Book Trailer: Agnes at the End of the World!

This beautiful video was created by Alex Lopez, book blogger and founder of The Reading Corner for All! It so well captures the mood of AGNES AT THE END OF THE WORLD that I wanted to share it here.

E.G. Moore answered Kelly McWilliams's question: Do you really live in Couer d'Alene, Idaho? I ask because that is a major setting in Sharon Creech's Walk Two Moons! Hello! I did live in Coeur d'Alene, and still live in that area! That's a great book!

I so love this book!!!! It’s hilarious, unputdownable, and a rollicking Western with werewolves thrown in. It’s also just so well paced and thoughtfully written. The Lady Janies have done it again!

Kelly’s Quotes

“Tinkering had always come easily to Nate, but he'd never done it like this. Severed a thin wire, a warm thread between his heart and another. It hurt far more than being bitten by the jagged edge of a live wire.”
