ACROSS THE UNIVERSE Giveaway!

Today I want to celebrate the paperback release of Beth Revis’ ACROSS THE UNIVERSE! I’ve known Beth for a long time now and not only is she a fantastic writer who isn’t afraid to delve into deep issues, but she’s been a great friend to me over the years. She was such a support to me when I moved from Korea to the States and dealing with the adjustments. Beth truly is a beautiful person. It’s evident in how she treats people and the heart she has for her readers. I can only say wonderful things about her.
If you haven’t heard about her awesome science fiction set in space, here’s a little blurb:

A murder mystery in space…

Romance set in the future…

Dystopian with a fresh twist…

Thought provoking and introspective…

Action-packed page turner…

ACROSS THE UNIVERSE, written by Beth Revis, takes the reader on an adventure set in a spaceship bound for a new planet. Seventeen year-old Amy, frozen with her parents to be part of the group to land on this new planet, wakes up 50 years too early. And it’s not a computer glitch. It was done on purpose. As Amy deals with the culture shock of being on a spaceship with very different rules, she also is on the hunt to discover who is unplugging—and killing—the frozens. Because her parents might be next.

 

I know. It’s full of awesomeness. And I’m giving away two paperback copies! But that’s not all. Because January 10, 2012, the sequel, A MILLION SUNS, will be released. So I will be giving away a preordered hardcopy too! And I think it’s even better than ACROSS THE UNIVERSE. Ohhhhh!!!!!

Comment below to enter. You can get 1 extra point if you recommend the book to your local librarian, 1 extra point if you tweet the contest, and 1 extra point if you blog about the contest.



The three winners will be announced on Dec. 11th!
Good luck!

  26. Oh my gosh, you are being so generous thank you so much! It would be the best present ever to receive any one of the books you’re giving away, since I love Beth Revis so much. I retweeted your comment about the contest, and best of luck to all who entered! Thanks once again for this amazing opportunity! 🙂
    Also just wanted to say that I had my school librarian order this book for our library! I think all the messages and issues discussed in Beth Revis’s books are so relatable and important; it’s a great lesson for all to learn. Plus, the cover itself is so gorgeous it will look perfect up on our “recommended shelf.” XO 🙂

  27. Oh excited! Thanks for this contest!
