Day AfterThe 19th Year Book 2By Emi GayleRelease Date: May 6, 2013Demon crypts. Vampire lairs. Glowing angels. Sexy sirens. The stuff of fiction.Or so Winn Thomas always thought.Since being accepted into the fold of the supernatural, he knows better. None of what he imagined is true, but everything he feared is, and binding himself to his Changeling girlfriend until her nineteenth birthday will give him an education far beyond what he’d get at his human high school.Luckily, Winn’s not giving up, he won’t back down, and he definitely isn’t going to run away with his tail between his legs. After all, only werewolves have tails. Right?In this, the second of the 19th Year trilogy, Winn’s facing the challenge of one lifetime. If he doesn’t learn the truth about mythological creatures, his girlfriend Mac Thorne won’t either. That means, in six months, when she chooses her final form, she won’t know what to pick.Winn, though, has his own ideas about Mac’s final selection—plans she knows nothing of.He intends to have her pick human.Whether she can or not.

You're all in a group of evil, aren't you? Run by the devil. All you authors that leave us poor, innocent readers with CLIFFHANGERS for a year... It's cruel you know. All of you. *glare*
Now that I have yelled at the authors, hello, fellow readers, how are you today? I would like to tell you all of this book here, Day After, the second book of Emi Gayle's The 19th Year Series. This story is awesome. As I'm sure you can tell from my little tyrant and from the summary (who doesn't want to read that, honestly?).
Unfortunately for you all, seeing how this is book 2, I can't really go all fangirly crazy, as I don't want to give anything away. Because Gayle is very good at keeping her readers on their toes and holding their breath and screaming in public, if I were to say, "This happens in the end" you would all hate me and you know it, right? Right. *sigh* Now I get to stew in a corner all alone...
Anyhow. THIS BOOK IS AWESOME. AWE. SOME. That is all. :P
My Rating:
And now, my interview with Emi Gayle herself! <3
*Can you tell us a bit about yourself?
Well ... here’s my bio and it’s all true!
Emi Gayle just wants to be young again. She lives vicariously through her youthful characters, while simultaneously acting as chief-Mom to her teenaged son and searching for a way to keep her two daughters from ever reaching the dreaded teen years.
Ironically, those years were some of Emi's favorite times. She met the man of her dreams at 14, was engaged to him at 19, married him at 20 and she's still in love with him to this day. She'll never forget what it was like to fall in love at such a young age — emotions she wants everyone to feel.
*What inspired you to write The 19th Year?
The entire trilogy just came to me one day. I was sitting there and I thought, “what if, at 18 years old (19 really) a girl had to pick what she’d be for the rest of her life. Literally. The rest. End of story, no take backs, no changies. One job. Forever. And of course, I had to make it paranormal because in real life, we aren’t stuck like that!
*Do you have a character you like writing more so than others? If so, why?
I LOVE writing Suze. He’s my comedic break, so when I’m being all serious and Mac and Winn are stressing me out, I write Suze.
*If you could spend one day with any literary character ever written, who would you choose and why?
I want to meet Ethan Holloway from the Holloway Pack stories by J.A. Belfield. I’ll let you figure out why. His story is coming up in Caged!
*Do you listen to music while you work, or do you prefer to write in silence?
I work wherever and with whatever’s around me. I can write much faster in silence, but I can write with the tv blaring, kids fighting, etc.
*Mel and I have a weakness for good quality cheesecake- Is there a desert you just can't say no to?
Molten Lava fudge cake from Chilis. O.M.G.
*What's next for you?
Well, I’ve finised the first book in a series that’s dystopian, set in 2132 and totally different than my normal paranormal because it’s contemprary and it’s for the New Adult market vs. the YA as the character is 18, but in 2132, 18 year old become adults.
