BLOG TOUR: The Graces by Laure Eve--an Interview with Summer Grace

http://www.rockstarbooktours.com/

Hey all! Today I have a special guest on the blog! You might recognize her as she had a huge role in The Graces! No, I'm not talking about Laure Eve, silly! I'm talking about Summer! Summer Grace is River's best friend and I was most interested in talking with her since she's rumored to be involved with magic!!


Jessica: What's your favorite hobby?

Summer: Finding out secrets.

Jessica: Where did you learn your magic lore? Like when you were doing a spell during lunch with the students?

Summer: From my parents. Try and get them to admit that to you, though. I'd definitely like to watch how that would go.

J: If you could have a superpower what would it be?

S: I'd like to fly. Far, far away.

J: Do you truly believe your family is cursed?

S: Man, I don't know. Why don't you ask me again when everyone I love is dead?

J: Where do you think you'll be in five years?

S: A: The lead singer of the single most badass female fronted band in history. B: drunk in a sewer.

J: Do you believe in magic?

S: I believe in possibilities.

J: What are you hoping to happen with your newfound friendship with River?

S: What am I hoping to happen? Nothing. Everything. She'll let me in eventually. I'm determined to know everything there is to know about her. Whatever it takes.


Check out The Graces by Laure Eve:

In The Graces, the first rule of witchcraft states that if you want something badly enough, you can get it . . . no matter who has to pay.

Everyone loves the Graces. Fenrin, Thalia, and Summer Grace are captivating, wealthy, and glamorous. They’ve managed to cast a spell over not just their high school but also their entire town—and they’re rumored to have powerful connections all over the world. If you’re not in love with one of them, you want to be them. Especially River: the loner, new girl at school. She’s different from her peers, who both revere and fear the Grace family. She wants to be a Grace more than anything. And what the Graces don’t know is that River’s presence in town is no accident.

This fabulously addictive fantasy combines sophisticated and haunting prose with a gut-punching twist that readers will be dying to discuss. Perfect for fans of We Were Liars as well as nostalgic classics like Buffy the Vampire Slayer and the 1996 movie The Craft, The Graces marks the beginning of a new wave of teen witches.

Meet the author:

A French-British hybrid who grew up in Cornwall, a place saturated with myth and fantasy. Being a child of two cultures taught her everything she needed to know about trying to fit in at the same time as trying to stand out.

She speaks English and French, and can hold a vague conversation, usually about food, in Greek.

A random selection of favourite things: Terry Pratchett quotes, characters with questionable morals, Jean-Claude Van Damme, Häagen-Dazs cookie dough ice cream, anything Trent Reznor is remotely involved in even if it only extends to 'he once touched this artist's arm', bad 90s dance music and anything a bit weird (see: Davids Lynch and Cronenberg).
