Kirkus on Fourth and Goal by @MonteBurke
“Burke’s approach is unique among financial, business and sports books, as it’s not crucial to understand much about football or money to enjoy the book. A winning story for fans of Friday Night Lights and believers in the American dream.”

“A delightful love story…delectable. Mulry creates a completely fleshed-out character in Bronte Talbott, with her insecurity issues and her envious good luck. She and the other characters make this charming book worth reading again and again.”

Starred @ALA_Booklist review of Pines by...
“The suspense builds to an almost unbearable point, culminating with a twist that ratchets it up even further. Fans of Stephen King, Peter Straub and F. Paul Wilson will appreciate this genre-bending, completely riveting thrill ride, which mixes suspense, horror, science fiction and dystopian nightmare all rolled up into one unputdownable book.” http://www.blakecrouch.com

Kirkus on Jane by @TheRobinMaxwell
“A neatly framed narrative…Maxwell ticks all the boxes. A respectful, exciting, and disarming update of one of the last century’s most oft-told tales.”
