Fictional Reality: Entertaining Angels

Entertaining Angels

By: Emerald Barnes

Genre: Young Adult
Released: June 24th, 2014

Madison Andrews can't face her reflection in the mirror. All she sees is a big, fat nobody. Yet, deep inside she longs for something more, something that's not skin deep.

Along comes Zach, the new guy in school. He's smoking hot and totally out of her league. She somehow catches his eye, and he makes her feel beautiful for once. But just as she gets close to Zach, her nerdy best friend, Chase, won't let Madison doubt her true beauty, no matter how many meals she skips.

Even as Madison begins to realize that she is more than she thinks, darker forces are at work, darker than the lies and mocking from her peers, stopping her from amounting to her full potential. Can Madison find true happiness in her own skin?

Music isn’t really an integral part of each novel that I write. Really, I don’t listen to music a lot, but there was something about Entertaining Angels that really needed music. I think that it was such an emotional novel that I needed some kind of outlet, and the music helped me focus. But, true to most soundtracks, each song was handpicked to fit the story. So, if you can imagine by now, the songs are mostly Christian in nature, and they speak to people who have a hard time fitting in.

Here are the songs, in no particular order:

Overcomer – Mandisa
Beautiful Things – Gungor
Drifting – Plumb
Angel by your Side – Francesca Battistelli
Beautiful, Beautiful – Francesca Battistelli
Come to Me – Jamie Grace
Love Does – Brandon Heath
Beautiful – MercyMe
You Love Me Anyway – Sidewalk Prophets
Save My Life – Big Daddy Weave
I Am Beautiful – Candice Glover
Strangely Dim – Francesca Battistelli
What Love Really Means – JJ Heller
Nazarite Cry – Eddie James
Need You Now – Plumb
Never Gone – Colton Dixon
Stronger – Mandisa

Temporary Fill – Mandisa
