Chills & Thrills Tour Re-Cap & Giveaway


Last weekend I had the chance to stop by the Chills & Thrills Teen Book Tour at Book People. This leg of the stop featured TX YA authors, Sophie Jordan, Tera Lynn Childs, Lara Chapman, Tracy Deebs, Jennifer Archer, Mari Mancusi and Jordan Dane.

These ladies were so much fun! We all shared in a lot of laughs and enjoyed talking to them about their writing process, YA books, and the authors asked us in attendance how we find out about new books. There were a lot of bloggers there and many of us agreed that we find out about new books from other bloggers via their reviews, Waiting on Wednesdays, In My Mailbox and Goodreads, as well as recommendations from other authors.

It was a lot of fun visiting with each author, being able to talk to them about their books. They had a lot of books to sign and I was so excited to talk to a few of the debut authors who's books I just received in the mail a few days before. Each author gave me some wonderful swag to giveaway on MM's. Here's what I'm giving away.....

- bookmarks, temp. tattoos and signed Sweet Venom bookmark from Tera Lynn Childs
- signed Through Her Eyes book mark from Jennifer Archer
