Interests
General
I am a cat fanatic; my obsession with my "first child," Cecil, borders on unnatural -- especially since I suspect I'm allergic to him. (I won't get the test; some things are better left unknown.) I love to cook; hate to clean. I've always spent hours staring into space, but now that I'm a professional writer, I can call that "working."Music
Movies
I love quirkly comedies. All time favorite: "Hear My Song." Seriously: it is the best movie you've never seen. I also loved "Simply Ballroom, " which is kind of like "Dirty Dancing" on LSD; "Billy Elliot"; "The Commitments." Movies that the critics loved and I hated: "The English Patient"; "The Bridges of Madison County." I hated the books, too.Television
I held off on TiVo for a long time because I was afraid I'd watch too much TV. I was right. My lineup: "Entourage"; "Project Runway"; "The Office"; "Medium"; "The Daily Show, " and the inevitable "American Idol." I also love "The Real Housewives of Orange County, " but I hate myself for loving it. But, hey -- ya gotta keep up with the neighbors.Books
I read far too much; just ask my eye doctor. Some recent favorites: The Book Thief by Markus Zusak; Good Enough by Paula Yoo; Little Children by Tom Perrotta; A Spot of Bother by Mark Haddon; and The Next Thing on My List by Jill Smolinski.

About me:
I write fun, fast-paced novels for teens and adults. Hope you'll check out my website, www.carolsnow.com.
FICTION FOR ADULTS (from Berkley/Penguin):
JUST LIKE ME, ONLY BETTER: "An immensely fun read that skewers the celebrity lifestyle with wit and humor that makes Snow an author to watch." -- Booklist
HERE TODAY, GONE TO MAUI: When risk-averse human resources professional Jane Shea sets off on a tropical vacation with her hunky boyfriend, Jimmy James, she worries about missing her flight. She worries about losing her luggage. It never even occurs to her that she might misplace Jimmy.
BEEN THERE, DONE THAT: Kathy Hopkins, a young-looking 32-year-old reporter goes undercover at a small New England college to investigate a prostitution ring. Publishers Weekly called the book a “humorous, wise debut.” Even cooler, the book is referenced under both “Clay Aiken” and “prostitution.” You don’t see that every day.
GETTING WARMER: Natalie Quackenbush is approaching thirty, drowning in debt – and did she mention she lives with her parents? To let off steam, she and her friends, all teachers in Scottsdale, AZ, tell outlandish tales to strangers – which is all good fun until she finds herself falling for a man who believes she’s someone else. The nice people at Booklist called GETTING WARMER “absolutely delightful,” and Romantic Times named it a Top Pick.
FICTION FOR TEENS (from HarperTeen):
SNAP: Stuck in a dumpy beach town for the summer, high school sophomore and avid photographer Madison Sabatini thinks her life can't get any worse ... until unexplained figures start showing up in her photographs. "Snow's novel is a page-turning blend of romance, mystery, and the supernatural, with the backdrop of the mortgage crisis as viewed through the eyes of an angst-ridden teen, providing a sense of freshness and currency." (School Library Journal)
SWITCH: Claire Martin is a normal girl with a decidedly abnormal habit of switching bodies during electrical storms. Usually she’s back to her old self in no time – but when she finds herself stuck as a beautiful summer visitor, she wonders if life will ever be the same. Kirkus Reviews calls SWITCH "a suspenseful mystical story."
