A Conversation with Andrew Eliopulos

We are really excited to welcome Andrew Eliopuls to our online author series. Andrew has been on our schedule for months. We are so sad he won't be able to come and visit us in person. His family lives in GA, so maybe the next time he comes home we can get him in for a signing! The Fascinators is a magic-infused YA Novel about friendship, first love and feeling out of place. This is perfect for fans of Rainbow Rowell and Maggie Stiefvater. Join us July 25th at 5pm on either our facebook page or youtube channel. Links below.

The Fascinators-

Living in a small town where magic is frowned upon, Sam needs his friends James and Delia―and their time together in their school's magic club―to see him through to graduation.

But as soon as senior year starts, little cracks in their group begin to show. Sam may or may not be in love with James. Delia is growing more frustrated with their amateur magic club. And James reveals that he got mixed up with some sketchy magickers over the summer, putting a target on all their backs.

With so many fault lines threatening to derail his hopes for the year, Sam is forced to face the fact that the very love of magic that brought his group together is now tearing them apart―and there are some problems that no amount of magic can fix.

Reviews

The Fascinators is a potent brew of magic, romance, betrayal, and the transformative power of friendship—bewitching!” (Elana K. Arnold, Printz Honor-winning author of Damsel)

"The Fascinators is a fascinating exploration of the places where magic intersects with love and friendship, bringing some together while pulling others apart. You won't be able to stop turning the pages of this book once its powerful spell takes hold."  (Christopher Barzak, author of Wonders of the Invisible World)
