Shannon Grogan is a second grade teacher who writes at night (and while her kids are at ballet and baseball) in a small logging town east of Seattle. She holds degrees in education and graphic design/illustration. When she isn't writing, she's baking, reading, watching scary movies, and wishing she were at the beach. You can find out more about her online at www.shannongrogan.com. From Where I Watch You is her first novel.
Praise for From Where I Watch You
"Lyrical prose + riveting mystery + mouth-watering baked goods =
one of the best books I've read in years. I stayed up too late,
creeped out and glued to the pages. Shannon's debut marks her as a
voice to watch."
--Mandy Hubbard, author of Prada and Prejudice and Fool Me Twice
"From Where I Watch You is impossible to put down, as addictive as
the sugar cookies the main character loves to bake. The story's
many ingredients make it uniquely suspenseful, multi-layered, and
easy to gobble up. I couldn't stop!"
--Janet Gurtler, bestselling author of I'm Not Her "This powerful
debut [will keep readers] guessing until the end, which is shocking
as the final details are revealed . . . A suspenseful and
fast-paced read . . . This novel will do well in YA collections
where dark, realistic fiction is in demand."
--School Library Journal "The story builds and sustains tension
deftly, offering just the right level of clues as to the identity
of the stalker. Kara's love of baking is a nifty distinguishing
feature, and the author includes her cookie recipe at the end.
Involving and suspenseful."
--Kirkus Reviews "A mingling of creepy and cautionary--everyone
being so caught up in themselves they fail to see what is happening
to those closest to them."
--VOYA "I loved Kara's voice. Filled with sweet and spicy
characters, From Where I Watch You is a delectable YA
thriller."
--Jeanne Ryan, author of NERVE "From Where I Watch You is a
delicious young adult suspense [novel]."
