Hayle Coven Novels

I’m an international, multiple award-winning author with a passion for the voices in my head. As a singer, songwriter, independent filmmaker and improv teacher and performer, my life has always been about creating and sharing what I create with others. Now that my dream to write for a living is a reality, with over a hundred titles in happy publication and no end in sight, I live in beautiful Prince Edward Island, Canada, with my giant cats, pug overlord and overlady and my Gypsy Vanner gelding, Fynn. ***WORLD'S BEST STORY2014*** Her mom's a witch. Her dad's a demon. And she just wants to be ordinary. I batted at the curl of smoke drifting off the tip of my candle and tried not to sneeze. My heavy velvet cloak fell in oppressive, suffocating folds in the closed space of the ceremony chamber, the cowl trapping the annoying bits of puff I missed. I hated the way my eyes burned and teared, an almost constant distraction. Not that I didn't welcome the distraction, to be honest. Anything to take my mind from what went on around me. Being part of a demon raising is way less exciting than it sounds. Sydlynn Hayle's teen life couldn't be more complicated. Trying to please her coven is all a fantasy while the adventure of starting over in a new town and fending off a bully cheerleader who hates her are just the beginning of her troubles. What to do when delicious football hero Brad Peters--boyfriend of her cheer nemesis--shows interest? If only the darkly yummy witch, Quaid Moromond, didn't make it so difficult for her to focus on fitting in with the normal kids despite her paranormal, witchcraft laced home life. Add to that her crazy grandmother's constant escapes driving her family to the brink and Syd's between a rock and a coven site. Forced to take on power she doesn't want to protect a coven who blames her for everything, only she can save her family's magic. If her family's distrust doesn't destroy her first.

I highly recommend 'They Both Die at the End' by Adam Silvera. While the main characters are not explicitly Asian American, Adam Silvera himself is Puerto Rican - Cuban - American, and his writing often touches on themes of identity. It's a powerful story about two boys who find out they are going to die on the same day. It makes you think about life, love, and the human condition.

They provide unique perspectives. Asian - American writers bring their own experiences and viewpoints. They can write about things like the immigrant experience, the feeling of being between two cultures, and the struggle for acceptance in a new land. Take 'Americanah' by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie (though Nigerian - American, it has similar themes of being an immigrant in the US). The characters in these Asian - American novels often face challenges related to race and identity that are specific to their situation.

One of the great Asian American novels is 'The Joy Luck Club' by Amy Tan. It beautifully explores the relationships between Chinese - American mothers and daughters, delving into themes of cultural identity, family secrets, and the immigrant experience. Another is 'Native Speaker' by Chang - Rae Lee, which examines the life of a Korean - American man in New York City, touching on themes like assimilation and the search for self.
