Thing #2! A couple of weeks ago, BBB&S got its first major review. It came from Kirkus, and it was a rave.
Debut author Allen has crafted a gripping narrative that explores complex questions of agency, the impossibility of remaining innocent in an unjust system, and how manipulating history enables the domination of the present. … Most of the characters’ motivations avoid simplistic moral binaries, and wrathful, ruthless Jae, who uses her newfound power to punish and even kill without regret, is a particularly courageous choice for a heroine.
Ferocious and intelligent.
(I bet now you hope you win that giveaway even more.)
Thing #3! While this lovely website, which is still pretty shiny and new, will always be here to help you keep track of my book-related comings and goings, it certainly isn’t the only way. Pick whichever you prefer:
- Sign up for my mailing list! No spam, just info about my books.
- You dig Facebook? Well, I’ve got one of those.
- And of course, there is no better place to follow me than Twitter, where I hang out more or less constantly.
Or, you know, do all of the above…
Thing #4! You know how this blog entry title says there’s a teaser in here? Well.
That, my friends, would be the first line of the book. Consider yourself teased. (Seriously, go enter the giveaway.)
