    Hi Veronica! I was just came home from holiday in Rome and saw Pluto and Persephone at the Borghese Gallery. It's actually one of my favorites - disturbing as it is. Anyway, I can't wait to read your book! Good luck with everything! ~~~ Rae Roberto Peralta

    Looking forward to reading this. Can't believe how hot dystopias are now--it's ironic that such dire topics are bringing so much thoughtful fun to readers...

    Before reading the YA Muses article, I'm going to guess that what the two paintings have in common is...the face the woman is making? :P
    Thanks for the giveaway! I'd LOVE to win an ARC of Under the Never Sky! :D

    My comment didn't show up...I hope that doesn't mean it's being moderated. I'll try one more time just in case.

    I like your new blog! I'd also like a chance to read UNDER THE NEVER SKY a little early. Though if I must, I'll wait.

    Wonderful YAM post today--all week they've been chock full of reminders and inspiration, which is why I keep coming back for more. Would love an ARC (I do have my pre-order all set up on Amazon, but how wonderful to read it ASAP). The UK cover is gorgeous!

    What 'The Scream' and Bernini's 'Pluto and Persephone' have in common is a scream; Persephone is about to be violated and her mouth is poised in an outcry.

    Oh, I can't wait to read it! I remember when Josh sold it, and I feel like I've been following along ever since then. Fingers crossed, but either way, I'm delighted it's now being released during my summer break. Perfect chance to read it straight away!

    & Munch's scream always reminds me of high school, because our principle had a print up on his wall. Make of that what you will, lol.
