Lanie was born and raised in a very small town in MidCoast Maine where she spent countless hours exploring the woods around the farm where she lived, and playing dress up with her grandma’s suede boots. She even had a stubborn pinto pony named Magic. She left small town life after high school graduation, seeking bigger and better things, but quite honestly, the city life was not for her. She yearned for fresh air and space to roam, and she found her way back home fifteen years later, this time with a husband and two young boys in tow. Now she lives in her grandparents old house, on a dirt road, in the same small town she grew up in. It’s poetic, which makes her smile as she sips coffee staring at nothing but trees outside the window. FATES is Lanie’s debut YA novel.
Vampires are everywhere in teen fiction, but recently some authors have ventured outside fangland and explored a more diverse assortment of supernatural beings. And so we have Fates by Lanie Bross, a novel about, well, Fates. I was a little sad when I realized Bross’s Fates didn’t bear much resemblance to the Greek Fates, just because I’m a sucker for classical mythology, but nonetheless I was eager to see what Bross did with the concept. The gorgeous cover art didn’t hurt a bit either.
