After years as a professional ballroom dancer, Josh Morgenstein '96 is trying his hand at writing a novel (and it has nothing to do with dancing).
THE LEAGUE OF DANGEROUS YOUNG LADIES is a YA fantasy adventure set in 1909. Described as Enola Holmes meets Buffy, The Vampire Slayer, it follows the daughters of Victorian literature's greatest villains as they fight to save the world. It's perfect for everyone from young teens (12 and up) to fantasy-loving adults.
Published by Sourcebooks under their amazing new Stonefruit Studio imprint.
Out June 2nd, but available for pre-order now wherever books are sold!
To help promote his book, Josh visits local bookstores and sees how much he can teach a bookseller to dance in just 5 minutes. You can check out his visits in a series called "Dancing with the Stores" on his Instagram page (@jamorgenstein)!
