In honor of Banned Books Week, YA Indie Author Jodi Baker is offering Wattpad Readers an exclusive, super-secret 'Sneak Peek' of her debut novel, TRUST... a book about banned books!

TRUST.

That’s what the voice inside my head kept repeating when I woke up between the infamous lion statues of the New York Public Library, with no idea how I got there and no memory of the last year of my life.

The only person I ever trusted was my mother, who lied about everything.

My mother’s Egyptian ankh necklace was the key to unlocking the truth she hid from me:

I’m the last in a long line of powerful women whose secrets date back to the ancient Library of Alexandria.

For centuries, books have been banned and destroyed for the wisdom and truth held within their pages. From the burning of ancient libraries, to the brutal murder of Hypatia of Alexandria, whose death signaled the beginning of the Dark Age, there has always been a war between those powerful few who want to keep humanity from their greatest treasures, and those who believe that the 'diary of the human race' should be gifted to all. 

I want to be on the right side of that war.  So now, I’m fighting like hell to stay alive while searching for both my missing mother and the truth, desperate to find something or someone I can trust.

USA Today listed TRUST as, "MUST-READ YA". The Arriviste called it, "America's answer to Harry Potter." Now you can celebrate freedom and your right to read with the Four Part, Exclusive Wattpad 'Sneak Peek' that will be revealed during Banned Books Week, before the official hardcover retail release of TRUST on October 3, 2015.

One story, multiple ways to enjoy it! Read the bestselling published book right here as Wattpad Original or experience the story as a Webcomic on WEBTOON. Dive into the world of love and magic, any way you like to read. *** Sometimes love is the strongest magic of all *** Nineteen-year-old Rhia Greenbrook has lived in the sleepy town of Oakriver in a house with three generations of witches her entire life. Rhia draws her magic from the earth and likes to spend her time amongst plants and nature. Her practice is gentle, sacred, and-per her family's tradition-secret. New-to-town witch Valerie Morgan is looking for answers about her mother's disappearance from Oakriver seventeen years ago. Without her mother's guidance, Valerie has cultivated her fire magic on her own and she makes no effort to keep her powers hidden. Although Rhia is immediately annoyed by Valerie's blatant use of magic, she can't deny the instant magnetism between them. But amidst their magical connection, a dark presence looms over Oakriver. Unsettling visions from Rhia's grandmother and dangerous sleepwalking episodes throw into question Valerie's past and what role her presence plays in the strange happenings. And as Valerie gets tangled up further into the darkness, it's up to Rhia to tap into the full potential of her power in order to save the town she loves and the girl she's fallen for.
