Hey everyone! I’m excited to share with you the book trailer for The Book of Ivy by Amy Engel (Entangled Teen, November 11, 2014). First, here’s the cover and synopsis:
After a brutal nuclear war, the United States was left decimated. A small group of survivors eventually banded together, but only after more conflict over which family would govern the new nation. The Westfalls lost. Fifty years later, peace and control are maintained by marrying the daughters of the losing side to the sons of the winning group in a yearly ritual.
This year, it is my turn.
My name is Ivy Westfall, and my mission is simple: to kill the president’s son—my soon-to-be husband—and return the Westfall family to power.
But Bishop Lattimer is either a very skilled actor or he’s not the cruel, heartless boy my family warned me to expect. He might even be the one person in this world who truly understands me. But there is no escape from my fate. I am the only one who can restore the Westfall legacy.
Because Bishop must die. And I must be the one to kill him…

Amy Engel was born in Kansas and after a childhood spent bouncing between countries (Iran, Taiwan) and states (Kansas, California, Missouri, Washington, D.C.), she settled in Kansas City, Missouri where she lives with her husband and two kids. Before devoting herself full time to motherhood and writing, she was a criminal defense attorney, which is not quite as exciting as it looks on TV. When she has a free moment, she can usually be found reading, running, or shoe shopping.

I love book trailers and this is a good one. I’m typically looking at ones for picture books though :) In fact, just so you can see (since you probably never see these types), here are a couple of great ones :) Remove the spaces from the links, of course :)
This is for SAM & DAVE DIG A HOLE by Jon Klassen (illustrator in blue hat) and Mac Barnett (author in red hat). I love Jon’s smile when he dumps the dirt on Mac’s head :D Just LOVE this trailer:

and this is the one for QUEST by Aaron Becker, the author/illustrator who made this trailer himself. Just gorgeous!…
