It's about books, so I figured that I might as well post here..... although it's a little harder, as Vox doesn't allow copy/paste of HTML code.
I am participating in a blogging experiment hosted at dearauthor.com. To enter the contest, put up this blurb, image, and trackback and you are entered to win the following prize package.
- $200 Amazon gift certificate
- Signed copy of Slave to Sensation
- New Zealand goodies chosen by Singh
- ARC of Christine Feehan's October 31 release: Conspiracy Game
You can read about the experiment here and you can download the code that you need to participate here.
SLAVE TO SENSATION
Nalini Singh
Berkley / September 2006
Welcome to a future where emotion is a crime and powers
of the mind clash brutally against those of the heart.
Sascha Duncan is one of the Psy, a psychic race that has
cut off its emotions in an effort to prevent murderous
insanity. Those who feel are punished by having their
brains wiped clean, their personalities and memories
destroyed.
Lucas Hunter is a Changeling, a shapeshifter who craves
sensation, lives for touch. When their separate worlds
collide in the serial murders of Changeling women, Lucas
and Sascha must remain bound to their identities�or sacrifice everything for a taste
of darkest temptation.

REALITY CHICK by Lauren Barnholdt is NOW IN STORES!
Going away to college means total independence and freedom. Unless of
course your freshman year is taped and televised for all the world to
watch. On uncensored cable.
Sweet and normal Ally Cavanaugh is one of five freshpeople shacking up
on In the House, a reality show filmed on her college campus. (As if
school isn't panic-inducing enough!) The cameras stalk her like
paparazzi, but they also capture the fun that is new friends, old
crushes, and learning to live on your own.
Sure, the camera adds ten pounds, but with the freshman fifteen a given anyway, who cares?
Ally's got bigger issues -- like how her long-distance bf can watch her
loopy late-night "episode" with a certain housemate...
Freshman year on film.
It's outrageous.
It's juicy.
And like all good reality TV, it's impossible to turn off.
IN STORES NOW!
