Amanda Pennington My second novel! I'm thrilled to bring to center stage two side characters from Book Smart, where I had to stop them from stealing the show at times. They have big personalities - opposite personalities, if you know your tropes! - and their story will be equal parts lighthearted and poignant.
Amanda Pennington I was having a rough day, so I hopped on Facebook for a few minutes to give myself a mental and emotional break. I randomly scrolled across an article about dating advice to "find a husband" in the 1950s. After a few minutes of laughter - and horror! - at the ridiculous advice, my first thought was, "Someone should try out this dating advice in the 21st century and see what happens." My second thought was, "Imagine if someone wrote a book about it." So I wrote it! (For the record, I'm happily married, so I did not do the dating experiment myself!)
