The Fantastic Flying Book Club SIGN-UPS: Timestorm by Julie Cross



Book Addicts!

We have one more FFBC event coming this year. The Tempest Series are coming to an end and we couldn't miss this breath-taking finale! That's why we wanted to save a spot for Julie Cross' books in our Fantastic Flying Book Club. Yes, Book Addicts! In January we would have a Timestorm Blog Tour! *fangirling*

This FFBC tour will start January 23th, and it will end January 28th. The tour will consist of reviews, dream cast (blogger's choice), interviews, guest posts, favorite quote (blogger's choice) and excerpts (blogger's choice). For those who want to do the PLAYLIST of the book, you could do it, too. Just let us know if you are interested. The ARCs will be in digital format (eARCs)

The bloggers who chose to host a guest post will be required to come up with two/three guest post topics to send to the author. The interviews must have 5 to 10 questions. It can be to the author or to a character from the book. Please, do this as soon as possible. 

We would like that if you review the book you will post the review at least on Amazon and on Goodreads. We would also like you to send to us the link of your post so we can have a daily post in our blog directing our readers to your websites.

There will be a giveaway that we will send the code along with the details of the book before the event starts.

Synopsis:

The breathtaking conclusion to the time-travel trilogy that is “both tender and electric” (Publishers Weekly)

The battle between the Tempest division and Eyewall comes to a shocking conclusion in this final installment of the Tempest trilogy, where the need for survival stretches the boundaries of history, both past and future, and the world Jackson once knew is a place forever marked by the detrimental effects of time travel.

As Jackson recovers from his brush with death, he’s surrounded not only by the people he loves most—his dad, Courtney, and Holly—he’s also amongst a few of the original time travelers. As he learns more about their life and how this world began, it becomes apparent that they need to put a stop to Thomas and Doctor Ludwig’s experimenting at Eyewall Headquarters. What starts out as an escape plan becomes a war between time and humanity, between freewill and peace. It’s the battle Jackson was born to fight and he’s not about to back down. Not for anything. Not for anyone.





I'm the author of the YA sci-fi trilogy, the Tempest series (St. Martin's Press). I'm also the author of the YA contemporary novel, Letters To Nowhere. 

But even more importantly than the above, I'm a fan of books and an avid reader/reviewer. Keep in mind, however, that a review is just one person's opinion, one perspective. My goal is to show as much bias in my reviews as possible because this makes it easier for you to decide if your perspective is similar to mine or different. Everyone's tastes are different. I like books with emotion and believability. I don't mind edgy and heavy themes. I also like humor and quirk. I like weird characters in odd situations. 

I have low tolerance for insta-love, flowery sex scenes, or mushy declarations of feelings. Not a fan of possessive/controlling male characters who get the girl in the end. When I recommend books, I always ask about favorite current reads and cater to each person's taste. 

I believe every book plays an important role whether I love it or hate, it's having an effect on society. It's changing, shaping, and molding the future of publishing. Regardless of my feelings about a book, I value the author's time and effort put into creating their work. I only rate books available for purchase (or soon-to-be available) and consider those books as published works and their creators as professionals in their field therefore I treat them as professionals, giving my honest opinion on the work itself and not the person producing it.

If I rate a book and don't provide any written review and you'd like to hear my thoughts, feel free to comment on the review and if I can, I'll explain my reasoning behind the rating. I don't mind authors commenting on any review I post - negative or positive. Also happy to email to discuss Juliecrossauthor (at) gmail (dot) com please alert me if I misled readers or given false information (accidentally of course) and I'll correct the situation as soon as possible.
