Would You Rather with Amy Scheibe

Chips, chocolate or cheese? 

Chocolate. It’s the most important meal of the day.

Bridget Jones, Becky Bloomwood or Carrie Bradshaw? 

Bridget Jones. I’m quite comfortable being a mess in granny panties, for certain.

Wine, beer or vodka? 

Vodka, with a smidge of olive.

Camping or spa vacation? 

Spa vacation. I grew up in a trailer house. That’s enough camping for a lifetime.

Water or mountains? 

Mountains. I like being cool in the summer, and snow in the winter.

Zombies or vampires? 

Vampires. Show me one Zombie that knows how to dress, and I’ll show you 100 Vampires who wore it better.

Dogs or cats? 

Cats. The poop is smaller.

Coke or Pepsi? 

Pepsi. I like a multi-billion dollar underdog.

Coffee or tea? 

Coffee. In Italy. Venice, if possible.

Dine out or take away? 

Dine out. Less waste.

High heels, sneakers or flip flops? 

Sneakers. Best for running away from Zombies.

Physical Book or ebook? 

Physical book, so I know where the heck I am in a story.

Paperback or Hardcover? 

Hardcover. Stays open better when I knit while reading.

Pen or pencil? 

Pen. Pencils are like nails on chalkboard or tin on fillings.

Mad Men, Downton Abbey or Breaking Bad? 

Mad Men, the early years. I heart the 50s.

Drama or comedy? 

Comedy. I like a good laugh.

Twilight or Hunger Games? 

Hunger Games. I prefer my heroines tough out the gate.

Lipstick, lipgloss or chapstick? 

Lipgloss. Chocolate doesn’t melt or stick.

Facebook or Twitter? 

Facebook is where I live, Twitter is where I breathe.

Plot your entire novel or fly by the seat of your pants? 

Pretty sure I do a combo of both. Whatever is the most soul-destroying

 A Fireproof Home For The Bride

This coming-of-age story set in the 1950s introduces Emmy Nelson as she gets swept up in a family secret while attempting to step outside of her parents’ world and strike out on her own. These characters and their struggles hit close to home, particularly the racial, gender, and religious prejudices that Emmy fights so hard to escape. She’s the type of character you cheer for – wholeheartedly.

But A FIREPROOF HOME FOR THE BRIDE also has the charm of detail that will drop readers into its time and place: the home economics class lecture on cuts of meat, the group date to the diner, the small-town movie theater popcorn for a penny. It also has a love story—the wrong love giving way to the right—and most of all the pull of a great main character whose self-discovery sweeps the plot forward.
