She thought libraries was her thing, because she wanted to work with books, and being an author was just an impossible dream, right? Wrong. She's now a writer and a publisher.

Julia by Sandra Newman
"The first thing to know about this novel is that the author gained the full support and blessing of the Orwell Estate to write this feminist retelling of 1984 from the perspective of Julia. Newman is faithful to the original, but also expands the ori" Read more of this review »

Julia by Sandra Newman
"Sandra Newman's Julia—a retelling of 1984 from the perspective of Winston's love interest who was never fully fleshed out in the original novel—sounded fascinating from the start. And it is fascinating. It's one of those turn-it-over-and-over-in-your" Read more of this review »
Emma Sterner-Radley and 168 other people liked Ron Charles's review of Julia:
Julia by Sandra Newman

“[F]amily isn't about who is related to you by blood. It's about who will be there for you even when it is not easy to be. It's about who will be happy when you are happy. And it's about people who will be willing to put your needs before theirs, knowing that you will do the same for them.”
