About this author

Brinda Berry lives in the southern US with her family and two spunky cairn terriers. She has a BSE in English and French and a MEd in Learning Systems Technology. She's terribly fond of chocolate, coffee, and books that take her away from reality. She doesn't mind being called a geek or “crazy dog lady”. When she's not working the day job or writing a novel, she's guilty of surfing the internet for no good reason.


I read five of Nyrae Dawn's books in a row. My May giveaway to one lucky commenter is a $10 Amazon or B & N gift card. I'll draw at the end of the month from all commenters on posts during May.
Picture A couple of weeks ago, I embarked on a reading frenzy. I lost sleep, skipped meals, and obsessed over one author's books. Okay, maybe I didn't actually skip meals, because I rarely do that. I did re... read more »

Four Summers by Nyrae Dawn
" I didn't realize how much I needed to read a book like Four Summers, until I started it! I have been reading a lot of NA and older YA--this is likely because most of the popular YA titles right now seem to have an older tone to them--and Four Summ... "

Four Summers by Nyrae Dawn
Four Summers
by Nyrae Dawn (Goodreads Author)
read in April, 2013
This is my favorite book from Nyrae Dawn. That's saying a lot because I've loved every book I've read from her. This story spans four summers in the lives of Charlotte and Nathaniel. Each summer, Nathaniel's family vacations in a cabin at a resort. C...more

Measuring Up
by Nyrae Dawn (Goodreads Author)
read in April, 2013
As I've noted in another review, I read five of Nyrae Dawn's books in one week. This book was honestly different from any book I can remember reading. I loved the character arc in this book. The female character who is far from perfect. She lacks sel...more

What a Boy Needs (What a Boy Wants, #2)
by Nyrae Dawn (Goodreads Author)
read in April, 2013
I enjoyed What a Boy Wants, so I read this companion book the very next day. Maybe I'm a softie, but my heart ached for Jaden during this book. I've seen too many teens go through some of the same issues. I think Nyrae Dawn scores again with the male...more

What a Boy Wants by Nyrae Dawn
What a Boy Wants (What a Boy Wants, #1)
by Nyrae Dawn (Goodreads Author)
read in April, 2013
I loved this YA book written from a male POV. I think Nyrae Dawn did a fantastic job of giving us male perspective and keeping it fun. I especially liked the main character Sebastian. If I were in high school, he'd be my crush. Definitely.

Lauren Oliver
“Mama, Mama, help me get home
I'm out in the woods, I am out on my own.
I found me a werewolf, a nasty old mutt
It showed me its teeth and went straight for my gut.

Mama, Mama, help me get home
I'm out in the woods, I am out on my own.
I was stopped by a vampire, a rotting old wreck
It showed me its teeth and went straight for my neck.

Mama, Mama, put me to bed
I won't make it home, I'm already half-dead.
I met an Invalid, and fell for his art
He showed me his smile, and went straight for my heart.

-From "A Child's Walk Home," Nursery Rhymes and Folk Tales”
Lauren Oliver, Delirium
