Alissa J. Zavalianos grew up in New Hampshire and currently lives there with her wonderful husband, sweet daughter, and mischievous cat, Moo. As a child, she always had a love for nature, books, and fairy tales, and as she grew older, that love bloomed all the more. Alissa loves Jesus and is inspired by birds, mountains, castles, Tolkien, Lewis, and the way a cold breath of wind feels on her bare toes.

I want to travel the same paths Bilbo and Frodo travelled, and with the ring of power destroyed, my hope is that the lands would be peaceable enough to pass without any issues. For Narnia, I want to visit the time when the land was just born, listening to Aslan sing the world into existence. I can imagine stumbling into The Wood Between the Worlds would be fascinating as well.
And lastly, I've always held a fondness for Neverland. If I could be part of the Lost Boy tribe for a day, I think I'd be the happiest girl whose childhood dreams were fulfilled.(less)

Sigra's Roost by T.D. Orel
"4.75✨

This series is superb! It’s genuinely of the most unique and creative stories I’ve read in a long time. While there are some typical tropes throughout, they all have their own twist to them. I love Darren and Tenebrose’s relationship; it’s defin" Read more of this review »

Quotes by Alissa J. Zavalianos  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“What might this mean?' Moo questioned.

'That all that's beautiful and green will turn to ash. That the sun will no longer shine upon a fruitful land, instead it will shine where there's but naught a sprout to grow. Humankind may cease to exist as it does presently, and all that remains will be a corruption darker than our lands have ever known. The Darkness will rise, perhaps in more ways than one.”
Alissa J. Zavalianos, The Earth-Treader

“She fought against the expectation that growing up meant she needed to surrender her imagination.”
Alissa J. Zavalianos, The Wishing Seed

“In fact, it only seemed to enhance it, making him wonder what Holland would look like in one of his own shirts. Blast. Now was not the time for this.”
Alissa J. Zavalianos, Endlewood

“You can never get a cup of tea large enough or a book long enough to suit me.”
C.S. Lewis

“Some day you will be old enough to start reading fairy tales again.”
C.S. Lewis

“If we find ourselves with a desire that nothing in this world can satisfy, the most probable explanation is that we were made for another world.”
C.S. Lewis

“The Christian does not think God will love us because we are good, but that God will make us good because He loves us.”
C.S. Lewis

“No book is really worth reading at the age of ten which is not equally – and often far more – worth reading at the age of fifty and beyond.”
