviews are already coming in (and making me tear up every time) and it’s now available for preorder right here. Preorders are incredibly important to authors and to publishers: it’s basically how publishers get books into bookshops and into the hands of readers.
Ain’t she somethin’:
