Meet Dana Newcomb author of The Rebecca Chronicles Series, on Sunday, August 16th at 6:30pm!

 About Dana, from Dana’s website

I live in a small beach town on the eastern shore of Maryland. I've just published my fourth book, My Ridiculously Awesome End of 7th Grade. It is the continuation of my third book, My Incredibly Awkward Adventures from Locker 73, and my second book, My Surprisingly Not-So-Simple Summer, and my first book, My Crazy Cringeworthy Countdown to Summer in, The Rebecca Chronicles series. It is intended for girls ages 10-14 and was written as a result of a journal I started when I, myself, was twelve. Since then, I've been encouraged by many to pursue my dream as a writer. 

Before entering the second half of seventh grade, Rebecca Sherman agrees to go on a ski trip with Libby, her new BFF, but ignores one critical detail—she doesn’t ski!

During the semester, she finds herself dealing with multiple blunders: unintended screen sharing, a kiss she didn’t expect, a party involving the police, and the ongoing challenge with mean girls, including her former BFF, Melanie. Her two crushes, AJ and Finn, also keep her spinning as she tries to decide who she likes more, all the while knowing her parents won’t let her date. Managing these pressures bring on bouts of anxiety she is scared to share with anyone.

Welcome distractions include the remodel of the restaurant her parents buy, an uplifting experience with a friend on a field trip, and the invention of Project Pebble, a club Becca creates to protect against mean girls.

Through good days and bad days, Becca prays she will make it through the end of seventh grade without making a complete fool of herself. Fingers crossed!
