Meeting the Author Ann M. Noser

This month we read How to Date Dead Guys by Ann M. Noser, and Skyped her in for our meeting.
The discussion we had was about the weather, because Ann is lucky enough to live where it's still nice and cold and we're all jealous!

But! About the book. We all love the cover. Everyone agreed that the cover is a perfect fit for the content, and that the title is so fun and eye catching. We all loved how Emma developed and learned from each of the guys, and discussed how weird the skin suit was, in a funny way!
Ann told us that the University campus is a location she's familiar with because her dad worked there etc, so the setting is very real, which was what made it so easy to picture while reading.
She explained that the story was inspired by several things; the story of a student who drowned in the river that her dad was deeply affected by, a close friend who died that affected her, and also the Smiley Face killings that are legendary in that area.
We also had a great chat about traveling with babies, and Ann and I got on a tangent about publication, haha!

Swag!!!

Our book club thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to meet Ann and read her book, and we are eagerly awaiting the release of book two in March.


Next meeting will be March 12th and we will be talking with Krystal Wade about her new novel; Asleep, that we have had the privilege to get as ARCs!
