Summer Reads

I have read so many good books lately...and I have a stack more waiting for me :D (I get to read if I'm a good little writer and get some work done :D ) I just finished OBSIDIAN by Jennifer Armentrout and LOVED it!

What great summer reads have you been loving?

Cover Reveal! Christine Fonseca's TRANSCEND


WOO HOO!!!! The day is here! The day celebrating the reveal of Christine Fonseca's Transcend, a YA psychological thriller hitting shelves on September 18, 2012. Here's a little blurb about the story:

All seventeen-year-old composer Ien Montgomery desires is an escape from his family's rigid expectations for his life; someone to inspire his music. When he meets a beautiful violin-prodigy, Kiera McDougal, his life music takes on new life. With her, he imagines a future outside of his parents’ control. That is, until a horrible accident tears them apart.  Sent to die in a sanatorium, Ien’s obsession for Kiera grows unbearable. Tortured by thoughts he can’t escape and the truth of his monstrous disfigurement, he flees, desperate to exact revenge on the people that ruined his life – his parents. But, vengeance is empty. Betrayed by those closest to him, Ien discovers that the price for his happiness may be his sanity.

And now...what we've all been waiting for. The cover for Transcend:

Summer Writing...

is hard LOL My adorable little kidlets are home and wanting attention (one more than the other) which means writing falls by the wayside more often than I'd like. In an effort to get a few more words in, I've started writing my new book by hand - something that worked very well for me on the first draft of my last book but for some reason isn't working so well this time around. But I will keep hauling that poor little notebook of mine every place I go, just in case :)

How are summers for you? Is it easier to get writing time in or harder?
