"With wit and sass, Stephanie Morrill has penned a story vividly real in its triumphs and disappointments. I couldn't put it down and didn't want it to end! This is what young adult fiction should be." ~ Roseanna M. White, author of RING OF SECRETS"Once again Stephanie Morrill has perfectly captured the joys and dramas of a teen girl's world. This is one 'sweet' read!" ~ Jenny B. Jones, Award-winning author of THERE YOU'LL FIND ME & A Charmed Life series"THE REVISED LIFE OF ELLIE SWEET is a fast-paced, fun story with vividly real characters. Touching on lots of the everyday issues teens face, it is an intriguing look at relationships and high school ups and downs. A must-read for young adults, who will relate to Ellie and her struggles to be true to herself." ~ Melanie Dickerson, Award-winning author of THE FAIREST BEAUTY, THE MERCHANT'S DAUGHTER, and THE HEALER'S APPRENTICE"Glimpsing a peek inside Ellie's thoughts and fears brought back reminders of my own teen journey, when life was messy, complicated, and out of control. Ellie offers a heartfelt and highly entertaining warning of what happens when we insist on doing it all ourselves—and the blessings that come when we let go." ~ Betsy St. Amant, Author of ADDISON BLAKELY, CONFESSIONS OF A PK——————-Ellie Sweet is a lot of things—good girl, novelist, silent adorer of the new boy at school, Palmer. But when "outcast" gets added to the list, she decides it's time to take reality into her own hands ... and tweak it as needed.In the pages of her book, she's Lady Gabrielle, favorite of the medieval Italian court. Her once-friends are reduced to catty ladies-in-waiting, and the too-charming Palmer—who in real life never spares her a second word—gets to be nothing more than a rake wracked by unrequited love for her. She even has a perfect real-life villain in the brooding Chase, who hails from the wrong side of town.But just when she's getting along great in her fictional world, the real one throws her a few curves. With Chase pursuing her, Palmer wanting to date her—but in secret—and the details of her manuscript going public, Ellie suddenly receives more attention than she ever really wanted. And when her former-friends discover what she's been writing, they're determined to teach Ellie a lesson about the severe consequences of using her pen as her sword.——————-Stephanie Morrill lives in Overland Park, Kansas with her husband and two kids. Her only talents are reading, writing, and drinking coffee, so career options were somewhat limited. Fortunately she discovered a passion for young adult novels and has been writing them ever since. Stephanie is the author of The Reinvention of Skylar Hoyt series and The Revised Life of Ellie Sweet. She enjoys encouraging and teaching teen writers on her blog, GoTeenWriters.
