SO… first up, Karina Halle NEWS for you. The lovely Ms. Halle will be releasing her latest addition to the Artist Trilogy on August 20th.  I luurrrvve this series. It’s ridiculously good peeps. To celebrate her upcoming release of Shooting Scars she’s doing something fun and different. (That’s where we come in.)

From Karina herself: “You see, I love talking to other authors. And I love talking about my books. So in August, every day I interview an author who I admire who has also read Sins & Needles and/or On Every Street (and loved it, naturally!) and we dish about Camden, Javier, Ellie and a whole bunch of other fun stuff. The author then shares a promo teaser pic from one of the books (including Shooting Scars!). At the end of the month there is a giant giveaway – one winner will win signed copies of my books, the other winner will win 30 -ebooks!!! That’s right, you can win a book of your choice from each author – how cool is that?“
