Lost Girls
by Merrie Destefano
Publication Date: January 3, 2017
Publisher: Entangled Teen
Fight Club meets Black Swan—Rachel wakes up in a ditch to find she doesn’t remember the last year of her life, and that everything—including herself—is vastly different than she remembers.
Yesterday, Rachel went to sleep listening to Taylor Swift, curled up in her grammy’s quilt, worrying about geometry. Today, she woke up in a ditch, bloodied, bruised, and missing a year of her life.
She doesn’t recognize the person she’s become: she’s popular. She wears nothing but black.
Black to cover the blood.
And she can fight.
Tell no one.
She’s not the only girl to go missing within the last year…but she’s the only girl to come back. She desperately wants to unravel what happened to her, to try and recover the rest of the Lost Girls.
But the more she discovers, the more her memories return. And as much as her new life scares her, it calls to her. Seductively. The good girl gone bad, sex, drugs, and raves, and something darker…something she still craves—the rush of the fight, the thrill of the win—something she can’t resist, that might still get her killed…
The only rule is: There are no rules.

My Top Ten Favorite Movies
by Merrie Destefano
I love movies as much as I love books--probably because I am completely addicted to storytelling and because the art form of movies combines story, drama and music. So, for me it's Win/Win/Win. I must confess I struggled between the definition of which movies I thought were the best movies I’ve ever seen and which ones were my favorites. In the end, I decided to post my favorites, which meant I love to watch these and could watch them at least once or twice a year, without ever getting tired of them. Here are my top ten favorites as of today, but not necessarily in this order...
1. The Time Machine
2. It's a Wonderful Life
3. American Dreamer
4. The Man With One Red Shoe
5. Raiders of the Lost Ark
6. Romancing the Stone
7. Enemy Mine
8. Memento
9. Blade Runner
10. Star Wars
