Update (As of February 9, 2012)

Hi everyone! Things have been a wee bit hectic with prelims coming soon. I've read loads of books meanwhile, and hope to post more reviews soon rather than leaving them in Draftsland. Thanks for all your support and encouragement. Authors/publicists: I'm currently not accepting any review requests as stated in the updated policy, but I do so appreciate that you consider this blog a worthy avenue for your books.

The Best First Chapter You'll Ever Read

on Thursday, 26 August 2010
That's what the PW Daily email said. Really.

And I agree SO MUCH.

Clicky to embiggen.

They're talking about Across The Universe by Beth Revis, which got Twitter all aflutter yesterday when Beth posted the link to the excerpt. In the words of Kiersten White: "Beth Revis is REMAKING YA sci-fi. There, I said it first."

Definitely. And Beth is a Doctor Who fan, which adds to her awesomeness by infinite factors.

What are you waiting for? Go to the website, read the excerpt, take a few moments to ooh and ahh, come back and leave a comment, and then tell Beth about her amazeballs excerpt on her Twitter or her blog!
