Love Bug Bites

Tired of teen fiction that's all sunshine and rainbows? "Love Bug Bites" serves up a coming-of-age story with a healthy dose of real life (think mean girls, confusing crushes, and unanswered questions about life, the universe, and everything). In this first of a series, join the girl, the sassy Old Woman, and her fierce Mama as they navigate the messy rollercoaster of tween and teen years in a quirky Gulf Coast town. This page-turner tackles everything from anti-bullying battles to the challenges of caring for a loved one with Alzheimer's, all while packing in enough humor and heart to make you laugh, cry, and maybe even dissect a poem or two (because let's be honest, dissecting metaphors is cooler than dissecting frogs, right?). 

Bonus: Each chapter comes with discussion prompts, perfect for bonding with family and friends (because sometimes, the best adventures are shared). So ditch the textbooks, grab your beach towel, and dive into Love Bugs Bite – the year round escape that bites back in the best way possible!
