Meet Ellie Marney @ Ashburton Library

We are super excited to be hosting Ellie Marney at Ashburton Library!

Ellie Marney is the creator of the Every series which stars the hottest teen crime fighting duo, Mycroft and Watts (a modern and Melbourne based Sherlock and Watson). The books are full of suspense, drama, near death action and just the right amount of romance.

I am currently half way through the recently released final in the trilogy, Every Move, and things are getting tense. I'm not worried about the bad guys trying to kill them, I'm worried Watts is falling in love with someone else! What are you doing to us Ellie?! Anyway, no spoilers. Go out and grab the series for yourself.

Check out her blog Hick Chick Click and this fantastic post detailing the Every Move Song Playlist.

And if you're a young writer or love young adult fiction,
we would love see you:
Monday 1 June at 7pm
Ashburton Library
154 High St, Ashburton
9278 4666
