Time to meet the author I'm hosting: Vanessa Barneveld! 

 

Australian Vanessa Barneveld lives in a 19th-century house in inner-city Sydney with a 21st-century husband, two eccentric cats and one ghost—all of whom provide inspiration for her spirited novels. In addition to her writing career, she’s part of a crack team that produces closed captions for deaf TV viewers and audio descriptions for the blind.


I heard a rumor that Vanessa's lucky number is:

It’s my senior year, and I’ve never felt more helpless. Mom is MIA, Dad can’t deal, and this strange exhaustion is making me fall asleep in class. It’s like I’m falling apart.

 

And then there’s Hayden, the cute new boy in school—who weirdly can’t seem to keep his eyes off me.

 

But when Hayden approaches me, claiming he and I have been routinely abducted by aliens since childhood, that’s when things hit a whole new level of strange. Because I’d remember something like that.

 

Right?

 

 

Slowly, I start to realize there are blocks of time I can’t account for. And when I begin having horrible nightmares—which match Hayden’s stories—I realize I might have to put my trust in this boy to have any hope of uncovering the truth. 

 

But it turns out the abductions are just the beginning…and it isn’t only our freedom on the line. It’s our lives.

THE ABDUCTION doesn't come out until 2021, so Vanessa's giving away a copy of her fabulous critique partner's book:
 
DATING MAKES PERFECT!
