Using story to connect YOU to the Master Storyteller

3 Reasons You Won’t Be Able to Put Down This Hysterical Novel

by Chautona Havig · 1 Comment

When you find a book this enjoyable, all you can think of is to thank the Lord that Liana George turned her organizational skills into a wonderful series. via @chautonahavig

Author of the upcoming release Perfectly Arranged, Liana George talks about organization, women’s fiction, and her favorite books.

Seriously, what could be better than a curmudgeon with a pampered cat and more shoes than Imelda Marcos? And what about dealing with life-long issues? Liana George has written a compelling book about life, secrets, and overcoming personal demons.

Book one of a three-book series, Perfectly Arranged will keep you riveted from the first page.  Ask me how I know.

3 Reasons You Won’t Be Able to Put Down This Hysterical Novel

Obviously, I liked the book. I was a bit annoyed that I had to stop reading long enough to do the interview, but Liana George is a whole lot of fun to talk to, so I got over myself pretty quickly.

That kind of gives away that I liked the book but um… will you?  I thought it would be fun to share why I think you will.

First, characters.  Seriously. This woman knows how to write complicated people without making the writing complicated. That takes skills, folks!

Second, emotions. From the first page, Liana George takes you on a wild emotional ride. Not only that, but each tug at your heartstrings, each flare of anger, each confused moment makes SENSE.  Shocker!

And third, story.  This book took me to places I’d never have expected from the cover (which we’ll talk about in a second).  I loved that twist of the unexpected and a deeper story than I’d anticipated. Liana George does a lovely job of providing a rich reading experience.

and that cover…

I’ll be honest. Until you read the book, it doesn’t make a lot of sense.  It gives off strong, nonfiction vibes.  However, once you’ve read the book, you can’t help but smile at it.  And that’s kind of cool!

Liana George Perfectly ARrangedPerfectly Arranged (The Hopeful Heart Series * Book One) by Liana George

Episode 579: A Chat with Lauren Smyth
byChautona Havig

Dystopian in the desert? Sign me up! Seriously, listen in while Lauren Smyth and I chat all things “glowy” in the desert!

Not a lot of people write books about the boring Mojave Desert. When they do, I take note. Especially when it’s a super-cool dystopian delight! EEEP!

All That Glows by Lauren Smyth

The apocalypse didn’t take everyone. It just took us. Ever since the rain turned green, Kyrie’s world has been bathed in glowing dust. She packs it into old mascara tubes and sells it as makeup alongside dried cacti, threadbare blankets, and long-expired canned food. There’s not much else to do when everyone outside Kyrie’s small town in the Mojave Desert died from the plague-bearing rain ten years ago. Everyone—except the man in the rubber mask. He’s on the dangerous side of the fence, huffing infected air like it’s nothing, babbling to Kyrie about college and umbrellas and yogurt and everything else that disappeared the day it rained. He doesn’t seem to know that the world ended, and he has no explanation for how he survived the apocalypse. But Kyrie doesn’t believe in ghosts. She can’t trust him, but he’s right about one thing: Towns without secrets aren’t surrounded by chain-link fences. And chain-link fences won’t keep out the plague forever.
