The party has started! One of my WOW-Women on Writing colleagues, Margo Dill, is celebrating the release of her YA novel Caught Between Two Curses with a virtual book party over at The Literary Ladies blog. Check it out for your chance to win some of these great prizes:
I am excited that Caught Between Two Curses is up next in my "to be read" pile and I will be reviewing the book for Women on Writing in just a few weeks. Here's a synopsis of the book:
Seventeen-year-old Julie Nigelson is cursed. So is her entire family. And it’s not just any-old-regular curse, either-it’s strangely connected to the famous “Curse of the Billy Goat” on the Chicago Cubs. Julie must figure out this mystery while her uncle lies in a coma and her entire love life is in ruins: her boyfriend Gus is pressuring her to have sex, while her best friend Matt is growing more attractive to her all the time. Somehow, Julie must figure out how to save her uncle, her family’s future, and her own love life-and time is running out!
- A $10 Amazon Gift Card
- One e-copy of Caught Between Two Curses
- Two Caught Between Two Curses signed extra large bookmarks
- One free, up to 3,000-word full edit of any document
