Books by Camille DeAngelis
My fantasy novels are set in the ordinary world. It's important to me to write something fresh and different each time, so the labels on my work range from science fiction to paranormal romance to gothic and horror. When people ask why I write fantasy, I tell them it's because I get enough real life in real life! My first short story, "The Coroner's Bride," is now available as an ebook from iTunes, Barnes & Noble, Kobo, Scribd, and Amazon. I've also published two nonfiction books on creativity, and those links are below.
The Boy From Tomorrow: a novel for children
Josie and Alec both live at 444 Sparrow Street. They sleep in the same room, but they’ve never laid eyes on each other. They are twelve years old but a hundred years apart. The children meet through a handpainted spirit board—Josie in 1915, Alec in 2015—and form a friendship across the century that separates them. Learn More
Immaculate Heart: A Novel
Ballymorris is a pass-on-through sort of place, even for those residents who've only ever talked about leaving. But when a young American journalist pulls into town for his uncle's funeral, he finds plenty to spark his curiosity. Three girls from Ballymorris saw an apparition of the Virgin Mary, a series of visions lasting for months—but not all of them consider it a blessing. Learn More
Bones & All: A Novel
On the surface, Maren Yearly seems like an ordinary sixteen-year-old girl: bookish and shy, with a predilection for head-to-toe black.

Maren wears black so the blood won’t show. Learn More
