Title: The
Second Life of Magnolia Mae
Author: Angela Schroeder
Genre: Young Adult
Release Date: December 2
Publisher: Blue Tulip Publishing
Magnolia Mae has always had strange dreams, even before her
parents died in a car crash leaving her older brother to raise her. Only a few
weeks before Halloween and her eighteenth birthday the dreams start to come
more frequently, her life seems even more chaotic than usual and the guilt that
she did not stop her parents’ death is beginning to tear her apart. The only
one who has never treated her like an outcast is handsome Bash, the boy whose
eyes have haunted nearly all of her dreams.
As Halloween draws closer Magnolia enlists the help of her
brother and Bash to try to discover what these dreams mean. Why does it feel
like she has lived what she sees and why are Bash’s eyes in every dream?
If not for Magnolia, her parents would be alive. She’d known
they were going to get into a car wreck. She had seen it two nights before it
happened. The screams had echoed in her head, the bursts of lightning mixed
with the flashes of red and blue from the emergency responders had been forever
implanted in her memory even before it had happened. The dream had seemed so
real — they always seemed so real — that she’d cried hysterically until her
parents found her curled on the floor of her room. They had assured her that it
had only been a nightmare. Two nights later, they’d gone out in a storm to pick
her up from rehearsal. Trying to avoid the deer had thrown their car into a hydroplane
that had connected them with a lone tree in the ditch.
Angela Schroeder is a single mother of three. She was born
and raised in Iowa in a river town known for its pearl buttons. Having four
siblings she never lacked for someone to play with, as she grew older she found
herself pulled into books and writing more and more.
Her parents are her heroes, her siblings her confidants and
tormentors and her children are a wonderful blessing. Church is important to
her children and her. They enjoy the friendships they've made with the people
there.
Writing has always been a passion. Her first experience was
in fifth grade when she went to a one day writing conference. After that she
knew it was something she wanted to pursue.
