Title: THE MONSTER HYPOTHESIS
Author: Romily Bernard
Pub. Date: December 10, 2019
Publisher: Disney-Hyperion
Pages: 304
Formats: Hardcover, eBook
Welcome to Bohring-home to 453 people, 2,053
alligators, and one monster curse.
Correction: home to 454 people, now that Kick
Winter is living in the swamp Hollows with her Grandma Missouri, the town
(fake) psychic. Bohring is anything but boring for Kick who has already blown a
hole through the kitchen floor, befriended a chicken-eating gator, and discovered
that the town's hundred-year curse is upon them.
It's the Bohring curse and all the kids are
about to become monsters-or so the legend goes. People are worried-except for
Kick. She knows there's a scientific explanation for everything, especially curses
and monsters. But Kick is the new kid in school and she's determined to make a
name for herself . . . by pretending to be psychic.
According to her calculations: one teeny-tiny
life + (fake) psychic skills = popularity. But when kids start disappearing and
glowing creatures start showing up, Kick's theory quickly evaporates in a puff
of foul-smelling swamp gas. Can Kick use her (real) science smarts to prove the
curse is a hoax? Or is it just-maybe-sort of-somehow possible the curse is
here?
Author Romily Bernard weaves a fast-paced
middle-grade mystery filled with humor and scientific intrigue, set in a
perfectly eerie Southern town.
Romily Bernard graduated from Georgia State University with
a literature degree. Since then, she's worked as a riding instructor,
cell-phone salesperson, personal assistant, horse groomer and exercise rider,
accounting assistant, and, during a very dark time, customer service
representative. . . . She's also, of course, now a YA novelist.
So don't let anyone tell you a BA degree will keep you
unemployed.
Romily currently lives in Atlanta, Georgia, and Find Me is
her debut novel. It placed first in the 2011 YA Unpublished Maggie Awards
(given by Georgia Romance Writers) and won the Golden Heart Award for YA
Romance from the Romance Writers of America in 2012.
