The Woman in the Water



Well, this little monstrosity is officially on preorder. Here is how I would describe it: Taylor Swift's "'tis the damn season" as a Gothic mystery, with a prickly, unreliable narrator who can't stop sleepwalking. And there is a swamp--that's important. I've written two books in the last year and I have a head cold, so I'm pretty much out of words now that it's time to, like, talk about the book.

"But it was no human voice that called to me that night—no human hand that tugged on my own, down into dark water that looked bottomless. What I didn’t know then was that it was also a signal, a warning, of the end of that dream I was living in. That the next few months would see every last person I trusted give up on me, until there were none left, even the boy I loved, who I was certain loved me back. But those breaking points, I learned, were moments of truth, not anomalies. Nobody ever turned on me who hadn’t already seen me as deceitful, unbalanced, a cautionary tale for other people’s children: in other words, a teenage girl from the wrong part of town."
