We’re so excited that the gorgeous tween novel Paris On Repeat by Amy Bearce publishes in the US today with Jolly Fish Press.
School Library Journal called the book “A great read for any middle grade reader who needs encouragement and a reminder that they are capable of more than they realize” with fellow author Cindy Callaghan saying “Tweens will love the sweet Parisian nature and root for Eve’s wish to come true.”
Groundhog Day gets a hilarious French twist in this delightful upper middle grade novel about first crushes and friendship when an eighth-grade class trip to Paris goes horribly wrong and the worst day of one girls life keeps happening over and over.
Fourteen-year-old Eve Hollis is ready to push through her fears and finally let her crush know how she feels. And what better place to tell him than on top of the Eiffel Tower in the City of Love?
But things don’t go as planned, and Eve is sure she’s had the worst day of her life until she wakes up the next morning to realize the whole disaster of a day is happening again.
She’s trapped in a time loop.
Desperate to make it stop, Eve will have to take some big risks and learn from her mistakes or she’s destined to live the most awkwardly painful day of her life over and over again, forever.
Amy writes fantasy and light science fiction for young readers and the young at heart. She is also a former reading teacher and school librarian. As an army kid she moved eight times before she was eighteen, so she feels especially fortunate to be married to her high school sweetheart. Together they’re raising two daughters in Texas.
Huge congratulations, Amy!
