Middle Grade Monday| Blog Tour | Guest Post: Jessica Day George

Middle Grade Monday is a feature started right here at Reading Nook. It's a way to share news or reviews of middle grade novels on a blog that doesn't exclusively post middle grade content. Feel free to join any time and link up. 

Today I have the lovely Jessica Day George here to answer a couple of questions in honor of her recent release Wednesdays in the Tower

1. What's your favorite story that features a castle? 
Howl’s Moving Castle by Diana Wynne Jones 

2. You write fantasy novels, do you have some other genre stories sitting around your house unfinished? Or are you strictly fantasy?
I have two Regency romance novels on my hard drive that I will one day publish! 

3.What are some differences between writing middle grade and young adult? 
In middle grade I feel less pressure to include a romantic subplot. I also tend to have more action-driven plots in my middle grade, and more character-driven in my YA books. 

4. What is a book you've read recently that you can't stop recommending? 
Where’d You Go, Bernadette? By Maria Semple. A lovely, well, dramedy that’s for adults, but I totally recommend to teens as well. 

5. Describe the Castle Glower series in 5 words. 
Magic castle loves its princess.


Jessica Day George is the author of many novels including the Princess series, Dragon Slippers series and of course the Castle Glower series.
