REVIEW STRANGE IN SKIN

Time Travel, Witches, lies and sneaking around is just part of what goes on in Strange in Skin by Sara V Zook. This is the first of Sara V Zook's books that I have read. Boy, WOW is what I have to say to describe this book. The book started off pretty good but then went to amazing where it was a complete page turner and I didn't want to put it down. Yes it is a short read about 190 pages or so but ACTION packed. When doing a favor for her mother Anna goes to the prison to fill in for her dad who does prison ministry. Anna then meets inmate Emry. Well from that point on there was so many twists and turns that had me on the edge of my seat. Things I didn't expect that's for sure. I have some questions that I hope are answered in either Evadere or Solace. But then again maybe my questions "suspicions" are just that due to the events that have gone on. Sara V Zook does know how to keep her readers interested that I do say. I have to say I have never read a book like this and I really can't wait to see what the other two books in the series leads to. I want to read more of Sara V Zook's book.

REVIEW SOON TO FOLLOW FOR EVADERE and SOLACE

Sara V. Zook new picMEET SARA
Sara wrote her first book at age six. Of course, it was only a few pages, handwritten by a 6-year-old and was about kitty cats. As a child, some days she would be out venturing in the woods with her older brother and cousins, but sometimes would stay inside and create stories, write them down in a notebook and then pretend to publish them by typing them up on her mother's old typewriter. "I know, what a weird child I was." From then on out, Sara didn't want to be anything but a writer. When others would ask her classmates what they wanted to be when they grew up, some would say the usual things, singers, veterinarians, astronauts, but not Sara. Sara would say writer, and then she'd get a strange stare. Writer? What child says they want to be a writer?

Sara graduated from United High School in 2000, a small school out in the country where everyone knew each other from kindergarten up and could tell you every little detail about each other and still can. "It was a nice area to grow up, and I love going back."

In 2004, Sara graduated from the University of Pittsburgh at Johnstown with a bachelor's in, you guessed it, creative writing. She had such a blast in college, met some of the greatest people that Sara still remains in close contact with along with her husband, Brad. They were married and had two children back to back, so while Sara was in "mommy land," her writing was put on the back-burner.

Sara started writing again in the summer of 2010, and after three months, 'Strange in Skin' became the product of her imagination. Sara had so much fun writing it, she couldn't stop. She would work all day and then stay up late at night typing up a few more chapters. She didn't want it to end, so Sara decided she would have to write more books to follow it. The main characters, Anna James and Emry Logan, were people Sara could relate to, that she loved to relate to. There's nothing quite like a sappy love story that's so good it sucks you in. You want them to be together. They have to be together and you can't stop reading until they are together. That with a little paranormal twist, and voila, a book is born.

Then Sara and Brad became proud parents once again. Sara is still in "mommy land" but also Strange in Skin fantasy land. The mix of both raising children and writing makes for some pretty entertaining days. Sara could write a million stories on her kids alone, especially the things that come out of their mouths that you're either so shocked they said or are so funny that you can't stop laughing.
