Leap Into Books Giveaway Hop



Welcome to the Leap into Books Giveaway Hop, hosted by I Am a Reader Not a Writer and Jinky is Reading.


For my giveaway I'm giving away Don't Breathe a Word by Holly Cupala and You Against Me by Jenny Downham, two wonderful and thought-provoking YA contemps.  Simply fill out the Rafflecopter below, all that is required is the name and email.  Open to US/Canada only.


Don't Breathe a Word by Holly Cupala
Joy Delamere is suffocating...

From asthma, which has nearly claimed her life. From her parents, who will do anything to keep that from happening. From delectably dangerous Asher, who is smothering her from the inside out.

Joy can take his words - tender words, cruel words - until the night they go too far.

Now, Joy will leave everything behind to find the one who has offered his help, a homeless boy called Creed. She will become someone else. She will learn to survive. She will breathe... if only she can get to Creed before it’s too late.

Set against the gritty backdrop of Seattle’s streets and a cast of characters with secrets of their own, Holly Cupala’s powerful new novel explores the subtleties of abuse, the meaning of love, and how far a girl will go to discover her own strength.

You Against Me by Jenny Downham
If someone hurts your sister and you're any kind of man, you seek revenge, right? If your brother's been accused of a terrible crime and you're the main witness, then you banish all doubt and defend him. Isn't that what families do? When Mikey's sister claims a boy assaulted her at a party, his world of work and girls begins to fall apart. When Ellie's brother is charged with the crime, but says he didn't do it, her world of revision, exams and fitting in at a new school begins to unravel. When Mikey and Ellie meet, two worlds collide. Brave and unflinching, this is a novel of extraordinary skillfulness and almost unbearable tension. It's a book about loyalty and the choices that come with it. But above all it's a book about love - for one's family and for another.

I recently read THE GATHERING STORM (The Katerina Trilogy, Vol 1) by Robin Bridges and OMG, it was fabulously written! I was completely captivated in the story and couldn't put it down!

A close 2nd would be THE FAULT IN OUR STARS by John Green. I don't think this choice does not need an explanation ;)

Thanks for this giveaway opportunity,

- Megan
