Vengeance Road Round-up!
It’s here! Vengeance Road by Erin Bowman is here!
If you all haven’t heard me gush about this book yet, then you’re about to. This book is SO incredible and SO unlike anything out there.
You’re immediately thrown in the insanity from page 1, when we meet Kate — a gun-toting gal out for revenge against the criminal gang who killed her pa. This book has all the elements of a classic western: dusty, dry landscape; treasure in the mountains; deep dialect; Apache tensions; and a morally gray group of heroes and anti-heroes.
In classic Bowman style, the pacing is fast and the prose is sure to gut you in its simple power. Plus: KATE! What a heroine with a lot to learn.
You’ll have to find out if she does learn — or if she does win her vengeance in the end.
To celebrate this book’s release, I thought it’d be fun to round up (western style!) some pics of Vengeance Road across the web!
And if you SHARE your own picture with the hashtag #VRRoundUp, you’ll be entered to win a round up of other books!
Here’s my own pic (and I’ll share another once my hardcover arrives!):
Here’s what you can win!
Signed & Personalized Vengeance Road (of course!)
Signed & Personalized ARC of Truthwith by yours truly
Signed & Personalized ARC of Passenger by Alexandra Bracken
Signed & Personalized ARC of Riders by Veronica Rossi
Signed & Personalized hardcover of The Orphan Queen by Jodi Meadows
Signed & Personalized hardcover of Queen of Shadows by Sarah J. Maas
Yeehaw! (Or so the awesome VR Posse would say!)
Now: All you have to do to be entered to win is share a link in the comments section to your #VRRoundUp picture!
And stay tuned for the winner, which will be chosen RANDOMLY on 9/15/15.
(Also: because of the SCALE of this giveaway, I’m afraid it’s US only! I am so sorry!! I have to think about my pocketbook here!)
Finally — in case you haven’t yet purchased your copy and want to participate in the #VRRoundup, here are some links to buy:






HAPPY BOOK BIRTHDAY, ERIN! And remember everyone:

Wow what a great giveaway, I don’t think I’ve ever been more disappointed to not live in the US haha! I’ve heard so many great things about this book, and I think your endorsement may have just pushed it to the top of my must-read list – sadly it doesn’t seem to have been released in the UK yet 🙁

So I *finally* have a moment to comment on this…
THANK YOU, Sooz. Thank you so much. Thanks to you, and of course to Alex and Veronica and Jodi and Sarah, too. I totally ugly cried when the #VRRoundUp tag crossed my twitter feed yesterday, and yes, Baby Bowman really *was* offering me her toys because she thought I needed cheering up. This is so kind, so thoughtful, and I’m just really lucky to have such supportive, wonderful friends. Scrolling through the below pics made me smile like crazy. (Thank you to everyone who has picked up a copy, and to the VRPosse who kept this secret… I love you all!!)

This book was definitely near the top of my wishlist – but after all this amazing praise I just couldn’t wait! Then I found out it got delivered a day early and it’s definitely my next read. Until then I’ll let it sit beautifully next to an appropriately thematic lantern I made. =D

I pre-ordered VR, but I’m just now about to start it because I had way too many reviews due at once! But I’m so happy to finally do this thing!! Here’s my pic of VR in the wild — or rather, on my cozy blanket on my cozy bed in my cozy house, no true “wild” anywhere to be found…. 😉
