OPPRESSION Virtual Launch Party!!

Oppression

(Children of the Gods #1)

There are others like her.
Many of them. 

And they have been waiting for her 

...for a long time.

Elyse knows what it means to keep a secret. She's been keeping secrets her whole life. Two, actually. First, that she ages five times slower than the average person, so that while she looks eighteen years old, she's closer to eighty. Second, that her blood has a mysterious power to heal. For Elyse, these things don't make her special. They make life dangerous. After the death of her parents, she's been careful to keep her secret as closely guarded as possible. Now, only one other person in the world knows about her age and ability. Or so she thinks. Elyse is not the only one keeping secrets. There are others like her all over the world, descendants of the very people the Greeks considered gods. She is one of them, and they have been waiting for her for a long time. Among so many of her kind, she should not be very remarkable--except for the prophecy. Some believe she will put an end to traditions, safeguarded by violence, which have oppressed her people for centuries. Others are determined to keep her from doing just that. But for Elyse, the game is just beginning--and she's not entirely willing to play by their rules.

The Buzz: OPPRESSION Virtual Launch Party Tomorrow!

Hey! It's sort of awesome that I can post about Oppression for this week's The Buzz. If you're unfamiliar with my Monday posts, usually I write about what's hot in the YA book/movie world. Lately it's been all about The Host movie, The Hunger Games Movie, Veronica Roth's debut novel Divergent, Moira Young's debut novel Blood Red Road, and other tidbits of YA information.

Today my news is about my own YA debut book launch! Tomorrow I'll be hosting (along with some awesome blogger friends) a Virtual Launch Party for Oppression (Children of the Gods #1). I've been waiting forever for this, so I am beyond excited (I'm jumping, flailing, singing....and of course...DANCING!). When I announced I'd be having a Virtual Launch Party I jokingly bragged that there would be virtual dancing. I do LOVE dancing. Thanks to my fellow author friend Rachel Morgan, that joke turned into a dare...SO...yes. There will be virtual dancing in the form of a video. How can you pass up a chance to see that, right?

Come back tomorrow to join in the fun and dance along with me :)
