MetaxuCafe UpdatesSearching Member Sites
I’ve recently added a search function so that you can limit your Google search to just the blogs that are members of MetaxuCafe. I think that will be a good resource for everyone looking for literary topics online and you’ll find it right on the front page as well as other places on the site. Now if you want to read about, say Orhan Pamuk, but only want to search the litblogs you trust, you can narrow your search right here.
The Liar’s Diary
by DebraBroughton on January 29, 2008
The Liar’s Diary by Patry Francis is released today in paperback.
With a title like that, you can expect it to be a compelling read.
Here’s the description:
When new music teacher Ali Mather enters Jeanne Cross’s quiet suburban life, she brings a jolt of energy that Jeanne never expected. Ali has a magnetic personality and looks to match, drawing attention from all quarters. Nonetheless, Jeanne and Ali develop a friendship based on their mutual vulnerabilities The Liar’s Diary is the story of Ali and Jeanne’s friendship, and the secrets they both keep.
Jeanne’s secrets are kept to herself; like her son’s poor report card and husband’s lack of interest in their marriage. Ali’s secrets are kept in her diary, which holds the key to something dark: her fear that someone has been entering her house when she is not at home. While their secrets bring Jeanne and Ali together, it is this secret that will drive them apart. Jeanne finds herself torn between her family and her dear friend in order to protect the people she loves.
A chilling tour of troubled minds, The Liar’s Diary questions just how far you’ll go for your family and what dark truths you’d be willing to admit-even to yourself.
Why am I promoting a book haven’t read yet?
I came across Patry a few years ago, when she was a waitress with a dream of becoming a writer. Her blog was one my favorites for the honest, uplifting stories of everyday life and her accurate observations on the human condition.
I knew Patry would get published one day, so it came as no surprise when she she got that deal.
Right now, Patry is putting her energy and positivity into recovering from cancer, so a group of over 300 bloggers have got together to promote the book, out in paperback today.
But don’t buy Patry’s book because of any of that.
Listen to the audio clip, watch the trailer, check it out in your local bookstore and then buy The Liar’s Diary because Patry Francis is a talented writer who deserves to do well. Or just buy it just because it’s the kind of book you’d like to read.
