Exciting news has me squealing and thinking of this quote today. Thanks to you awesome readers, #unraveling is a semi-finalist in not one but TWO categories for the #yabc2017 awards. Eeep! 💙 I've seen this quote everywhere and even have a mug and a bookmark featuring this quote. I looked it up today and discovered it's from a book called #scoringwilder by @authorrsgrey - and now I have to read this book! 💙 "She believed she could, so she did" has been a huge inspiration to me, particularly over the past year. What's a quote that inspires you? 💙 I know I never could have finished Unraveling without your support and encouragement. The semi-final round of voting ends Friday, January 12th. Vote for your fave reads via the link in my bio. You'll also notice @maryweberauthor , @nadinebrandes , @saraecrawford , and @cjredwine made the list!

Did you guys come up with a word for 2018? I've seen some great ones going around. I pondered on what mine would be. What did I really NEED this year? Then I realized... 💜 I need to be PRESENT. 💜 I don't know about you, but I spend a lot of time worrying about things to come. I'm a planner. An I-need-to-know-what-will-happen-right-now type of person. But as I wrapped up edits for the third book in the #Unblemished trilogy, I came to the conclusion that no matter how much planning or worrying I do, it doesn't help me. 💜 I spent hours pouring myself into this series. Worrying about deadlines and all the author things. But the only thing that got me anywhere was working on the story now. Today. Step by step. 💜 So my biggest goal this year is to stop worrying so much about the big overwhelming picture and just focus on today. TODAY I can spend 30 minutes on my new writing project. TODAY I can call my friend. TODAY I have a place to live and when it comes time to move again... well... I'll worry about that then. 💜 What's your focus word for the year? 💜 #myoneword #wordoftheyear #present #bepresent #liveinthemoment #bookflowers #teenreads #yabooks #youngadultbooks #youngadultlit #youngadultfiction #purplebooks #bookstagram #authorsofinstagram #happynewyear2018 #donotworryabouttomorrow #dontworryabouttomorrow #onestepatatime #daybyday #stepbystep

#coverreveal time!!!! Is anyone else in love with the cover for #reclaimingshilosnow ?! 😍 🌷 She was far more capable than Earth’s leaders had accounted for—and they had no idea what she’d do next. 🌷 Known as a brilliant mind that could hack humanity’s darkest secrets, seventeen-year-old Sofi Snow is the most wanted teenager alive. She found her way to the icy, technologically brilliant planet of Delon to find Shilo, the brother everyone but Sofi believes is dead. 🌷 But as she and Ambassador Miguel partner to find her brother and warn those on Earth of Delon’s dark designs on humanity, Sofi’s memories threaten to overtake her, distorting everything she holds true. She knows the Delonese kept her in a dark, deceptive place . . . and destroyed a portion of her life. Now, the more they discover of Sofi’s past, the more Sofi feels herself unraveling—as each new revelation has her questioning the very existence of reality. 🌷 In this harrowing sequel to #TheEvaporationOfSofiSnow , Sofi and Miguel must trust each other and discover the secrets locked inside Sofi’s mind as the line between what’s real and what they imagine begins to slip away . . . threatening to take humanity with it. 🌷 Pre-order this precious via the link in my bio! Shilo hits the shelves March 6, 2018! 🌷 #yabooks #scifibooks #harpercollins #bookstagram #roses #bookroses #bookflowers #yacoverreveal #anticipatedbookrelease #preorderbooks #yalit #yaauthorsofinstagram #yaauthors #suspensenovel #scifinovel #bookpageart #newbook #fridayreads #yareads #teenrelationships #teenreads #siblingrelationships
