As most of you know, us Southerns are pretty much shut down due to six inches of snow.
We never get snow so basically we are all trapped inside - killing each other, renting movies, and eating junk.
But......
I'm poking my head out of the snow for a minute to wish my good friend Beth Revis a wonderful launch day today.
I met Beth online a couple years ago way before we had agents. When we each probably had less than 10 followers and a dream. I loved meeting her finally in person this fall for drinks and am happy to see her day finally here after all the struggles and hard work.
Across the Universe is hitting the stores and everyone needs to go get this book. I got an ARC early last fall and loved the whole creativity and world building around this book.
As the spaceship Godspeed travels toward a new earth, the lives of 100 cryogenically frozen settlers hang in the balance after someone endeavors to quietly murder them. The other passengers aboard the ship have never known life outside its walls and are enslaved by the machinations of Eldest, their tyrannical leader, who divides them into three distinct classes. When Amy, a frozen settler from earth, survives being thawed in a murder attempt, she immediately bonds with Elder, Godspeed's lone teen and future leader. Amy’s individuality, her rebellion, and her fierce desire for freedom, inspire Elder to act on his own doubts and defy Eldest--his mentor and keeper--with shocking results.
The book's web site launches today so go check out the space ship blueprints! So cool.
Or check out all the stuff going on at Beth's site.
Happy Book Bday Beth! Can't wait to see you soar to the stars - at Godspeed :)
Ill announce all the ARC winners later this week after I dig myself out of the ice.
