A Call for Blog Tour Participants: Shimmer and Burn

Shadows_Paperback Haze-paperback Shimmer Burn

Dear Readers,

You are invited to join Paula Weston on her blog tour! It’s time for North America to experience the finale to the Rephaim series! Visit our previous blog tours to see what readers had to say about the first two books, Shadows and Haze.

So what is a blog tour?
Similar to an author tour where the author travels from store to store across the country, a blog tour is when a series of blogs post about the book during a consecutive number of days.

What do I need to participate?
Just three little things! First of all, you will need an active blog. Second, a love for reading. Third, a commitment to post on your scheduled blog tour date.

How can I help during the blog tour?
As a participating blogger, you will be sent a finished copy of Shimmer and/or Burn to read (depending on which tour you sign up for). On your assigned tour date, please post a review about the book for tour followers to see.

We will be promoting the blog tour by sharing your link on our own blog here, our facebook page, and twitter. Paula will also be sharing your posts on her website, facebook, and twitter page. We would greatly appreciate it if you could help spread the word too! Feel free to re-post your reviews on Goodreads, LibraryThing, or online retailers.

When is the blog tour?
The Shimmer blog tour is tentatively scheduled for March 14 to 18, 2016.
The Burn blog tour is tentatively scheduled for June 13 to 17, 2016.

Where do I sign up?
The sign up form closed on February 23. Thank you!

Cheers,
Sylvia

The Dark Missions of Edgar Brim
The Dark Missions of Edgar Brim
Written by Shane Peacock
Publication Date: May 3, 2015
Hardcover | 256 Pages | Ages 12+
ISBN: 9781770496989
eBook: 9781770497009

The first in this dark and dramatic new Gothic trilogy is set in the late Victorian era, in its haunted country manor houses, dark London streets and the desolate Scottish moors. It tells the story of Edgar Brim, who at age sixteen, battling debilitating inner fears, but armed with the help of an eccentric collection of comrades, embarks upon the pursuit and assassination of “the evil three.”

Every Word Blog Tour: Day 5

EveryWord-BlogBanner
Even though it’s the last day of the blog tour, we have a feeling that the #Wattscroft love won’t be stopping here! Check out these amazing finale posts!

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 20, 2015

>> Lauren at Love is not a triangle has Ellie Marney go on location in London. Take a visual tour of the spots Ellie researched for Every Word.

>> Kristen at My Friends Are Fiction features Ellie Marney in her author spotlight. Read about Australian, Ellie’s writing space, and writing methods.

>> Morgan at Gone with the Words enthusiastically tells us that “this series is AMAZING…. Needless to say, I fell in love with Marney’s characters and the breakneck speed and tension with which she tells their story. It’s really intense but it’s also a lot of fun. It makes you sweat, it makes your heart pound, and it makes you anxious to piece together the puzzle. The Sherlock parallels are subtle and really clever. Plus WATTSCROFT IS THE SHIP OF SHIPS!!” Are you convinced yet?

>> Author Leanne Dyck reads Every Word from a writer’s perspective, jotting down notes from beginning to end.

Every Word Blog Tour: Day 4

THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 19, 2015

>> Michelle at FAB BOOK REVIEWS recommends Every Word “for readers looking for taut, raw and romantic new contemporary YA novels to dive into.”

>> Marie at Ramblings of a Daydreamer is keeping our tour musical with her preferred playlist. And then a trip down memory lane when she visited Baker Street in London!

>> Liz at Midnight Bloom Reads says “Ellie Marney’s Every Word is one of the most sophisticated, meticulously researched YA murder mysteries that I’ve ever read. The forensic techniques and explanations/theories devised during the investigation all felt within the realm of possibility. Elle Marney has surely outdone herself this time!”

>> How could you not read this series when Amy at Tripping Over Books says “Guys, this book is everything. (The whole series is everything.) … There’s danger, mystery, romance, feelings, and one of the greatest ships of all time. I can’t recommend it enough.”

>> “Ellie Marney has a beautiful way of writing, talented in making you feel her characters love, lust, pain, and despair profoundly.” – Rachel at The Readers Den
