Meet Marissa Meyer in Toronto!

Marissa Meyer, author of the Lunar Chronicles is coming to Toronto in just over one week on March 9th. I am beyond thrilled to have the opportunity to meet her in person as I absolutely loved Cinder and with just under 100 pages to go, I am loving Scarlet just as much! Myself and some of the other Ottawa Bloggers are making the trip especially for this event so I just know it's going to be an awesome weekend.

To make things even better, Raincoast Books is running a contest giving one lucky blogger the opportunity to have a one-on-one interview with Marissa Meyer. All you have to do to enter is post a question you would ask Marissa should you win. So my question would be:

Of all the fairy tales out there, why did you choose to adapt Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Rapunzel and Snow White for the Lunar Chronicles?

If you are planning on attending this event be sure to let me know, I always love meeting new people. And if you want more information on this awesome contest, check out the poster below!

Excited for Silence

As many of you may be aware, Silence, book three in Becca Fitzpatrick's Hush, Hush saga will be releasing soon. I've read the other two books in this series, and I have to admit that I am pretty excited for this one.

When I first read Hush, Hush (my review) last year, I wondered why I had waited to so long to pick up this book. I was completely drawn into the story and I felt like I could relate to Nora on multiple levels. Plus, Patch wasn't so bad once I figured him out. Then earlier this year I read Crescendo (my review) and once again wondered why I had pushed off reading it for so long. It was a great story, but I have to admit that I didn't like it as much as I had liked the first book. Not that it was a bad read by any means, I just didn't like the story as much.

Now with the release of Silence looming, I can't wait to get back to this story, especially after the way the last instalment left off. I couldn't believe it just ended that way and already I was looking forward to this book. 

And now, to make things even better, Becca Fitzpatrick has just announced that there will be a book four to this awesome saga. It doesn't have a title yet and all I know is that it will be coming out in the fall next year. I haven't even read Silence yet and I'm already looking forward to it. 

Now if you are Canadian, things are getting even better for you. Simon & Schuster Canada, who publishes Becca Fitzpatrick's books in Canada, is having an awesome Silence Sweepstakes Contest. Check out the prizes in the picture below and follow the link above for your chance to enter. Let me just say, if I lived in the Toronto area, I would be all over this.

So if you are Canadian, be sure to hurry and go enter before it's too late!
