It’s that time of week again. Anyone for a writing experiment?
With all the new tools out there to monitor book sales and blurbs mentioned about their books, I’m going to highlight a new book each week. I’ll post it in the morning. If by the end of the day that author finds her book on this post I want her or him to tell us how they discovered it; word of mouth through the close network of writers, a Yahoo group mention, or through some new fangled Google tool.
Now, how will I choose this book each week? It will be a book that caught my attention. As a reader, I will keep an eye out for something that either provoked me to read the blurb, look at the author’s blog, or purchase said book.
Before I reveal my choice I want to clarify that this author has no idea that I’ve chosen his/her book.
The book I chose was: Perigee Moon by Tara A. Fuller
After a horrific fire claims the life of her mother, seventeen year old Rowan Bliss finds herself in the miniscule town of Ipswich, Massachusetts. It’s here that she meets Alex, a deliciously mysterious boy who holds the key to unlocking her family’s dark secret.
As Rowan falls helplessly over the edge for Alex, the secrets that he insists on keeping refuse to be contained, and the truth that she uncovers challenges everything she has ever believed. Alex is a witch. And now he’s awakened something within her she never even knew existed. But out of all of this, the one thing Rowan won’t accept is the fact that Alex is destined to die.
Now Rowan must unearth the buried power she harbors within to escape a deadly prophecy, defy the very laws of time, and prevent the hands of fate from taking yet another person she loves.

This book was a recomendation from someone who read it in one day. I was like, really? In one day? She said, “Yes.” Sold. That is about the highest recomendation there is. Okay, I still went and read the blurb. 
I love a good YA story, so I think this one is going on my TBR pile.
How about you? Will you give this book a try? Have you read it? If so, please share your thoughts.
Ya see, this is why I love the writing community; writers going out of their way to help other writers. Thank you Ciara.
YA isn’t really my cup of tea, but the blurb sounds interesting. I have it on my TBR list.
Charlie ~ I’m so glad you like the series. I always select new or up and coming authors. There is something special about a fresh voice. You know what I mean? Thanks for checking it out.
This sounds awesome! I think I will be purchasing this one today. Thanks for sharing such great finds!
This book is exactly what I would read. Great blurb and title. Thanks for sharing.
The book sounds so good and the cover is intriguing!
What a very cool idea! Such an original twist on featuring books and supporting writers. But to answer your question, no I wouldn’t pick it up but only because I don’t read much YA. And if a cover says YA to me, I’m likely to avoid it unless it has something really different and compelling to make me try it
Juliana ~ I agree.
Karen G ~ Well, stop back by another week. I feature all different style books.
Julie ~ Great! Thanks, I’m glad you found a new book.
Marta ~ Awesome! I hope you enjoy. Stop back and let us know what you thought when you were done.
I see Tara hasn’t found her book just yet!
I will be reading this one
Alex ~ Nope, not yet. BUT, it is early.
Hildie ~ I think I will, too.
Does Goodreads have a limit on how many books I can add to my TBR list? NO? That’s a bad thing. This blurb and the recommendation (read in one day) has my attention.
Wow! Thank you so much for featuring my book Ciara! This just made my day. Totally wasn’t expecting that. You are the best!
Tara ~ Yay! You found your book. How did you find out that Perigee Moon was Noticed?
I saw that Kendall Grey posted it on Twitter.
Thanks, Tara. I always get asked how the author found his/her book.
Brinda ~ Right. I’ve been trying to fit more reading in lately. I hope to read at least 50 books this year. I’ve completed two. Four if full critiques count.
Oh, yeah. Just the moon on the front cover was enough to grab my attention. Slapping it on the TBR pile!
I’m not sure I could get through a children’s book in one day.
It sounds mysterious and magical. I’d read it.
Laura ~ I know what you mean. BTW – your book is NEXT on my TBR pile. Yay!!!
Christopher ~ I’m not sure I can read any book in one day.
Kirsten ~ It does, doesn’t it.
This sounds like a great book. Guess I’m going to have to add this to my collection
You can’t go past a rec like that! There are certainly some gorgeous covers out there. This one is very atmospheric.
Gorgeous cover!
Lindsay ~ Yay!
Shelley ~ I agree.
Vicki ~ Right.
Yes I would definitely read this book……the review sounds quite awesome……
That’s a short answer. And as affirmative as you can get!
I like the cover of the book.
Linda ~ I couldn’t believe she read it in one day. Now that is a book you can’t put down.
The Golden Eagle ~ No kidding.
Yay. She found the book!!!! Okay, I read this book in ONE DAY, you guys. Yep. THAT good!!!! You must check this book out!
I feel like I say this every time but that cover is beautiful. And I’ll read any book that someone says is a page turner
I do like the sound of that book. I also like your idea of asking the authors how they found your post on their book.
Nice blurb and GREAT cover!
The cover looks great, for sure I would stop to check it out.
So cool the author found the book
I love the cover and that blurb is interesting, definitely caught my attention. And yet again my wallet shakes its fist at Ciara for featuring great books, LOL
