I am extremely super excited to be a part of this awesome book blitz for one of my favorite Indie Author's, Marie Landry. She is genuinely sweet, funny, and all kinds of crazy talented. The Angel Island companion series is definitely one of my favorite New Adult series out there. It's got pretty much everything that you could possibly want in a NA Contemporary series. The characters are beautifully written, they have so many lovable quirks, and their stories are just incredibly inspiring and full of so much positive hope. Plus, Marie writes some amazingly positive friendships and healthy relationships, which is definitely a plus in my book.
I feel so lucky to have gotten to beta read two out of three of these books so far, with the second book in this companion series (After The Storm) being my absolute favorite because I ended up identifying with Ella on so many levels. I just don't even have the words to tell just how amazingly talented and awesome Marie is. You'll just have to find out for yourself and I definitely STRONGLY RECOMMEND this series to you and just all of her other books too.
JUST READ THEM!!!!

This book is a standalone companion novel to Waiting for the Storm and After the Storm. The books do not need to be read together or in order, but please note that this synopsis contains mild spoilers for After the Storm.
Sadie Fitzgerald has always been different, and not just because she makes her own clothes and would rather stay home watching Doctor Who than party with kids her age. When it’s time to leave Angel Island for college, Sadie is eager to put her old life behind her. Small-minded people and rumors have plagued her for years, but with the love of her adoptive family, the O’Dells, Sadie has learned to embrace who she is. Now she’s not afraid to admit the rumors about her are true: she’s gay.
For the first time in her life, Sadie feels free to be herself. She dives into college life and begins volunteering at the local LGBT center, where she discovers her small-town upbringing left holes in her education about life outside Angel Island.
The world is a bigger and more accepting place than Sadie ever imagined. She’s finally found where she belongs, but with the reappearance of someone from her past, an unexpected new friendship, and a chance at love, Sadie soon realizes she still has a lot to learn about life, friendship, and love.
