Island of Stars, by Carrie Brownell

Reading to Know · 10 hrs ago · 2 views

Well, it finally happened! I wrote my (first) book. Island of Stars was released this past August and it is in keeping with all of the books I've ever indicated that I loved reading: Nesbit, Lewis, Ransom, Stewart, etc. It is historical fiction / fantasy and rather on the lengthy side, coming in at 400-ish pages. (It contains very short chapters to help out younger readers though!) I intentionally wrote a longer story because I, myself, love a good piece of Middle Grade Fiction and I wrote what I would want to read. It's longer than Anne of Green Gables, but shorter than my beloved Mysterious Benedict Society. Somewhere right in the middle.You can find the book on Amazon or you can purchase it directly from the publisher, Bookmonkey Press. It is available on eBook (through Amazon) and also on audiobook (via Amazon, Libri, Spotify, and at Barnes & Noble!)You can catch a few reviews of it on Goodreads and I would be delighted if you were willing to help spread the word.
