Best YA Romances of 2010

Kari at A Good Addiction talked about The Best YA Romances in 2010 at author Suzanne Young's blog.   Kari gave love to some very awesome books, and I'm excited that Seth and Rosetta from Freefall are listed as #5 on her Top 10 list! I really love what she said about my characters, especially this:  Don't let the cover flap of this one fool you, it’s a romance, and a darn near perfect one at that.

Awwww!

Freefall: Gift Recommendation, Top 10 List, and Fun Blog Feature

Freefall was recently featured at three of my favorite book blogs, which is always very fun for me to see! 1.  Melissa at YA Book Shelf made a list of recommendations for people who would like to buy books as gift for the teens in their lives.  She suggested Freefall, as well as Losing Faith by Denise Jaden, as books that deal with the death of a loved one.

2.  Amber at Just Your Typical Book Blog made an end-of-the-year video counting down her Top 10 Books of 2010.  I'm thrilled that Freefall is her #3!  Here, you can see the rest of Amber's list and watch the short video she made that contains a short phrase or two about why each book was chosen.

3.  Kari at A Good Addiction wrote a fun post called "Ladies and Their Tramps" in which she did some matchmaking for a few of her favorite fictional girls and boys.  Kendall from Freefall was paired up with Harlin from Suzanne Young's forthcoming A Need So Beautiful.  Check out the other new couples from Kari's imagination here!

"Best I've Read 2010" - Interview & Giveaway

A group of book bloggers is hosting the first annual "Best I've Read in 2010" feature.  This includes tons of guest posts and author interviews as well as book giveaways galore! I did an interview and am giving away a copy of Freefall here.  If you check out the sidebar on that page, there is also a list of all the book they are giving away and links to enter.  It seems that most of the contests are ending December 16, 2010.

Freefall and I made our "glossy" debuts

The January 2011 issue of Writer's Digest magazine (in stores now -- I think!) has a photo of me, Freefall, and short interview.  If you subscribe or pick it up, check out pages 18 & 19!
