A very exciting announcement from Trish Doller...

Once upon a time, I was introduced to a lovely author by the name of Trish Doller, by our mutual friend, the beautiful Carla.  Our friendship began based on a love for all things music (specifically hot musicians with raspy voices).  While most of you know her by her recent work, Something Like Normal, this post is to tell you about her NEXT novel (which btw, is going to remind you why you love to read so much.. yes, it's THAT good).  I am honored to feature this news on my blog, as well as share some sneak peaks in the form of images and music that inspired the story.

All That Was Lost by Trish Doller [add to goodreads]:
To be published: Fall 2013, Bloomsbury

Seventeen-year-old Callie is skilled in the art of leaving. She and her mother have crisscrossed the country for more than a decade––on the run since the day her manic depressive mother abducted her. When her mom is arrested, Callie is reunited in Tarpon Springs, Florida, with her father, a man she doesn’t remember. There Callie must learn to navigate the life of a normal teenager––one that includes friendship, dating, and an extended Greek American family she never knew existed. But a childhood secret and her mother’s reappearance threaten the tentative security of her new life, and Callie must choose between staying and leaving––and whether she’s willing to lose all that she’s found.

Below are the images which so beautifully capture the inspiration for Trish's story:
