Welcome to my author page! My name is Diane Matlick and I live in northern New Jersey with my husband and two children. My first book, Summer Tour, is a coming of age story about a group of friends following their favorite band the summer before they graduate college. My second book, Winter Break, is the sequel. Happy reading everyone!

I'm sure the kids from book one will make cameos, but I don't have any specific plans for them right now.

Thanks for the question!(less)

I don't, I'm pretty close to finished with my first draft, but i edited and rewrote Summer Tour for 6 months, so it probably won't be until the fall. I'll definitely keep you posted! And... my friends have all given me their theories on book 2 but no one has been right about who is on 'the quest' (it is someone from book 1) (less)

I thought this was an incredibly unique and brilliantly written take on Hamlet. I can’t think of any other book written from this POV. Highly recommend

“He is the most beautiful creature I have ever seen and it's not about his face, but the life force I can see in him. It's the smile and the pure promise of everything he has to offer. Like he's saying, 'Here I am world, are you ready for so much passion and beauty and goodness and love and every other word that should be in the dictionary under the word life?' Except this boy is dead, and the unnaturalness of it makes me want to pull my hair out with Tate and Narnie and Fitz and Jude's grief all combined. It makes me want to yell at the God that I wish I didn't believe in. For hogging him all to himself. I want to say, 'You greedy God. Give him back. I needed him here.”

Never,' he tells me in a tone full of ice, 'underestimate who or what I care for.”
