The Best Nicholas Sparks Books, According to the NewInBooks Team:
The Twilight series is one of the most wildly popular (and polarizing) book series in recent history. Its influence is so large that the 50 shades books - originally written as Twilight fanfiction - became wild bestsellsers in their own right. This week marks 10 years of Twilight (can you believe it??). To celebrate, Stephenie Meyer released a 10th Anniversary Edition of the first Twilight novel this week. This new edition features exclusive new bonus content for readers who can't get enough of Edward and Bella.

Tell us a little bit about your new release, THE BLUE.
With a spin of a globe, Lana and Kitty escape their lives in England and journey to the Philippines. There they discover The Blue – a beautiful yacht manned by a group of wanderers. When they’re invited to join the crew they slip into an idyllic routine of sailing and snorkelling around the isolated islands of the Philippines, embracing a way of life that makes it easy to forget the secrets they left behind.
But the tide turns when death creeps quietly on deck. A dangerous swell of mistrust and lies threatens to bring the crew’s adventures to an end – but some won’t let paradise go . . . whatever the price.

What's on your writing desk? (We hear that your writing desk is sometimes a beach hut. We're jealous.)
Yes, I work in a beach hut on the south coast of England. The wooden hut is just twenty paces from the shore, which makes it my favourite place to write. My writing desk is always clear – all I have on it is a worn and tired Mulberry journal and a pencil. I always write my first draft of a new novel by hand.

Step outside of your comfort zone – it’s where all the fun stuff happens.
What's on your bookshelves?
My book shelf actually spills over onto three different bookcases in our house, but the one I've photographed is the bookcase next to my desk. The top shelf is a display of different editions of my books; the second shelf is crammed with my favourite books; and the third shelf is full of journals, travel guides and maps.
