The lovely Miranda Kenneally wrote an insightful guest post
as part of the blog tour to celebrate the release of the fantastic RACING
SAVANNAH.
What do you
hope readers gain from reading your books?
Thanks for
having me on your blog today! What a great question - I don't think anyone's
ever asked me that before.
I know that
some readers have been disappointed that all my books aren't mirror images of
CATCHING JORDAN, and I've heard other readers are disappointed that RACING
SAVANNAH and CATCHING JORDAN aren't as "deep" as STEALING PARKER or
THINGS I CAN'T FORGET. But I have been very deliberate in what I write
about and who the main girl characters are in my books.
You see, I
want to write a variety of books for different types of girls who come from
different backgrounds. I want to show that even if a character is poor or rich,
they still have every right to work hard and go after their dreams. They still
have a right to go after that hot guy, too!
I am
thrilled that different readers like and relate to some of my books more than
others. I want readers to take whatever they want out of my books, whether one
encourages a girl to go after her dreams, or just makes a girl laugh. Readers
can like or dislike my books - it's all up to them.
When I'm
reading, I want a good romance, but I also want to learn about something new or
visit a place I've never been before. I love reading fiction that involves
travel and road-trips.
What do you like most about reading?
Miranda

I really enjoyed RACING SAVANNAH

What an interesting guest post! I enjoy books that involve travel and different settings too! Miranda seems to have a wonderful attitude towards reading, writing, and her fans. Awesome!
