Our launch events for the Spring 2015 list are over a month away, but author Jodi Carmichael’s Forever Julia is already garnering some buzz.  The novel, published under our Great Plains Teen Fiction imprint but also highly suitable for the New Adult genre, centres on Julia, the girlfriend of high school superstar, Jeremy.  When Jeremy’s feelings for Julia become obsessive, isolating her from her friends and family, she alone must decide what boundaries cannot be crossed.

The timely novel was part of Tara-Michelle Ziniuk’s article, A Delicate Balance, in the spring edition of Quill & Quire.  Ms. Ziniuk interviewed Jodi along with two additional authors of teen fiction tackling the touch issues of sexual assault and abusive relationships in their novels.  Grab this issue of Quill & Quire today!

Jodi begins a blog tour with Chapter by Chapter on April 27th, has an interview upcoming in Prairie Books Now and is getting set for her launch event at McNally Robinson on April 16th.  Congratulations on this early success, Jodi.  2015 is sure to be an exciting year as Forever Julia hits bookshelves across the country!
