About this author

I'm a YA writer, teacher, and incorrigible daydreamer. My debut for teens, KISS THE MORNING STAR, comes out from Marshall Cavendish in Spring 2012.


I’m going to write up a real post about this event, but I wanted to share some photos and shout my thank-yous from the rooftops. It was so wonderful to see all who made it to the party, or to hear from all who couldn’t make it but sent a little message of support. I’m pretty sure seeing everyone there with my books in their hands (they’re real! they’re REALLY REAL!) was the best feeling on eart...

Wow. Dia Reeves' twitter bio says she writes books that make people feel squicky, and while that may have been true from time to time in this dark and bizarre story of one of the creepiest towns I've ever fictionally experienced, this book made me fe...more

cute book, I think my son would like it except then he'll probably be bugging me to have a lemonade stand constantly. I know it's hard to figure out what to do with the parents in MG books, but I did feel like these kids were pretty young (8 and 10)...more

“Let's stay up all night,' Kat whispers. 'Let's wait for the moon to kiss the morning star.”
Elissa Janine Hoole, Kiss the Morning Star

“It would not be fair to say that the fire stole my faith, since in truth it has been slipping away from me all my life, flipping between my fingers like a shiny little minnow--such a far cry from the trophy salmon that dangled from my father's fist.”
Elissa Janine Hoole, Kiss the Morning Star

I used to believe in so many things—elves and leprechauns, virgins riding unicorns. I trusted that the world was made up of people who were generally good, though they may have lost their way temporarily. The faith my mother gave me—the words she whispered when she said good night, the idea that gave me hope for the two of us even when we fought bitterly over trivial things, as mothers and daughters do, I guess—was her belief in love, a love so unconditional we could barely scratch at the edges of comprehending it.
