“If you like the 70’s of ‘Dazed and Confused’ and the 90’s of ‘My So-Called Life’, then you need the 80’s of Arcadia!”--from donnie darko book blog
Would LOVE to get some BOOKTUBERS to review the book...I do have ebooks (which are fun because of the interactive factor...esp IBook...but mobi,pdf,kindle are all avail)...as well as paperbacks (VERY limited in number because i just mailed out a bunch that were requested for booktube!)
the synopsis:
Populated by rockers, Deadheads, misfits, skinheads, Goths, surfers, preppies, cheerleaders, and jocks, ARCADIA by Mandana Towhidy is a Fast Times at Ridgemont High for the Metal years. It's an honest story of Ronnie and her friends (Ezze, Tess, Ash, and Syd), teen girls in the heart of the Hollywood Metal scene during the late 80s/early 90s, ruling it in their own way, with or without the boys, and having the time of their lives: scrounging dimes for burritos, ducking the hallway narcs, getting stoned in the parking lot, and hitching rides to the next party to get wasted, all before noon on a school day. And in the world of Hollywood where more is all you need, Ronnie discovers happiness in Metal and friends and learning to see through the games and the "perfect-ness" of it all. Long Hair Rocks...again!
i would LOVE to put your reviews on the press page and the fb pages i have!
message me on my author page or email me at contact@moreisallyouneed.com
also, when you put in your request, could you include the link to your booktube channel/blog if you have one? just so i can see it for fun. no judgement. don't care if you have 1000000 or 10 followers. :)
