It’s going to be a hot one Epic Readers! Summer is well under way and as the temperature rises, I’m using books to keep me cool in the sun. If you don’t know how to stay in the shade with books, check out these 9 summer reading poses. But before you head off for the beach with your tote bag FULL of all our SPF9 titles, get to know an author of one of those books a little better. Let’s hear it for Wendy Higgins, author of SWEET EVIL! I asked her a few summer-themed questions and she was gracious enough to answer them and share some cute photos with us!
