The first thing Christine does when she's getting ready to read a book is to crack the spine in at least five places. She wholeheartedly believes there is no place as comfy as the pages of a well-worn book. She's addicted to buying books, reading books, and writing books.

Christine is from Forest Hill, Maryland where she lives with her husband, three kids, and her library of ugly spine books. ...more

Hi Ella!
Yes, there will be a third book in the Sophisticates series. I intend for the series to be a trilogy so the next book will be the last one. I'm writing the third book now and hope to have it published by next summer. If you follow me on my social media sites (Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram) you'll see updates when I'm ready to publish. Thanks for reading! If you send me your mailing address, I'll send out some Deviation and Conviction bookmarks to you. Email your address to christine@christinemanzari.com. Thanks for contacting me!(less)
Christine Manzari Thanks for entering the giveaway, Yvonne! Glad you got them quickly and I hope you enjoy!

I saw someone else say this is like The Hunger Games meets Pokémon and I like that comparison. The different spirits were such an intriguing part of this story. I’m always a fan of enemies to lovers and a good anti hero. So excited for book two.

“SQUATS, Clementine! And don't stop until class is over. You legs look like they'd snap under the weight of a sack of flour. How do you walk around on those things?"
"I don't know, Professor. One foot in front of the other, I guess.”
Christine Manzari, Deviation

“Well don't get your hopes up," I warned. "I'm a lot more trouble than i'm worth."
"I don't doubt that," he said, indicating my box of junk.
"What did you do to get sent here?"
"I can't tell you."
"Because then you'd have to kill me.”
Christine Manzari, Deviation

“The girl may have been tiny, but everything about her said, I'm not scared of you, so piss off.
Christine Manzari, Deviation
