The Speak Out Against...Tour Starts Today


Today marks the beginning of the Speak Out Against…Tour. With the recent release of both Outcast and Break from You, Moxie Writers hopes to shine a light on the issues of bullying and teen dating violence.

Today the tour is over at Amanda Fanger's blog, talking about ways to speak out. Make sure you hop on over.
 
As part of spreading the message to put a stop to bullying and teen dating violence, I’m hosting a giveaway for a free ebook copy of Outcast, as well as a paperback copy of Burned by Ellen Hopkins—a book I truly loved and that reminded me a lot of Outcast when I read it. The giveaway is open to U.S. and Canadian residents only. Use the rafflecopter below to enter.
 
 

Noelle dreams of a different life, one where Trina Brockwell doesn’t exist. Trina has bullied Noelle since junior high. Now she’s tired of it. With the help of her black-sheep aunt and a defiant new classmate, Noelle seeks revenge. But vengeance comes with a price: Noelle risks friendship, her first love, and herself to get back at those who have wronged her.

 
 
 
Brooke Myers wants to believe she has it all: the perfect guy, the perfect relationship, the perfect life. She wants to believe it so much that she's willing to overlook the fear, the isolation, and the pain her boyfriend has caused her. She knows it isn't right but tells herself that love isn't always easy. However, when a fire destroys the restaurant during homecoming dinner, she forms an instant bond with the boy who saves her, one her boyfriend wouldn’t like. With the pain of a concussion reminding her of how bad things can get, she is forced to re-evaluate the relationship she has with her boyfriend and face the ghosts that haunt her. Brooke once believed love was all it took…but is it enough? Is it truly love when you've lost yourself in it?
