This is W.A.R.: Who Would You Cast...

Lisa and Laura Roecker have recently published a new book and in celebration of their new books they are having a TOUR!! 

For this stop on the tour Lisa and Laura have cast their character Rose: Selena Gomez 

What the authors said about their pick: [Rose would be played by Selena Gomez. Rose is exotic, with dark hair and eyes. She doesn't yet understand the power of her beauty and hasn't learned to embrace it. She’s uncomfortable in her skin and self-deprecating. While one day she will grow and learn and exude confidence,for now she’s still learning.]

Author Bio

Lisa and Laura Roecker are sisters-turned-writing partners with a passion for good books, pop culture, and Bravo programming. Not necessarily in that order. A prepubescent obsession with Lois Duncan and their mother's insistence that they read Men Are Just Desserts inspired This is WAR. The sisters live in Cleveland, Ohio, in separate residences. Their husbands wouldn't agree to a duplex. Cyberstalking is always encouraged at lisa-laura.blogspot.com and @landlroecker on Twitter.

This Means War by Lisa and Laura Roecker

This is not a story of forgiveness... The mystery of their best friend's murder drives four girls to destroy the Gregory family. Emily Thorne would be proud.

Everyone at Hawthorne Lake Country Club saw Willa Ames-Rowan climb into a boat with James Gregory, the Club’s heir apparent.And everyone at Hawthorne Lake Country Club watched him return. Alone.They all know he killed her. But none of them will say a word. The Gregory family is very, very good at making problems go away. Enter the W.A.R.—the war to avenge Willa Ames-Rowan. Four girls. Four very different motives for justice and revenge, and only one rule: destroy the Gregory family at any cost.

Thing have been happening...

Seriously, whatever.

It's kind of crazy how everything can be just fine one moment and then the next three moments are hectic crazy. I know I have been neglectful and that is mainly because all the sudden things started happening. Big things.

Death:
For the last thirty so years my aunt has been battling MS. I don't know much about MS but I do know it's painful and more often then not leads to premature death. My aunt fought hard for years but she passed away on March 15th. My family headed off to Arkansas for the funeral right away. My mom ended up having to stay longer to help with my grandpa who is suffering with cancer. In the mix I ended up staying there with her for the extra week.

After we got home I only had a few days to pack before I thought I would be going to Arizona for a few days before making my way back to Idaho and starting school. So why am I not in Arizona right now soaking up the sun and swimming everyday? See below.

Surgery:
I'd been having this awful pain in my stomach for the past few months. I thought it was the type of foods I was eating so I had been avoiding certain foods and really trying to make it go away. It was the terrible kind of pain where you can't even sleep till it passes. Except on this passed Monday the pain came back with a vengeance  It lasted all day and finally at nine I asked my mom to take me to the emergency room.

Long story short I had my gall bladder removed last week. Everything with the surgery went fine and I am doing MUCH MUCH better. I'm just glad the pain is gone and I can focus on getting recovered.

So:
I didn't end up going to Arizona like planned but instead I am still in Georgia and will be going straight to Idaho next week. Sad but true.

The good news?
I'm enrolled in a YA Lit class for this semester and am required to read about 30 books by the semesters end. I decided I would review each one on this blog as a sort of project for the blog. I'm really excited to see what books the teacher is going to have us read!

Reading Report:
What I am currently reading: Wicked by Sara Shepard (I recently became addicted to this series. It was one of those that I refused to start because I thought I wouldn't like it. I was wrong. Really wrong.)
Recently Finished: Pretty Little Liars, Flawless, Perfect, Unbelievable, Mind Games (AH!!!!), I'd tell you I love you, but then I'd have to kill you, and Dead is So Last Year. (I think I got my swing back. Good-bye for now, book coma!)
Up Next: Killer by Sara Shepard
