Cover Reveal
Roman Holiday by Ashelyn Poston
I am so happy to be doing this cover reveal today ! I met Ashelyn briefly at BEA last year, while resting my feet from all the standing. She wrote her blog down on a folded Post-it and afterwards I started following her writing journey on her blog, read some of her Wattpad and now here I am with the cover reveal for her debut novel, Roman Holiday. I love the pop of pink and the intense eye action on the cover !

This doesn’t include bonus scenes Clare posts on her website and the characters tweets.…
I was all set to spend the weekend reading through my giant TBR Book Pile of Shame when Kat told me about a conversation on Twitter between It’s A Hardcover Life and Reading Teen about a signing with Kami Garcia in Bethesda, Maryland.
I was so excited ! Reading Beautiful Creatures is what got me back into reading YA and what eventually led to starting this blog.
