YA Roundtable-The Right and the Real by Joelle Anthony

Another sneak peak! And this is a book I've been waiting for since I read RESTORING HARMONY by Joelle Anthony. It is one I have recommended to teens and adults alike and both have loved. I recommend you check it out, as well! Now. On to the reason for this post. The trailer for THE RIGHT AND THE REAL is up and running. And man oh man the guitar in this is amazing. First, though, here is the blurb from IndieBound.Org :


Jamie should have known something was off about the church of the Right & the Real from the start, especially when the Teacher claimed he wasn't just an ordinary spiritual leader but Jesus Christ himself. But she was too taken by Josh, the eldest son of one of the church's disciples, and his all-American good looks. Josh was the most popular boy at school, too, and the first boy outside the drama geeks to give Jamie a second look. But getting her dad involved in a cult was not part of the plan when she started dating Josh. Neither was her dad's marriage to the fanatic Mira or getting kicked out or seeing Josh in secret because the church has deemed her persona non grata.

Jamie's life has completely fallen apart. Finding her way back won't be easy, but when her dad gets himself in serious trouble, will Jamie be ready to rescue him, and maybe even forgive him?








Yay for this being out on April 26. The wait is almost over!

    1. Welcome! And if you have a chance, check out her first one too. It's dystopian, but not "typical"...has a real dirty thirties feel to it and a kick butt teen (and her fiddle!)
