Image: two girls in 1920s style clothing, one tall and one short.
The girl on the right, who has a messy carroty bob and a lanky figure, is Jo; the suave curvy Filipina girl on the left, wearing a dazzling dark blue gown, is the one and only Tommie.
“If you like YA fiction but find it too heteronormative or repetitive, give Make Much of Me a try. It’s heartfelt and real and ultimately uplifting and sweet, about overcoming abuse and disenfranchisement and finding something wonderful at the journey’s end - and within oneself." - RoAnna Sylver, author of Chameleon Moon
Tommie- short for Thomasina, but she’s small and funny, so Tommie suits her just right- is a powerhouse alto, an ultra-talented dancer, and constantly cracking terrible puns. Her celebrity crushes are Clark Gable and Clara Bow, but not always in that order. If only she could make sure that her friends will never find out that she’s on scholarship, her life would be perfect!
Everything in New York is so expensive, and everyone is so pretty that Tommie kind of wants to scream. But whatever goes wrong, she’ll deal with it the way she knows best: a beaming smile and a groan-worthy joke.
If you want to learn about all the fun that Tommie and her friends have, and all the trouble and danger they get into, check out my new book, Make Much Of Me! It just came out today and it’s only $2.99!
