The last 48 hours have been amazing for me. I'm humbled and thankful and just so completely in awe of the wonderful YA community. What many of you do not know is the cover for GRAVITY leaked on Amazon Wednesday afternoon. I freaked out, sure that any hope of a "cover reveal" was lost.
Then a few people came to the rescue--Liz Pelletier, my publisher, Stacey O'Neale, my publicist, and Jaime Arnold. Before I could think, a reveal was set in motion for midnight on Wednesday. And it was crazy. I stayed awake until 1:30 a.m., watching in wonder as my cover went live on countless blogs. I won't lie to you, it brought me to tears.
I have since tried to personally thank every blogger that took the time to promote my book, but to further that, I wanted to post as many of the links as I could find here so you could see just how magnificent this thing was. Please find a list below of participating sites in GRAVITY's cover reveal. I thank each of you and wish so much that I could pass around giant hugs--not the fake kind, the squeeze-until-you-can't-breathe kind.
XOXO,
~ Melissa (I totally wanted to type Gossip Girl) < yes, I'm a dork
