VIVIAN LANTZ' SECOND CHANCES<\/h3>\n

\n June 2023,\n HarperCollins,\n 320 pp <\/p>\n\n

\n \n \n <\/a>\n <\/div>

Vivian Lantz is cursed. Every year, terrible things happen on her first day of school\u2014and her first day of eighth grade makes the rest of them look like child\u2019s play. Her family\u2019s house floods in a sudden rainstorm. She ruins her perfect outfit before she even walks through the school doors. She almost kills her teacher\u2019s fish. And if all of that weren\u2019t upsetting enough, she gets her first period in the middle of the school cafeteria. Vivian can\u2019t wait to put it all behind her.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

But instead of waking up to a brand-new day, Vivian gets stuck reliving her catastrophic first day of eighth grade over and over again. Curse: 9,000 \u2013 Vivian: 0. Then she sees her misfortune for what it really is\u2014a golden opportunity to fix her mistakes. But when her second chance turns into a third, and a fourth, and a fifth, Vivian might have to let go of the perfect day of her dreams to escape the endless loop\u2026 and make a few surprising choices along the way.<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n\n \n\n

CANDIDLY CLINE<\/h3>\n

\n November 2021,\n HarperCollins,\n 320pp <\/p>\n\n

\n \n \n <\/a>\n <\/div>Born in Paris, Kentucky and raised on her Gram\u2019s favorite country music, Cline dreams of making it big with her own songs\u2014even if her mother has always told her that music won\u2019t pay the bills.\r\n\r\nSo when Cline finds out about a Young Singer-Songwriters workshop just a few towns over, she is determined to take her first real step toward her musical dreams. It might just require a little . . . fibbing to her mama.\r\n\r\nCline never imagined the butterflies she\u2019d feel surrounded by so many other talented kids\u2014especially Sylvie, whose effortless style and killer rock and roll playlist give Cline a different kind of butterflies that she\u2019s only ever heard about in love songs.\r\n\r\nAnd as she learns to make music of her own, Cline begins to realize how many sides of herself she\u2019s been holding back. There\u2019s a new song taking shape in her heart\u2014if only she can find her voice and sing it.<\/div>\n\n \n\n
