Rock and a Hard Place Blog Tour: Interview with Angie Stanton + Giveaway!

 A: The biggest challenges were research. I don’t want to giveaway too much, so I’ll just say I talked to police officers and social workers.

A: I love the scene at Red Rocks Amphitheater in Colorado. It’s a point in the story where everything is building to this one moment. So much is at stake and it’s an impossible situation. I recently read the book again and I found myself on the edge of my seat, excited and teary as I read that scene.

 A: Jennifer Lawrence. She seems like she’d be so much fun. She’s smart and funny and down to earth. Maybe Rock and a Hard Place could be made into a movie and she could star in it! Yeah, I’d be good with that!

 A: In Love ‘em or Leave ‘em, I’d say the lead character, Ashley, is most like me. She’s out of her element and is always doing something embarrassing. That pretty much sums me up, too.

A: Other than my own books, I recommend Time Traveller’s Wife by Audrey Niffenegger. I love that book! Also, On the Island by Tracey Garvis-Graves. It’s a stranded-on-a-deserted-island story, plus so much more.

A: Royally Lost is so much fun. It’s about a girl on trip to Europe with her family who meets a runaway prince. There is a lot of adventure and humor, and what girl wouldn’t want to fall in love with a prince! 

Thank you so much for visiting Teen Readers' Diary Angie! Rock and a Hard Place was such an adorable read and I can't wait to have Royally Lost in my hands. A book about a girl on a European trip? Count me in!

Blurb:

Perfect for fans of Sarah Dessen, Jenny Han, and Susane Colasanti, Angie Stanton's swoon-worthy romance--about an ordinary girl and a young rock star--will keep readers on the edge of their seats . . . and leave them wanting more.

In an instant, Libby's life went from picture-perfect to a nightmare. After surviving a terrible car accident, Libby is abandoned by her father and left with her controlling aunt. A new town, a new school, no friends--Libby is utterly alone. But then she meets Peter.

The lead singer in a rock band with his brothers, Peter hates that his parents overly manage his life. Constantly surrounded by family, Peter just wants to get away. And when he meets Libby, he's finally found the one person who just wants to be with him, not the rock star.

But while Peter battles his family's growing interference in both his music and personal life, Libby struggles with her aunt, who turns nastier each day. And even though Libby and Peter desperately want to be together, their drastically different lives threaten to keep them apart forever.

Author Bio

Angie Stanton never planned on writing books, she wanted to be a Rockette. However, growing up in a rural setting with her brothers' 4-H pigs as pets, dance didn't work out. Instead she became an avid daydreamer. After years of perfecting stories in her head she began to write them down and the rest is history.

She loves dipping french fries in chocolate shakes, all natural disaster movies and Broadway Musicals. When not writing, Angie is concocting ways to make more dreams come true, whether it be tickets to a Broadway show or convincing her family they should rent an RV and travel the country. She's still working on that one.

Angie is a proud double finalist of the 2011 National Readers Choice Awards for Love 'em or Leave 'em, as well as a finalist for the Golden Quill Awards.
