Signs Point to Yes by Sandy Hall

YA Romance
Expected Publication: 20th October 2015 by Swoon Romance

The author of A Little Something Different brings you the most adorkable romance ever.

Jane, a superstitious fangirl, takes an anonymous babysitting job to avoid an unpaid internship with her college-obsessed mom. The only problem? She’s babysitting the siblings of her childhood friend and new crush, Teo.

Teo doesn’t dislike Jane, but his best friend Ravi hates her, and is determined to keep them apart. So Teo’s pretty sure his plans for a peaceful summer are shot. His only hope is that his intermittent search for his birth father will finally pan out and he’ll find a new, less awkward home. Meanwhile, at Jane’s house, her sister Margo wants to come out as bisexual, but she’s terrified of how her parents will react.

In a summer filled with secrets and questions, even Jane’s Magic 8 ball can’t give them clear answers, but Signs Point to Yes.

Interview with Sandy Hall

What is Signs Point to Yes about, in your own words?

Superstitious fangirl Jane is bored and lonely and lacks drive until she gets a job babysitting for some kids in her neighborhood. Those kids, three little girls, just happen to have a nerdy hot lifeguard for an old brother. Cue the biggest crush of Jane’s life, a semi-awkward summer, and a completely non-epic but still fun roadtrip.


How did you come up with idea for Signs Point to Yes?

All I really wanted was to write a summer romance book about a girl who falls for her neighbor. I just kept throwing things at it to see what would stick! It went through a lot of different drafts but I love how it turned out.


Do you have a favourite character from the book?

I love Jane. I really wanted to explore a character that didn’t know what she wanted from life. Jane loves reading and writing fanfiction but she has zero interest in school and doesn’t want to go to college. It’s the summer before her senior year of high school and her parents are getting on her case about making choices about her future. But Jane isn’t interested.


What's your favourite part about writing/being an author?

I’m a lifelong book lover and I’ve worked in libraries since I was 16, more than half my life at this point, so my number one favorite thing about being an author is getting to meet authors I admire. Authors have always been like rock stars to me so now that I get to be around them and meet them professionally, it’s just living the dream.


What do you like to do when you're not writing?

Read, marathon TV shows, shop. I’ve been really into Broadway shows lately too, trying to see as many as I can. I just bought tickets to Hamilton so I’m super excited about that. I don’t get to see it until February next year, but still can’t wait.


Are you currently working on anything?

I’m always working on something! Even if “working” just means mulling ideas over about plots or characters. I spent the summer working on a new book, but it’s nothing official yet. And October is always a planning month for me with National Novel Writing Month in November. So always lots to do!


Any parting words of advice?

Inspiration can come from anywhere at anytime. I often forget this when I feel writer’s block coming on or when I’m having trouble with a plot. When something isn’t working, it’s time to get up and get away from it for a little while, to do something different and shake up the routine.
