Jennifer Brown, author of BREAK US, on the chapters that wrote themselves
We're so excited to have Jennifer Brown stop by and talk to us about her latest novel, BREAK US.Jennifer, what scene was really hard for you to write and why, and is that the one of which you are most proud? Or is there another scene you particularly love?
I particularly love the scene that stretches from chapter 29 all the way through chapter 33. I had fun writing it, but more than that, I had fun watching Nikki take care of business. I felt like those chapters kind of wrote themselves, and they allowed Nikki to show and use everything that she’d learned over the course of this journey.
What book or books would most resonate with readers who love your book--or visa versa?
THE BODY FINDER by Kimberly Derting
ROSEBUSH by Michele Jaffe
THE NATURALS by Jennifer Barnes
What did this book teach you about writing or about yourself?
That I can write fight scenes and kissing scenes, and I enjoy writing both! Who knew?!
ABOUT THE BOOK
Break Usby Jennifer Brown
Hardcover
Katherine Tegen Books
Released 2/13/2018
Nikki Kill doesn’t see the world in black and white. Her synesthesia shades everything in view, transforming numbers, words, and emotions into colorful clues. Which means she’s a dangerous commodity to anyone with something to hide.
Nikki has already taken on the Hollises—one of L.A.’s most powerful families—for murdering her half sister, Peyton. However, Nikki’s next steps are clouded by the gray of uncertainty. Before she knows it, Nikki is on the trail of a cold case that couldn’t be any more personal—the death of her mother.
But when the web of lies and secrets she uncovers leads back to the people who have tried to silence her, Nikki must pursue the sunbeam gold of justice, or everything—including her life—will be lost.
