I forced my main character to relive the same horrible Monday over and over and over again. In my latest book, A WEEK OF MONDAYS, I did something very evil. Because sometimes it takes a whole week of Mondays to figure out what you really want.

Will Ellie ever figure out how to fix this broken day? Or will she be stuck in this nightmare of a Monday forever?įrom the author 52 Reasons to Hate My Father and The Unremembered trilogy comes a hilarious and heartwarming story about second (and third and fourth and fifth) chances.

But it seems no matter how many do-overs she gets or how hard Ellie tries to repair her relationship, Tristan always seems bent set on ending it. So when she wakes up the next morning to find she’s reliving the exact same day, she knows what she has to do: stop her boyfriend from breaking up with her. And Ellie is positive that if she could just do it all over again, she would get it right. For no good reason!Īs far as Mondays go, it doesn’t get much worse than this. She gets a ticket for running a red light, she manages to take the world’s worst school picture, she bombs softball try-outs and her class election speech (note to self: never trust a cheerleader when she swears there are no nuts in her bake-sale banana bread), and to top it all off, Tristan, her gorgeous rocker boyfriend suddenly dumps her. Sixteen-year-old Ellison Sparks is having a serious case of the Mondays.

I never, in a million years, thought it might actually come true. When I made the wish, I just wanted a do-over. Published by Farrar Straus and Giroux on August 2, 2016 A Week of Mondays by 13, 2016 Michelle Book Briefs Blog Tours, Guest Post, Young Adult 1
