I just noticed there is a Goodreads Giveaway going on right now for Evil Genius, here: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... Please sign up! I'd love it if people actually interested in reading this novel won a giveaway, vs. people who sign up for every giveaway offered because they like the idea of "free book" ... It's a good long giveaway...28 days~! |

“I begin to understand what a gift I've been given, to have been chosen for this task. The truth overwhelms me, and humbles me.
