I've posted before about how important reviews are to me--yes, even the not-so-good ones. Because I believe more reviews will give my book a greater chance of success, I've come up with a review incentive. If you read and review THE ART OF LAINEY by June 3rd, and copy/paste your review in at least three places online, you can win an ARC of LIARS, INC, a copy of the e-novella INFINITE REPEAT, or a postcard signed by Lainey, Micah, Bianca, and me. Contest is international with limitations on the e-novella. More info on the contest form.
Now you are probably wondering if you want an ARC of LIARS, INC. I mean, it doesn't even have a cover or flap copy yet. HarperTeen is still approving this stuff in-house, but I can tell you that LIARS is the story of Max, Preston, and Parvati, who start a business selling lies and alibis to their classmates. Then one day Max sets up an alibi for Preston so he can hook up with a chick in Vegas and it's all good...until Preston never comes home. Did I mention Preston is a US senator's kid? Yeah, the FBI goes after Max and the evidence against him piles up. Max's CIA-wannabe girlfriend, Parvati, tries to help him prove his innocence, with some surprising results. Content info, FYI: there are F-bombs and sexual situations. I think it's a really cool book, but it's quite different from LAINEY. Keep an eye out for a cover reveal in the coming weeks because OMG this cover is going to be ridiculously awesome.

Happy holiday weekend to the U.S. peeps. Happy Sunday to everyone else.
Ok, now LIARS, INC sounds like a book I'd totally love!! Cannot wait to see the coverrrr!!!
ReplyDeleteI need to see the final cover too, because I was so in love with the preliminary that I'm having these nightmares the publisher is going to be like "oh we changed our minds. We're going with a closeup of a ukulele instead" or something. THIS BOOK. This book deserves an epic cover :-)
DeleteEep, LAINEY up there next to Maggie Stiefvater is so cool :)
ReplyDeleteThese postcards are such a fun idea and hey, if going about acquiring one happens to get me one step closer to LIARS, INC, I certainly wouldn't complain ;) (That is my subtle way of saying "EEEEE I'm excited!)
OMG. I am excited too! I haven't looked at the MS in about 3 months since I turned in copy-edits. I hope I still love it when the ARCs appear! :-)
DeleteThat is very exciting! I love Maggie Stiefvater's books! What wonderful book company The Art of Lainey has. :)
ReplyDeleteLiars INC sounds awesome. I am looking forward to seeing the cover and reading it sometime.
Cover reveal in June! Thanks for your comment :-)
