“Loyalty to a secret above all else.” In this episode of Fictional Hangover, Amanda and Claire talk about the fact that this book is not a sexy space adventure, multiple requests for someone to send us a digital postcard, how being too rich is having an indoor living room swimming pool, having a wild vibe, and for some reason, poop crying in their discussion of Stars and Smoke by Marie Lu.

Today I am chatting with NY Times Bestselling author Marie Lu! We will be chatting all about her new book, Icon and Inferno; the sequel to Stars and Smoke. Take a listen as Marie and I chat about her writing process, what inspired her to take a break from writing fantasy and write a thriller instead (it'll surprise you!), the research she did for these two books, how Starbucks gift cards can be used as spy tech, the romance between Sydney and Winter, what's up next for Marie, and more! The entire episode is spoiler FREE!A little about Icon and Inferno: A year has passed since superstar Winter Young last saw secret agent Sydney Cossette. After barely surviving their first assignment together in London -- and their intense chemistry – the two haven't spoken at all. Though they're never far from the other's thoughts, or fantasies.So when Syndey shows up at Winter's studio one day with a new mission from Panacea, he has no choice but to accept. With the clock ticking, the duo prepares to head to Singapore to rescue an operative in danger -- only to learn he's none other than Sydney's ex, a rogue agent known as the Arsonist.Of course, nothing is ever simple when it comes to Winter and Sydney. Especially not with the glamorous Gavi Ginsburg, a globe-trotting socialite and Winter's one-time girlfriend, in the mix. Is she back for Winter's heart – or does she have her eye on another prize?The smoldering sequel to New York Times bestselling Stars and Smoke follows Winter and Sydney on yet another treacherous mission that grows more sinister with each twist and turn. To make it out alive, they'll have to figure out how to be partners again -- and if they can resist the burn of something more.Thank you so much to Marie Lu for being my guest today and thank you also to Tatiana Merced-Zarou at Macmillan for setting up the interview.

ONE LOOK AND IT'S ALL OVER...MEET THE AUTHOR Podcast: LIVE - Episode 157Originally aired Wednesday May 22,2024Featuring Multi-genre author AARON RYAN.ABOUT AARON: Aaron Ryan lives in Washington with his wife and two sons, along with Macy the dog, Winston the cat, and Merry & Pippin, the finches. He is the author of the "Dissonance" series, several business books on multimedia production penned under a pseudonym, as well as a previous fictional novel, "The Omega Room." When he was in second grade, he was tasked with writing a creative assignment: a fictional book. And thus, “The Electric Boy” was born: a simple novella full of intrigue, fantasy, and 7-year-old wits that electrified Aaron's desire to write. From that point forward, Aaron evolved into a creative soul that desired to create. He enjoys the arts, media, music, performing, poetry, and being a daddy. In his lifetime he has been an author, voiceover artist, wedding videographer, stage performer, musician, producer, rock/pop artist, executive assistant, service manager, paperboy, CSR, poet, tech support, worship leader, and more. The diversity of his life experiences gives him a unique approach to business, life, ministry, faith, and entertainment. Aaron's favorite author by far is J.R.R. Tolkien, but he also enjoys Suzanne Collins, James S.A. Corey, Marie Lu, Madeleine L'Engle, C.S. Lewis, and Stephen King. Aaron has always had a passion for storytelling.Links to watch or listen to all episodes at:https://indiebooksource.com/podcast

His rabid fans would move heaven and earth for even a glimpse of him―just imagine what they'd do to become his latest fling.Meet Sydney Cossette―Part of an elite covert ops group, Sydney joined their ranks as their youngest spy with plans to become the best agent they've ever had.

In this excerpt from my book Leading Like a C.O.A.C.H., I described my experience observing a book club-style discussion via Zoom. I learn as much as anyone when I visit classrooms with a stance toward curiosity.Instructional walks offer a responsive and authentic approach to continuous professional development for all educators. This development includes principals. I have learned as much as my teachers have from my regular classroom visits. Until instructional walks became a priority, my background in literacy was limited to the resources I read while teaching full time.For example, during an instructional walk in an online middle level classroom, I observed students discussing the books they were reading for their clubs. Within the video conferencing tool, they would take turns sharing their thinking about what they had previously read, prompted by their teachers (Dalton Miles, Kris McCoy).As the group transitioned to a whole group reading strategy lesson, I thought to myself, “The teachers devoted significant time for students to share their understanding. Would it have been more efficient to give a quick quiz?” This thinking was partially based on this new platform (Zoom); instruction seems to require more time when online. Yet I knew my role was not to judge but to notice what was occurring through an appreciative lens. So, I continued to observe as the teachers demonstrated their thinking processes for one of the books they were reading.Later, I emailed my notes to the teachers, acknowledging the opportunity they gave their students to share their understanding of what they had read so far. I also wondered why they devoted that amount of time to check for understanding. Through our conversation, I learned that public check-ins help everyone construct meaning about the text. In addition, the teachers would use their responses as teaching opportunities. For example, a student shared their observation from Legend by Marie Lu that mortality rates were high in their science fiction story. Dalton responded: "Things aren't great in this dystopian American society." This follow-up affirmed the student’s thinking and included genre-specific terms in the discussion for the group to hear.My initial belief was to maximize instructional time in the form of direct teaching and brief assessments. What I learned is that giving students the opportunity to share their thinking about their books is instructional time. The teachers’ responsive approach to facilitating conversations around books also encouraged them to identify as readers.With an open mind during the walk, my understanding improved. I remembered the importance of assuming a teacher believes they are doing the best they can for their students, and then recognized the authentic environment they created for readers. Had I come into the classroom with only my pre-existing thinking about reading instruction (which does not include any experience teaching these grades), our conversation may not have led to a better understanding on my end, nor the teachers affirmed in their practice. Our conversation around their decision making was supported by my curiosity. This is a public episode.

To be honest, sometimes I am not too invested in the games my husband plays. I bet that's a feeling that every backseat gamer knows too well. However, sometimes he tries to make it a little extra special for me and picks a game that caters exactly to what I like. So in today's episode - inspired by the game 'Alan Wake' - we will talk about some books with open endings...you hate them or you love them...

Tune in for Arthur's thoughts on Steelstriker, the second and final entry in the Skyhunter Duology by Marie Lu (Legend, Warcross). Like the first book, this sequel brings out the dystopian YA tropes: “special rebel youngsters lead an insurrection against a dictatorial government,” “post-apocalyptic world built on the ashes of a technologically advanced civilization,” and “psychic bond romance.” Is Arthur up for all of them? In this specific package, yes, yes he is.
