“Ms. Ivan’s descriptions of Epitome, Maine were so illustrative that I felt I was really there. This book will have you on the edge of your seat not only during the suspenseful moments, but the romantic ones, as well! I truly cared what happened between the main characters, Claire and Phillip, and loved the manner in which their relationship played out. With a serial killer on the loose in Epitome, this added a suspenseful element to the story that made it even harder to put down. This book definitely kept me up late at night because I couldn’t wait to see what happened next.” – Reviewer praise, 2012

“Dialogue throughout this story [Trapped in Epitome] is so good I could hear the characters talking in my head . . . The author clearly knows how to tell a wonderful story for people who like character driven books.” – Writer’s Digest Self-Published Book Awards, 2012
“Inflatable Men by Amy Ivan is one of those delicious stories that female readers and men who know anything about the world of fashion will devour and spread the word to their friends. Although the plot is well developed, the characters drive this fascinating story with all their quirks and foibles that are realistic in the scenarios they’ve been placed.” – Writer’s Digest Self-Published Book Awards, 2012
