Shelley Coriell, noted romance writer, has entered new territory with Welcome, Caller, This is Chloe, her debut novel. Strong in voice, characters, plot, topics, and emotion, Coriell takes readers into the engaging world of Chloe Camden, junior at Del Ray High School in Southern California, as major changes are shaking her life.  Chloe loves vintage shoes, her friends, her family of loving brothers, parents and aging grandmother, and her job at a popular Mexican restaurant. She’s not prepared when her best friends turn on her, her mother and grandmother implode into arguments, and the entire school seems intent upon shunning her. Forced to become part of the struggling high school radio station, KDSR 88.8 FM, in order to satisfy requirements for her Junior Project under the guidance of a new school counselor, she finds herself challenged to leave the past and her expectations behind. Using skills her job has helped her hone, she finds success, acceptance, and newfound talents doing a call-in radio show that blossoms into greater funding for the station, hard-won new friendships, and even love. The book has the reader rooting for Chloe all the way as she navigates quirky colleagues, broken friendships, new romance, and creative ways to be in the world – learning to listen, acting with heart, and stepping into the unknown bravely as she also speaks her mind.  Coriell’s book is a terrific read from start to finish, well written, perfect for teen audiences.
