On My Mind Mondays (3) Kendra isn't up in the Tower


 
 
On My Mind Monday with Paranormal Sisters!
 
 Where every Monday we pick a topic and tell you our thoughts on it. It might be weekly or every other week. Haven't decided yet. And if you have a topic you want our thoughts on, post a comment and we might decide to do it.
 
 
Apparently there was an confusion in the air and upon Amazon and Goodreads that the latest book by Alex Flinn, Towering, was a part of the Kendra Chronicles. But the thing is, there isn't much of a series right now for Kendra and Towering is sure not even close to being a part of it. Mrs. Flinn has cleared that up in a post and I just thought I'd help spread the news of it.
Why? Cause I absolutely enjoy Mrs. Flinn's work, well except for one but that's besides the point haha. And I don't want any reviews for Towering to be lowered cause of this mistake. A mistake I am absolutely happy that’s been cleared up cause when I do get to the book I don't want to be disappointed when I don’t see her in there. So thank you Mrs. Flinn for clearing that up. And thank you to Liliana from LiliLostInABook to fixing it on Goodreads!
 
Here’s some quotes from the post:
 
“Unfortunately, Amazon and Goodreads for some reason are stating that Towering is part of a series, The Kendra Chronicles. It isn't. Kendra isn't in the book.”
 
“Anyway, Towering is a fairy tale book, but Kendra is not in it. It's too cold for her up there.”
 
 
If you want to check out the post by the author here it is: Kendra is not in Towering

~Summary~
 
At first, I merely saw his face, his hands on the window ledge. Then, his whole body as he swung himself through the window. Only I could not see what he swung on.
Until, one day, I told my dream self to look down. And it was then that I saw. He had climbed on a rope. I knew without asking that the rope had been one of my own tying.


Rachel is trapped in a tower, held hostage by a woman she’s always called Mama. Her golden hair is growing rapidly, and to pass the time, she watches the snow fall and sings songs from her childhood, hoping someone, anyone, will hear her.

Wyatt needs time to reflect or, better yet, forget about what happened to his best friend, Tyler. That’s why he’s been shipped off to the Adirondacks in the dead of winter to live with the oldest lady in town. Either that, or no one he knows ever wants to see him again.

Dani disappeared seventeen years ago without a trace, but she left behind a journal that’s never been read, not even by her overbearing mother…until now.

A #1 New York Times bestselling author, Alex Flinn knows her fairy tales, and Towering is her most mind-bending interpretation yet. Dark and mysterious, this reimagining of Rapunzel will have readers on the edge of their seats wondering where Alex will take them next!
