Book Spotted!!

Guess what I saw last night (and thank you, Barnes and Noble!!)...

I can't believe it! It's real! It was just so amazing to see it there with all the other books.

It's Here!!

I can't believe Low Red Moon is officially out today--whee!!! I'm totally going to go to my local bookstore later to see if they have it!

If they do, I'll be back with pictures...

Release day YAY!!

cover photos!!

I got a finished copy of Low Red Moon in the mail yesterday, and the cover--oh, the cover! It's so beautiful--a lovely, deep, dark red foil that manages to grab your eye and catch the light. And the title is embossed! I feel very fancy, and it is a lovely feeling indeed :-)

I know a lot of you have been wondering what the cover looks like, and although these pictures don't really do it justice, they do give you a hint of both the cover's depth of color--quite frankly, it almost looks 3-D, it pops that much!--and it's overall awesomeness. (You can click on the photo to see much larger versions of the photos here)

Also, the interior? Gorgeous! Two-tone, and with none of the errors (or tiny type) that littered the ARC, as well as some changes....

Now--picture time!!

shows the color depth

foil! also, lovely embossing!

the back--the photo doesn't do justice to the trees at the bottom...

dear, Kirkus--I LOVE you!

Kirkus, the review journal noted for its refusal to sugar-coat anything, has reviewed Low Red Moon. To say I am over the moon (!!) by the review is an understatement.

Here it is:

"Devlin breathes new life into a format that’s lately verged on self-parody by wrapping her shy-teenage-girl-and-supernatural-male love story in an overarching tragedy. After Avery Hood is discovered with the mutilated bodies of her parents but no memory of what happened to them, her grandmother, Renee, who lives in the town outside the forest where Avery was raised, takes her in. Avery wants to help track down her parents' killers, but all she can recall is a flash of silver. Although Ben, a new student at her school, fascinates her, his silver eyes are disturbing--especially when she realizes he’s a werewolf.  As their powerful mutual attraction and Avery's mysterious connection to the forest grow, the menacing evil stalking her draws closer.  Pleasingly concise for this overwritten genre, the story derives its power and authenticity at least as much from its well-observed study of grief as from the intense love story. Intriguing characters and a suspenseful plot that unfolds with elision and restraint add up to a promising series opener." -- Kirkus


I am off to be shocked and happy...
