I just read all of Broken Records by Lilah Suzanne in the course of two hours? I just couldn’t put it down and I devoured the whole thing. I am loving these characters, I am particularly in love with Nico, the main character. He is just so fascinating to me, I adore him. A+ book, I am looking forward to the sequel.




So I just saw this (thanks Tumblr. Your tag system is super) My sincere apologies! And thank you so much. I like that Nico guy, too ;) Sequel comin’ up!

Sideshow by Amy Stilgenbauer

She wanted to flee, to turn and run from the tent as fast as
her feet could carry her, but no matter how many times she sent her legs the
signal to run, they stayed firmly rooted.

Summary


Abby Amaro wants to sing at La Scala Opera House, but she’s a good girl, and in 1957 good girls get married. Still, when she receives her first marriage proposal, she freezes, knowing the way her suitor makes her feel bodes trouble. When he won’t take no for an answer, she flees, joining up with a traveling carnival.


Thanks to a burlesque trapeze artist and the world’s saddest clown, Abby bides her time and fits in until she can rejoin the world she knows. She doesn’t expect a sideshow strongwoman named Suprema, who captures her imagination. As the carnival makes its way across the Midwest, Abby learns much more than she had ever imagined—about herself, about her identity, and, most importantly, about love.

1000 Book Challenge

interludepress:



killianbrewer:



As you may have seen, I am currently running a fundraising campaign, The 1000 Book Challenge, for The Trevor Project and public libraries, two things very near and dear to my heart.


And I need your help.


My publisher and I are seeking people to make donations of $15 to The Trevor Project. For every $15 donation, Interlude Press will also donate a copy of my book, The Rules of Ever After, to a public library. The special edition of the book will have information about The Trevor Project right in the front of the book.
Of the $15 donation, $10 goes directly to The Trevor Project and the other $5 pays for shipping the book to the library. We are trying to raise enough to donate 1000 books to 1000 libraries, which will raise $10,000 for The Trevor Project. For the cost of a single movie ticket, a trip to Starbucks or a pizza delivery, you can help at risk teens and put a book in a library.


My publisher and I are making nothing off of this venture. Your donation is tax deductible. You can sponsor anywhere between 1 and 100 books. (Sponsor 5 and you get a free digital copy of the book. 10 and you get a print copy)


You can help me in three ways:


1) Sponsor books here. Sponsor a book.


2) Know a librarian? Libraries can register to receive a book here.


3) Spread the Word through Thunderclap. This service will place a single post on July 7th on your Twitter, Tumblr or Facebook feed (or all 3 if your are a social media master). You login to your service through Thunderclap but it does not store any of your information and will only post the one time.  Register Here


Thanks for any help you can give on my project.


Trevor is the nation’s leading suicide prevention hotline for LGBTQ+ teens. They offer 24 hour online and telephone support to teens and outreach programs in communities across the nation. If you want to read more on Trevor Project you can check out their website at www.thetrevorproject.org.



Here is the working Thunderclap link: http://thndr.me/5L46uR 


Thanks!
