about this author
I love to write!
I love to read!
I love tea and cookies!!
I'm the author of the young adult novels I HEART YOU, YOU HAUNT ME and FAR FROM YOU, both published by Simon Pulse. If you've read one or both, thank you! If you haven't, why not?
Here's what people are saying about FAR FROM YOU:
Kirkus Reviews: "Genuine emotion...the accessibility and heart ache will attract many readers."
yabookscentral.com: "The gorgeous language strikes a chord that resonates long after the tale is done."
Vanessa of whatvanessareads: "I truly believe girls in this world are like Alice proving that Lisa Schroeder knows how to create authentic characters."

""Was it hard?" I ask.
"Letting go?"
"Not as hard as holding on to something that wasn't real.""

"Guilt reminds me of a stray cat. You chase it away and yet, it comes back when you least expect it. If you let yourself feel pity for it and feed the thing, it parks its ugly, puny, lonely-for-attention butt on your doormat and won't go away. Scat kitty cat, scat. I don't need you sitting around here like that."

"When you meet someone so different from yourself, in a good way, you don't even have to kiss to have fireworks go off. It's like fireworks in your heart all the time. I always wondered, do opposites really attract? Now I know for sure they do. I'd grown up going to the library as often as most people go to the grocery store. Jackson didn't need to read about exciting people or places. He went out and found them, or created excitement himself if there wasn't any to be found. The things I like are pretty simple. Burning CDs around themes, like Songs to Get You Groove On and Tunes to Fix a Broken Heart; watching movies; baking cookies; and swimming. It's like I was a salad with a light vinaigrette, and Jackson was a platter of seafood Cajun pasta. Alone, we were good. Together, we were fantastic."
