Day 99: Caroline escapes. 
May God help them all…
ABOUT THE AUTHOR

AnnaLisa is the youngest of four children and the only daughter, born and raised in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. After graduating high school, she moved to Charlotte, NC with her parents. This turned out to be a blessing since it was just a few short years later that she met her husband in the Film Actor’s Studio of Charlotte. As she studied acting at the Studio, AnnaLisa was in several films and made-for-TV movies, as well as performed in local theater in both dramatic and musical roles. At one time, it was AnnaLisa’s dream to be a professional singer.

AnnaLisa completed her undergraduate degree in Human Services at Wingate University and her Master’s degree in Counseling from Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary. During her thirteen years in the Human Services field, AnnaLisa worked with children in group homes and foster care, and spent two years in private practice counseling individuals, families, and couples.

When her father was in a near fatal car accident in 2010, AnnaLisa’s best coping skill turned out to be writing. Five months after the accident, when all the what ifs would not go away, AnnaLisa started writing Layla Weston’s story in The Lake. She had no idea what she was going to do with the story. In fact, she wrote sixty-four pages before she told her husband what she was doing. By then it was clear that Layla had a long story to tell and there were multiple books on the horizon.

In 2013, after all three YA novels in The Lake Trilogy were written and she had let them sit long enough, AnnaLisa took matters into her own hands and self-published the titles within just a few months of each other. Received well by readers young and not-so-young alike, The Lake Trilogy has enjoyed breakout success, selling close to half-million copies the first year.

AnnaLisa’s publicist is Rick Miles of Red Coat PR, and she is represented by Italia Gandolfo of GH Literary. AnnaLisa has been married to her super awesome husband Donavan since 2001 and lives in Matthews, NC with their two ridiculously beautiful children.

Thursday Thoughts - New Releases Edition

I thought I’d share my thoughts on New Releases today. I’ve seen several posts gushing over the new releases for this month. I would gush too, but I tend not to read new releases. Here’s why. I didn’t read any new releases (or at least very few) last year or the year before. I could probably keep going. So that means that I’ve got all the previous years worth of releases to catch up on.

Now I may look at and add some new releases to my TBR pile. However, unless I find them on a super sale (or motivate my butt to go to the library) it will probably be years before I read them.

I tend not to buy too many full-priced books. I have two kids and am therefore broke. I just sent my oldest off to college this fall (seven hours from home I might add). My youngest is in 8th grade and it is because of him that I’ve recently started buying two gallons of milk at a time. How is it that I have fewer kids at home yet I am buying more groceries?

Anyway I thought I would show you some of the books I am looking forward to buying when I can find the money. The images below link to the Goodreads page.


Mindsurge (Mindspeak, #3)  Independence (Significance, #4)  Give Me Strength (Give Me, #2)

Secret North (Wishes, #4)  Lies in Blood (Dark Secrets, #4)  City of Ashes (The Mortal Instruments, #2)

Off Limits (Off, #2)  Jordyn and the Caverns of Gloom (A Daemon Hunter, #2)  Troubled Waters (The Lake #2) 
The Curse Breakers (The Curse Keepers, #2)

So it turns out they are all part of series I’ve started reading.

How do you feel about new releases? Do you have to read them? Or do you do like I do and go to the older books? Or do you read a mixture?
