Title: The Second Life of Magnolia Mae
Author: Angela Schroeder
Genre: Young Adult
Release Date: December 2
Publisher: Blue Tulip Publishing
Magnolia Mae has always had strange dreams,
even before her parents died in a car crash leaving her older brother to raise
her. Only a few weeks before Halloween and her eighteenth birthday the dreams
start to come more frequently, her life seems even more chaotic than usual and
the guilt that she did not stop her parents’ death is beginning to tear her
apart. The only one who has never treated her like an outcast is handsome Bash,
the boy whose eyes have haunted nearly all of her dreams.
As Halloween draws closer Magnolia enlists
the help of her brother and Bash to try to discover what these dreams mean. Why
does it feel like she has lived what she sees and why are Bash’s eyes in every
dream?
If not for Magnolia, her parents would be
alive. She’d known they were going to get into a car wreck. She had seen it two
nights before it happened. The screams had echoed in her head, the bursts of
lightning mixed with the flashes of red and blue from the emergency responders
had been forever implanted in her memory even before it had happened. The dream
had seemed so real — they always seemed so real — that she’d cried hysterically
until her parents found her curled on the floor of her room. They had assured
her that it had only been a nightmare. Two nights later, they’d gone out in a
storm to pick her up from rehearsal. Trying to avoid the deer had thrown their
car into a hydroplane that had connected them with a lone tree in the ditch.
Angela Schroeder is a single mother of
three. She was born and raised in Iowa in a river town known for its pearl
buttons. Having four siblings she never lacked for someone to play with, as she
grew older she found herself pulled into books and writing more and more.
Her parents are her heroes, her siblings
her confidants and tormentors and her children are a wonderful blessing. Church
is important to her children and her. They enjoy the friendships they've made
with the people there.
Writing has always been a passion. Her
first experience was in fifth grade when she went to a one day writing
conference. After that she knew it was something she wanted to pursue.
