3rd Annual
Lucky Leprechaun Giveaway Hop
Co-hosted by Books Complete Me & Author Cindy Thomas
March 15th - 22nd
I'm so excited to get the chance to promote one of my favorite reads last year, Starters, by Lissa Price! The author has generously donated a signed copy of her book OR a $20 gift certificate to her favorite bookstore Once Upon A Time (if US) or alternatively, an Amazon gift card for the same amount if INT.
Goodreads Book Description: Callie lost her parents
when the Spore Wars wiped out everyone between the ages of twenty and
sixty. She and her little brother, Tyler, go on the run, living as
squatters with their friend Michael and fighting off renegades who would
kill them for a cookie. Callie's only hope is Prime Destinations, a
disturbing place in Beverly Hills run by a mysterious figure known as
the Old Man.
He hires teens to rent their bodies to Enders—seniors who want to be young again. Callie, desperate for the money that will keep her, Tyler, and Michael alive, agrees to be a donor. But the neurochip they place in Callie's head malfunctions and she wakes up in the life of her renter, living in her mansion, driving her cars, and going out with a senator's grandson. It feels almost like a fairy tale, until Callie discovers that her renter intends to do more than party—and that Prime Destinations' plans are more evil than Callie could ever have imagined.
