Angela Brown has accepted the challenge to toot her own horn for her book, Beacon:
What it's about: For seventeen-year-old Macie Breen, life in The Colony is a daily norm of
being the odd girl out, that is, until everyday predictable slams to a
screeching halt. Forced to the capital city of Bliss, Macie's life becomes a
horrific unraveling as she confronts daunting truths about The Colony as well as
who, or what, she really is.
Here is why folks might like it: Beacon is a YA urban fantasy dystopian, a novel crossing and mashing
genres into something that is both familiar and different. Yet it is also a
journey of discovery. Our lives oft involve some truths we'd rather ignore. The
phrase "ignorance is bliss" stems from this. But in this story, ignorance
empowers Bliss, with few exceptions, Macie among them. Following along as she
steps out on her path will intrigue, excite and tug at your heart.

Hmmm, interesting. Although I'm not into YA fantasy right now, this seems to be worth checking out. Thanks for the review.
Thanks so much for the chance to share about my book. And Superlux, if you get a chance to check it out, it's my hope you enjoy reading it :-0
Another one I'm going to have to pass along to my niece.
Congratulations, Angela!
