Hello, friends. So today I have some pretty cool news to share with you, a few great books to add to your ever-expanding to-be-read piles, and a giveaway, which is what I suspect drew you to my blog in the first place. But to explain all this, I’m going to hand the mic over to my fellow Bookanista, another Tracy—one whose parents didn’t torture her by adding an “e” to her name, thereby making it impossible for anyone to remember how it’s spelled.

YA Scifi Adventure
“I've never been actively jealous of a fictional character . . . until now. Aris’s adventures set my imagination on fire, and made my heart take flight.” ~Kass Morgan, author of New York Times bestseller The 100
The Dominion of
Atalanta is at war. But for eighteen-year-old Aris, the fighting is nothing more
than a distant nightmare, something she watches on news vids from the safety of
her idyllic seaside town. Then her boyfriend, Calix, is drafted into the
Military, and the nightmare becomes a dangerous reality.
Left behind, Aris has nothing to fill
her days. Even flying her wingjet—the thing she loves most, aside from
Calix—feels meaningless without him by her side. So when she’s recruited to be a
pilot for an elite search-and-rescue unit, she leaps at the chance, hoping
she’ll be stationed near Calix. But there’s a catch: She must disguise herself
as a man named Aristos. There are no women in the Atalantan Military, and there
never will be.
Aris gives up everything to find Calix:
her home. Her family. Even her identity. But as the war rages on, Aris
discovers she’s fighting for much more than her relationship. With each injured
person she rescues and each violent battle she survives, Aris is becoming a true soldier—and the best flyer in
the Atalantan Military. She’s determined to save her Dominion . . . or die
trying.
About Me
Award-winning author, Army wife, and mom
Tracy Banghart has an MA in Publishing and an unhealthy affection for cupcakes.
Her quiet childhood led to a reading addiction, writing obsession, and several
serious book boyfriends. Rebel Wing is
her third novel. She can be found at TracyBanghart.com.
When seventeen-year-old
Ashley Watson walks through the halls of her high school, bullies taunt and
shove her. She can’t go a day without fighting with her mother. And no matter
how hard she tries, she can’t make her best friend, Matt, fall in love with
her. But Ashley also has something no one else does: a literal glimpse into the
future. When Ashley looks into the mirror, she can see her twenty-three-year-old
self.
Her older self has been
through it all already—she endured the bullying, survived the heartbreak, and
heard every ugly word her classmates threw at her. But her older self is also keeping
a dark secret: Something terrible is about to happen to Ashley. Something that will change her life
forever. Something even her older self is powerless to stop.
Perfect for fans of Thirteen Reasons Why and The List, Every Ugly Word is a gripping and emotional story about
the devastating consequences of bullying.
About Aimee
Aimee L. Salter lives in Southern Oregon with her husband and son. She writes novels for teens and the occasional adult who, like herself, is still in touch with their inner-high schooler.

Aimee blogs for both writers and readers at AimeelSalter.com. You can also find her on Twitter and Facebook. Every Ugly Word is her debut novel.
Everyone is exactly like me.
There is no one like me.
Ven wrestles with
these contradicting truths every day. A clone of wealthy 18-year-old
Raven Rogen, Ven knows everything about the girl she was created to serve: the
clothes she wears, the boys she loves, the friends she loves to hate. Yet she’s
never met the Authentic Raven face-to-face. Imitations like Ven only get to leave
the lab when they’re needed—to replace a dead Authentic, donate an organ, or complete
a specific mission. And Raven has never needed Ven . . . until now.
When there is an
attack on Raven’s life, Ven is thrust into the real world, posing as Raven to
draw out the people who tried to harm her. But as Ven dives deeper into Raven’s
world, she begins to question everything she was ever told. She exists for
Raven, but is she prepared to sacrifice herself for a girl she’s never met?
Fans of Cinder, The Selection, and Sara
Shepard’s Lying Game series will love Imitation, a thrilling, action-packed novel sure
to keep readers guessing until the very last page.
About Heather
Heather Hildenbrand was born and raised in a small town in northern Virginia where she was homeschooled through high school. She now lives in coastal VA, a few miles from the Atlantic Ocean, with her two adorable children. She works from home, part time, as a property manager and when she's not furiously pounding at the keyboard, or staring off into space whilst plotting a new story, she's lying on the beach, soaking in those delicious, pre-cancerous rays. Heather loves Mexican food, hates socks with sandals, and if her house was on fire, the one thing she'd grab is her DVR player. You can find out more about her and her books at HeatherHildenbrand.blogspot.com.
Heather is a co-founder of Accendo Press, a publishing group she operates with fellow authors Angeline Kace and Jennifer Sommersby. Accendo (a-CH-endo), A Latin word, means “to kindle, illuminate, inflame, or set fire.” This is something Accendo strives to do inside a reader’s imagination with every title released.
