I’m so honored to be part of this blog tour with WOW! Women on Writing. This is for an author I’ve stayed in touch with over the years, who wrote a book I’ve reviewed before called Never Too Late. That is a book you’ll want to check out as well as the one I’m reviewing today. This one on today’s post is called Disrupted. It’s a young adult fiction novel (one of my favorite genres!) and one you don’t want to miss.
Before we get to my review, here’s more about the book:
The San Ramos High students are busy rehearsing their performance of Our Town when the school and the surrounding towns are rocked by a 7.1 earthquake. As a series of unusual aftershocks disrupt the town further, their school is deemed unsafe, and the show is postponed indefinitely-unless they can find a way to turn that bad luck around. Dealing with their own personal difficulties and led by the stage manager, Sandee, who is working her way through the loss of her brother, they attempt to bring the community together, make the performance a success, and do their share to raise funds to rebuild. Both the show and life must go on!
My Review
I thoroughly enjoyed this book! It had a great pace and the author sprinkled in the instances of an earthquake so well throughout the book. That complemented the drama on the stage! I really liked the main character, she really portrayed a young woman balancing personal woes in her family with high school drama. The characters, the scenery, and the vivid action were well done in this book. There was even a bit of romance, which was introduced nicely without being overdone.
I think anyone can expect to enjoy this book! I sure did.
Make sure you add it to your GoodReads reading list. You can also purchase on Amazon.
Thank you for this lovely review. I hope you’ll post it on Amazon, where the inexpensive e-book is, and anywhere else you’d like to put it. And thanks for the plug for Never Too Late. Richard and I have been together for 12 years. Time flies.
