Our little rafflecopter was nearly grounded for exceeding the FAA's weight restrictions--We had over 3,000 (!) entries for AG Howard's creeptastic giveaways. Well done!
And now, let's get down to business...
If you know how to roll your Rs, (Just like you did in Spanish class. You remember the drill: erre con erre cigarro erre con erre barril...) Now would be the time to do that. Because we need a drum roll, si?! (Didya catch that?! My little play on words?? I said, "si" instead of "see"??)
Okay, okay, I know. Shut up and get to the good stuff.
Ahem.
After hours of mind-numbing number-crunching and brow-scratching, I am happy to announce that...
I'M NOT ANNOUNCING THE WINNERS!!
Aw, I'm sorry.
That was a mean trick.
But don't get your undies all twisted.
After you roll that bottom lip back into place, jump
over to AG's place. She'll be announcing the winners
sometime this week.
Thanks again to all who entered.
And remember, buy all of our books or
I will club you over the head with a baby snow seal.
Hold on to your moth-covered hats, Fan Club, because you are in for a very special treat.
The incomparable AG Howard stopped by to share something so
delicious and tantalizing that you're going to need a bib to get through this post.
Seriously...grab a paper towel or something. This is HUGE.
Thanks for having me over to your fabulously fun place, Bethany! *hugs* Not only is Bethany one of my very best friends and crit partners, she's also written a funny, touching, and authentic non-PC contemporary YA coming out from Running Press in 2014. You must read this book...it's FANTASTIC.
And speaking of books coming out in 2014, here is the official Unhinged book trailer:
Here's the official synopsis:
Alyssa Gardner has been down the rabbit hole and faced the bandersnatch. She saved the life of Jeb, the guy she loves, and escaped the machinations of the disturbingly seductive Morpheus and the vindictive Queen Red. Now all she has to do is graduate high school and make it through prom so she can attend the prestigious art school in London she's always dreamed of.
That would be easier without her mother, freshly released from an asylum, acting overly protective and suspicious. And it would be much simpler if the mysterious Morpheus didn’t show up for school one day to tempt her with another dangerous quest in the dark, challenging Wonderland—where she (partly) belongs.
As prom and graduation creep closer, Alyssa juggles Morpheus’s unsettling presence in her real world with trying to tell Jeb the truth about a past he’s forgotten. Glimpses of Wonderland start to bleed through her art and into her world in very disturbing ways, and Morpheus warns that Queen Red won’t be far behind.
If Alyssa stays in the human realm, she could endanger Jeb, her parents, and everyone she loves. But if she steps through the rabbit hole again, she'll face a deadly battle that could cost more than just her head.
