◊ The Waterfall Traveler
◊ by S.J. Lem
◊ Publication date: April 19, 2017
◊ Genres: Fantasy, Young Adult

All eighteen-year-old Ri wants is to cure her adoptive father Samuel from his hallucination-inducing illness. Everyone in her village tells her it’s impossible. But when she meets two newcomers in the forest—a gruff rogue with a vendetta against the gods and a charming fugitive who saves her life—she’ll be torn away from Samuel and swept across the sea to an oppressive city governed by a ruthless tyrant. Once there, she’ll not only have to confront Samuel’s unlawful past, but a vicious evil that threatens all mankind.

In this tale of bravery, friendship, and unforeseen love, Ri risks it all to save those she cares for. But if she prevails, she’ll find the one thing she yearns for most—a cure for Samuel.

THE WATERFALL TRAVELER is available at the following sites:

Goodreads / Amazon / Barnes & Noble

Top Ten List: What ten books would eightteen-year-old Ri have on her bookcase to read?

In my novel, The Waterfall Traveler, Ri is unable to read. Her adoptive father is the only person she knows who is capable of reading, and he never taught her how in order to protect her (if I share his reasons why, I’d give away spoilers). However, if she could read (and she will learn), I think she’d enjoy the below books.

1.      How to Stay Alive in the Woods (Since she is practical, she would own a guide to know how to survive in her environment.)

2.     The Harry Potter Series (I hope I can list a whole series as one choice)

3.     A Wizard of Earthsea

4.    An Ember in the Ashes

5.     Howl’s Moving Castle

6.    The Infernal Devices series

7.     Graceling

8.    Daughter of Smoke and Bone

9.    Six of Crows

10.                        Throne of Glass series

Thank you so much for this fun topic and for featuring me on your blog.
