Scarlett Fever
|
|
 |
 |
 |
Scarlett is back . . .
|
| . . . in this sequel to Suite Scarlett. School’s in session. Mrs. Amberson has moved just down the street and opened the Amy Amberson Agency (AAA, frequently called by stranded motorists). She’s taken Scarlett on as her official assistant. Marlene has had a personality transplant, Spencer accidentally becomes public enemy #1, and there is definitely something wrong with Lola. And Eric? Oh, he’s still around too. |
|
That would really be enough.
|
| Unfortunately, two new figures have entered Scarlett’s life: 15 year-old Broadway star Chelsea Biggs and her brother Max. What could possibly be more life-affirming and ego-boosting than to work with someone your own age who has a thriving stage career? Especially when said person has a brother who has nothing better to do than make you miserable every single day? Absolutely nothing. It’s a dream life. |
|
The summer was nothing.
|
| This is when it gets real. The drama has spread over all of New York City. Gossip pages, boys standing in trashcans, an ill-fated cake, murder on the steps of the courthouse, flying doughnuts, violence in the Biology lab, Broadway politics, topiary abuse, a dog named Murray who tinkles when he sees hats . . . and then comes one event will change the Martin family forever. *thunderclap* |

Feverish Reviews:
|
|
| “Charming, smart, and laugh-out-loud funny, Scarlett Fever is the kind of book you give to your best friend and say, ‘Please hurry up and read this, so we can talk about it.’”
- Heather Cocks and Jessica Morgan a.k.a. The Fug Girls |
|
| “The sequel measures well above its predecessor . . . . the characterizations are a dream.” - Kirkus Reviews |
|
| “Johnson skillfully balances the camp with warm family drama. In immediate, deadpan, to-the-point prose, she takes aim at the dark side of show business while continuing to develop the larger-than-life characters that are the heart of this series.” - Horn Book |
|
| “Readers of SUITE SCARLETT will be absolutely delighted with this second installment. If you have not read the first book, you can still enjoy every minute of the sequel. SCARLETT FEVER gets a big four stars.” -Teenreads.com |
|
| “Very, very rarely, I read a book that makes me want to live somewhere other than Maine. Even less often, I read a book that makes me want to live somewhere urban. This series falls into both categories — the trials and tribulations of Scarlett Martin make me daydream about living in New York City. Thumbs up, yet again, for Maureen Johnson. - Bookshelves of Doom |
