Stuck in a Good Book Giveaway and Review of Demons by Heather Frost!

 


The Stuck in a Good Book Giveaway Hop

September 20th to 25th
Thanks to...
I Am A Reader, Not A Writer  
and Valerie from Stuck in Books
for hosting this giveaway!

Time for another giveaway and I'm so excited
for this one!
 I love that feeling of reading
a good book, that you can't put down until you
are finished,even if it's 2 a.m.
I'm offering 2 ebooks to one winner!
This series is one that I can assure you is a winner!
Once you get reading them you won't want to stop.
I am offering one lucky winner an ebook of Seers and the ebook of Demons from the Seers Trilogy.

Book Description:

October 8, 2011 Seers Trilogy (Book 1)
For Kate Bennet, surviving the car wreck that killed her parents means big changes and even bigger problems. As she begins to see auras and invisible people, Kate must learn to trust Patrick O'Donnell, a handsome Guardian, or risk her life being overrun with Demons. She soon realizes that both she and her heart are in big-time trouble.






Book Description:

September 11, 2012 The Seers Trilogy (Book 2)
Kate's life is far from normal. She can see Auras, her boyfriend is immortal, and her powers make her a target. But now that the Demon Lord is hunting her, things are about to go from dangerous to truly deadly. Packed with action, mind-blowing plot twists, and characters you can't get enough of, this is a fast-paced, heart-pounding read from cover to cover.


My Review:
I really liked Seers, but Demons blew me away! The level of angst in this book is at a mind blowing +10! There are many surprises in this book. I enjoyed seeing how Kate's confidence grew as her role as a Seer. The relationship between Kate and Patrick is pure and heartfelt. I loved seeing the interaction between these two characters. I grew to love Kate's Grandparents even more. The Demons are just as bad and  more creepy than they were in the first book.

Heather's writing has been upped to a higher level in this second book. The story moves quickly and there was never a dull moment. This is why I chose this series for this giveaway. I WAS stuck in this book and could not put it down. I was almost late for an appointment because I had to finish this book. Then the epilogue shook me up so much, I sat there stunned for about five minutes not moving! It has been a long time that a book's ending has shocked me this much. This is why I am giving this book a 5 star rating!
Enter now to win this action packed series.  


Now I am happy to share with you an interview with
Author Heather Frost.
--> 


1.How have you seen your writing grow from your first book Seers, to this second book Demons?
                  
 I feel like Demons does a much better job in the suspense area. I feel like the action scenes are stronger, and there’s more of an adrenaline rush as a result. The story feels more intense, and the characters are risking a lot more in the story.

2.Can readers start reading Demons if they haven't read Seers? Or would you suggest they read Seers first?
                 
 I would certainly suggest reading Seers first, although I’ve had several readers tell me that the summary in Demons was sufficient, and they weren’t too lost. However, if you want more background on the world of Guardians, Demons, and Seers—not to mention a better connection with the characters—I would recommend starting with Seers.

3.After you finish the trilogy, what will you write next? Do you already have something in the works?
                 
 I have a few projects in the works, which is part of the problem actually. I need to get focusing on a specific one! But I’m focusing mostly on young adult fantasy, and adult romance. We’ll see what I finally get settled on.  Until then, I’m working on finishing up school, and the Seers Trilogy.

4.What is the main message you hope readers get from reading the Seers Trilogy?
                 
 I certainly think a big theme of the trilogy is discovering that—despite tragedy and hardships—you can still find happiness. What I definitely want readers to get from the books, though, is a good story; new friends, new ways to think about the world, and a fun break from reality.

5.What has been the best part about having your books published?

-->
Seeing my name on the cover is pretty much the most amazing thing, but I love that I can share these stories, these characters. They become so real to me, and I just love being able to share them with other book-lovers.

Thanks Heather for answering my questions! To learn more about Heather go to her site HERE.
