My Sister's Reaper by Dorothy Dreyer
Sixteen-year-old Zadie’s first mistake was telling the boy she liked she could bring her dead sister back to life. Her second mistake was actually doing it.
When Zadie accidentally messes with the Reaper’s Rite that should have claimed her sister Mara, things go horribly wrong. Mara isn’t the same anymore—Zadie isn’t even sure she’s completely human, and to top it off, a Reaper is determined to collect Mara’s soul no matter what. Now Zadie must figure out how to defeat her sister’s Reaper, or let Mara die … this time for good.
Author Dorothy DreyerI'm a Philippine-born American living in Germany with my husband and two teens. I write young adult books that usually have some element of magic or the supernatural in them. I also like to read those kinds of books. Aside from reading, I like movies, chocolate, take-out, coffee, traveling, and having fun with my friends and family. I've also been known to make a pretty sweet cupcake. I tend to sing sometimes, too, so keep me away from your Karaoke bars.
PLEASE WELCOME DOROTHY TO BOOKHOUNDS
1. What is the first book you remember reading by yourself as a child?
It's really hard to remember that far back, but I'm pretty sure it was either a Curious George book or Cat in the Hat. I know we had those books in the house when I was a child, so it must have been one of those.
2. What are you reading right now?
The Raven Boys by Maggie Stiefvater. I got the sequel, Dream Thieves, when I was at BEA in New York this year, so I'm excited to have the next book ready and waiting for me.
3. How does your garden grow?
My thumbs are nowhere near green. I wish it wasn't so because I love gardens and flowers. But there you have it. I have managed to keep a few house plants alive. I call them the survivors.
4. What is the last thing you Googled?
The last thing I Googled were the dates for BEA 2014.
5. What makes you cringe?
People who bite their forks! OMG I can't even think about it without cringing. *shudders*
Thanks so much for having me on the blog!
(I am really cringing right now -- eww -- people biting their forks? - No, just no.)
