Pizza Party with Faith Harkey and "Genuine Sweet"

Middle Grade author Faith Harkey has lived in many small towns and once spent a year traveling the country in an RV, writing on a solar-panel-powered computer. She recently moved to Tallahassee. Genuine Sweet is her first book, and features Genuine Sweet – “a small-town girl with big-time magic and an even bigger heart.”

From Publisher’s Review:

Twelve-year-old Genuine Sweet, of tiny Sass, Georgia, can grant any wish . . . except her own. It’s a peculiar predicament, considering how much she could use a few wishes. New friends help Genuine give her family a boost–and then she takes her gift global! Life finally seems to be on the mend. But when she’s faced with unexpected trouble that no amount of wishing can fix, Genuine must puzzle out the difference between wishing for a better life and building one.

Booklist says, “”Harkey has created a lively cast of appealing characters, but Genuine’s sweet and generous heart is the star of the story.”

Join us for a middle grade readers Pizza Party and meet Faith Harkey and 12 year old Genuine Sweet!
