Book Description for :
It was the first day of school and anxieties were running high. For
certain there was the excitement of moving up a grade, but there was
also the dread of anything and everything that could go wrong. Not only
were the possibilities endless, they were totally out of your control.
Whether or not you were accepted rested squarely on the shoulders of the
popular kids. Suppose you were too short or too tall; too smart or not
smart enough; too rich or too poor; or just plain different?

Whether or not you were accepted rested squarely on the shoulders of the
popular kids. Suppose you were too short or too tall; too smart or not
smart enough; too rich or too poor; or just plain different?
These thoughts were fresh on the minds of Otis, Chandler and Marissa. Three
pre-teens whose paths had never crossed, although they lived in the same
town in Connecticut. Their backgrounds were so diverse they may as well
have lived worlds apart. That was all about to change when on their way
to school a series of bizarre events lump them together. Literally!

These experiences have given her a deep understanding of the trials and
struggles associated with a compromised existence. As well as the
inspiration and joy derived from living life to one's personal best.

What is My Next Project? by Trudie L. Hayes
Funny you would ask! Having gotten over the hump--there are no
limits. This does not mean I will be spewing out books fast and
furiously. It does mean now that I have given myself permission to
write (or pursue any other creative endeavor)...I can. Simple as
that. I am comfortable and becoming more so with each passing day.
I am already working on a sequel to
Conversion and have
plans for a third. I am also re-releasing, a wonderful children's
book under my own brand, LoveYourMe. It is a beautiful first reader
with exquisite illustrations. A smaller version was released a few
years ago. This edition is bigger and better!
Last but not least I am putting together a more complicated grown-up
book. It has taken me a while to wrap my head around this one and the
time is right.
There truly are no limits as long as we love what we do; and what we
do is for ourselves and not others. Getting over the threshold took
some time. Being here, however, made it all worthwhile!
My review;
"Convergence" by author Trudie L. Hayes is not just for younger adults. It is also the kind of book that adults who like science fiction and or fantasy books would like. I really liked this storyline about 3 young people on their first day of school not really knowing each other . but find out that they have more in common than they even thought. The characters and their interactions were interesting. At times during the book it was a little hard to figure out some of the events but it was still a great book to read. I give this book a 4/5. I was given this book for a review and all opinions are mine.
