DAY 6 A Guided Tour of The Strange World of BREAKING GLASS
KABBALAH
Jeremy Glass’ love interest, Susannah Durbin has an
obsession with occult and a particular interest in a form of Jewish mysticism
called Kabbalah. Jeremy, desperate to
unlock her mysteries and being the research nerd he is does some digging into
this fascinating body of knowledge. If you want to learn a bit yourself, check this out.
Apparently there is quite an abundance of old
carousels in New England, a fact Jeremy would find curious and fascinating:
Even though they hearken back to a time gone by, the hand carved antique carousels from the 19th and early 20th century still bring great joy to those who ride them in the 21st century. While they are not high-tech wonders, there is something addicting about trying to get the brass ring that will keep you coming back again and again.
There are 18 operating antique carousels in New England dating from 1876 to the 1940s. The two oldest operating carousels in New England also happen to be the oldest operating carousels in the United States. Here is a list of New England’s antique carousels:
- 1876 - Flying Horses Carousel, Oak Bluffs, Martha’s Vineyard, Massachusetts
- 1876 - Flying Horse Carousel, Watch Hill, Westerly, Rhode Island
- 1893 - Lake Compounce Carousel, Bristol, Connecticut
- 1894 - Willowbrook Village Carousel, Newfield, Maine
- 1894 - Loof Carousel, Slater Park, Pawtucket, Rhode Island
- 1895 - Crescent Park Loof Carousel, East Providence, Rhode Island
- 1898 - Canobie Lake Park Carousel, Salem, New Hampshire
- 1900 - Storyland Carousel, Glen, New Hampshire
- 1909 - Six Flags New England Carousel, Agawam, Massachusetts
- 1911 - Heritage Museums & Gardens Carousel, Sandwich, Massachusetts
- 1916 - Lighthouse Point Park Carousel, New Haven, Connecticut
- 1914 - Bushnell Park Carousel, Hartford, Connecticut
- 1915 - Atlantic Beach Park Carousel, Misquamicut, Rhode Island
- 1919 - Papoose Pond Resort Carousel, Waterford, Maine
- 1920 - Fall River Carousel, Battleship Cove, Fall River, Massachusetts

BREAKING GLASS from Spencer Hill Press, July 2013
by Lisa Amowitz
On the night
seventeen-year-old Jeremy Glass winds up in the hospital with a broken leg and
a blood alcohol level well above the legal limit, his secret crush, Susannah,
disappears. When he begins receiving messages from her from beyond the grave,
he’s not sure whether they’re real or if he’s losing his grip on reality. Clue
by clue, he gets closer to unraveling the mystery, and soon realizes he must
discover the truth or become the next victim himself.

Seventeen-year-old Raine Cooper has enough on her plate
dealing with her father's disappearance, her mother's erratic behavior and the
possibility of her boyfriend relocating. The last thing she needs is Torin St.
James, a mysterious new neighbor with a wicked smile and uncanny way of reading
her.
Raine is drawn to
Torin's dark sexiness against her better judgment, until he saves her life with
weird marks and she realizes he is different. But by healing her, Torin changes
something inside Raine. Now she can't stop thinking about him. Half the time,
she's not sure whether to fall into his arms or run.
Scared, she sets
out to find out what Torin is. But the closer she gets to the truth the more
she uncovers something sinister about Torin. What Torin is goes back to an
ancient mythology and Raine is somehow part of it. Not only are she and her
friends in danger, she must choose a side, but the wrong choice will cost Raine
her life.

Cover reveal for Spence City's 400 Lb Gorilla; another cover design from me...
Matt Danmor thinks he’s lucky. Not many people survive a near death accident with nothing more than a bout of amnesia, a touch of clumsiness and the conviction that the technician who did the MRI had grey skin and hooves. Still, it takes time to recover from trauma like that, especially when the girl who was in the accident with you disappears into thin air. Especially when the shrinks keep telling you she’s just a figment of your imagination
.
So when the girl turns up months later looking ravishing, and wanting to carry
on where they left off, Matt’s troubled life starts looking up. But he hasn’t
bargained for the baggage that comes with Silvy, like the fact she isn’t really
an English language student, or even a girl.
Underneath her traffic stopping exterior is something else altogether, something involving raving fanatics bent on human sacrifice, dimensionally challenged baked bean tins, a vulture with a penchant for profanity, and a security agent for the Dept of Fimmigration (that’s Fae immigration for those of you not in the know) called Kylah with the most amazing gold-flecked eyes…
The 400 Lb Gorilla is caustic, (vampire-free) introduction to the Hipposync
