Everything You
Know
Release Date:

Summary from
Goodreads:
A dark
forest, a screaming woman and blood. These are the images that haunt seventeen year old
Emma from the moment she meets Joe Castlellaw. And so much more awaits.
Emma Mathews never believed she was like everyone else, but neither did she think
herself crazy. Meeting Joe Castlellaw, Henry Dearborn High’s newest student, was like
waking on a cold rock in a strange place, the world bathed in liquid moonlight. Everything
is different now…and fraught. Visions of a dark forest, a screaming woman and blood
have begun to haunt Emma’s dreams, and not only at night. But Joe’s lonely beauty makes
her float on air, and she would follow him anywhere—out of high school and through the
great tree, to a world of poetry and political savagery, of magic and murder, to a life that is
entirely theirs and yet unlike anything they have ever known.
Excerpt :
The sound came again, the gentle hum Emma heard before the man left. It went on lightly,
like background music in a store. Inside the hum, so faintly she wasn’t sure if she heard it,
a human-seeming voice occasionally whispered. The rasping, musical sound belonged to
neither the white-haired man nor his distant counterpart. Emma listened closely to see if
she could hear what the voice said. She couldn’t, but as soon as she forgot about it the voice
was clear again, like those books where you can only see the secret picture when you squish
your eyes and half-stare at the page.
The airy language sounded like disconnected lines of poetry or spoken songs, or bits of
speeches and unconnected conversations: questions and answers that didn’t originally
form a single idea.
Surrender.
More than a
little obsessed with Keats and MOBY DICK and fueled by loud music and cold grey days,
Mary Beth Bass is the author of young adult fantasy and romantic women’s fiction. Her
debut paranormal-women’s fiction hybrid, FOLLOW ME received the Book Buyers Best
Award for Time Travel, Fantasy, and Paranormal Romance.
An
occasional travel writer, Mary Beth has written about Paris, Bordeaux, and Yorkshire,
where she hiked the moors to the legendary setting for WUTHERING HEIGHTS and
stood breathless in the parsonage room where Charlotte, Anne, and Emily Bronte talked
out their stories with each other.
And if I seem a little strange, well that’s
because I am.
Also loves octopuses.
