![]() Today, I am pleased to welcome author Amanda Cox, whose debut novel, The Edge of Belonging, put her on my new favourite author list! Amanda is a blogger and a curriculum developer for a national nonprofit youth leadership organization, but her first love is communicating through story. She holds a bachelor’s degree in Bible and theology and a master’s degree in professional counseling. Her studies and her interactions with hurting families over a decade have allowed her to create multidimensional characters that connect emotionally with readers. Something I can definitely attest to! The Edge of Belonging is a "must-read." It comes out on September 8th, and to celebrate Amanda's debut, Revell is giving away 4 print copies in the States and one ebook for those outside of the U.S.! Amanda, welcome to Interviews & Reviews! ![]() Today I am pleased to welcome Joiya Morrison-Efemini to I & R. Joiya is a wife, former attorney and current stay-at-home mom of four fantastic kiddos.

In 2017 her first publication, a collection of short stories, The Notes They Played, was released. And, in 2019, her first novel, The Impossible, was published. Today, she is going to talk to us about her latest book Petrified Flowers.
