"Morpheus Road" ~ Giveaway! by Author D.J. MacHale



Today, ONE of my VERY LUCKY Reader's will soon have in their hands a *SIGNED* Copy of "Morpheus Road : The Light" by D. J. MacHale! I am just about done with this one and let me tell you, the only complaint that I have is that it's coming to an end much too quickly for me! I wish I had more time with this book. I'm really enjoying it!   He's got another adorable book coming out soon called "Monster Princess" and I can't wait!  For now, let me tell you a little bit about "Morpheus Road : The Light".  That's the one you've got a chance to win *SIGNED* by the author himself!

About The Book -

D.J. MacHale, author of the #1 New York Times bestselling Pendragon series, has a new adventure for readers in Morpheus Road.

Marshall Seaver is being haunted. In The Light, the first installment of this chillingly compelling trilogy, sixteen-year-old Marshall discovers that something beyond our world is after him. The eerie clues pile up quickly, and when people start dying, it's clear whatever this is--it's huge.

Marshall has no idea what's happening to him, but he's soon convinced that it has something to do with his best friend Cooper, who's been missing for over a week. Together with Coop's sister, Marsh searches for the truth about what happened to his friend, ultimately uncovering something bigger than he could ever have imagined.

Morpheus Road will be out in stores on April 20th!

Now, you don't have to take MY word for it. If you like ghost stories.... well, watch this.

Giveaway! "Airhead" and "Being Nikki" Author - Meg Cabot

In preparation for Meg Cabot's third book "Runaway"  in her New York Time's Best Selling "AIRHEAD TRILOGY"  which is being released in stores on April 20th,I have a fantastic giveaway for YOU!  The first two books "Airhead" and "Being Nikki" will be given away to TWO of my Lucky Readers! Each winner will win a copy of each book in order to catch up for the newest book "Runaway"!

Let me start off by telling you a little bit about each book!



 "AIRHEAD" -

It’s about modeling. Gaming. And corporate greed. With hot guys. Oh, and a poodle. Airhead is the first book in a new trilogy by #1 New York Times best-selling author Meg Cabot. With Cabot’s signature wit, Airhead is pitch perfect for teen summer reading.

One day she’s a brainiac. The next she’s…not herself. Emerson Watts isn’t your average sixteen-year-old girl. She loves playing video games and hanging out with her best friend Christopher, and has made peace with her less-than-supermodel-esque looks. But when she’s involved in a mysterious accident, she finds herself…not herself at all. Who’s behind it? What’s their motive? And how can she get Christopher to realize she’s still the same person inside? One thing’s for sure: Em Watts is gone. Nikki Howard is here to stay.



"BEING NIKKI" -

Emerson Watts was pretty sure there couldn’t be anything worse than being a straight A student whose brain had been transplanted into the body of a teenage supermodel. But it turned out she was wrong: Because that supermodel could turn out to have a mother who’s mysteriously gone missing, a brother who’s shown up demanding answers, and a British heartthrob who’s written a song about her that’s topping the charts.

Now Em’s got to deal with all that, plus a lingerie fashion show, a crush who’s intent on destroying the company she works for to avenge the death of his lost love; and a boss that seems to be turning to the dark side….But then, nobody said it was going to be easy being Nikki.



"RUNAWAY" being released on April 20, 2010 -

High fashion with a touch of sci-fi. In Runaway, the dramatic conclusion to the bestselling and acclaimed Airhead novels by Meg Cabot, Emerson Watts is on the run: from school, from work, from her family, from her friends, from herself.


With everyone she loves furious with her for something she can’t explain, and nothing but the live Stark Angel fashion show on New Year’s Eve to look forward to, Em’s reached the end of the rope…what’s thepoint of even going on?

But when she discovers the truth about Nikki’s secret, she knows there’s only one

person she can turn to. Will Christopher be able to put aside his personal feelings and help her expose her employer to the world? Is it even fair to get Christopher involved—since if he agrees, there’s every chance that Stark Enterprises will try to have them both killed—this time, permanently?

Maybe it would be better for Em to just keep on running…



About the Author MEG CABOT -

Meg Cabot is the author of more than fifty books for both adults and teens. Her books have sold over fifteen million copies worldwide, many of which have been #1 New York Times bestsellers. The most notable of these is The Princess Diaries series, which is currently being published in over 38 countries, and was made into two hit movies by Disney. In addition, Meg wrote the All American Girl, Mediator, and 1-800-Where-R-You series (on which the television series, Missing, was based). She is now writing a new middle grade series called Allie Finkle's Rules for Girls, as well as an edgy new young adult series, Airhead.
 
Meg was born on February 1, 1967, during the Chinese astrological year of the Fire Horse, a notoriously unlucky sign. Fortunately she grew up in Bloomington, Indiana, where few people were aware of the stigma of being a fire horse ­­­- at least until Meg became a teenager, when she flunked freshman Algebra twice, then decided to cut her own bangs. After six years as an undergrad at Indiana University, Meg moved to New York City to pursue a career as an illustrator, at which she failed miserably, forcing her to turn to her favorite hobby-writing novels-for emotional succor. She worked various jobs to pay the rent, including a decade-long stint as the assistant manager of a 700-bed freshmen dormitory at NYU, a position she still occasionally misses.

Meg currently divides her time between Key West, Florida, and New York City with a primary cat (one-eyed Henrietta), various back-up cats, and her husband, who doesn't know he married a fire horse. Please don't tell him.



Personally, these books are ALL ME! I LOVE everything about them! Please remember that this giveaway includes the first two books only for TWO lucky winners.  But, I am a fan of Meg Cabot on Facebook, and I am also a fan of her first book "AIRHEAD" and I just happened to see that she's also giving away arc of "Runaway". Just a heads up! But, if you're interested in catching up before the BIG RELEASE DAY! I've got both "AIRHEAD" & "BEING NIKKI"! Ready to hear how?
