She even turned her dining room into a library—reading is more important than eating. She also has a weakness for adventure and inappropriate humor. 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’m glad that’s over. It’s took me months to read this book. I don’t think I’ll read the next one. I liked the premise but it just didn’t hit right for me. I think a lot of people will like it though.

“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
