Blog Tour: The Glass Ceiling by Julie LaVoie {Excerpt + Trailer + #Giveaway} @juliemlavoie
Author: Julie
LaVoie
Title: The Glass Ceiling
Release Date: December 11th 2015
Publisher: Frost Books Group
Add to Goodreads
Summary from Goodreads
Pickaxes, grime, and watery oatmeal are all sixteen-year-old Heart has ever known. Growing up in the tunnels, the only breaks in her muscle-aching monotony are the numerous nights spent cramped in a metal box. Stupid runaway mouth. But when strange visions and a hidden map hint there’s more to life than she’s been led to believe — boys being one of them — only one thing weighs on her mind. Escape.
Yet freedom is a tease. Heart merely trades her small prison for a larger one — a transparent dome controlled by the Guardian, an aging leader bent on creating a genetically perfect race. Heart's birthmark on her shoulder? An abomination that carries a lifetime sentence of slavery for females.

Blog Tour:Perfected by Kate Jarvik Birch {ARC Review + Giveaway}
Author: Kate Jarvik Birch
Title: Perfected
Publication Date: July 1st 2014
Publisher: Entangled Teen
Gender: Young Adult, Dystopia, Fantasy
Summary from Goodreads
Perfection comes at a price.
As soon as the government
passed legislation allowing humans to be genetically engineered and sold as
pets, the rich and powerful rushed to own beautiful girls like Ella. Trained
from birth to be graceful, demure, and above all, perfect, these “family
companions” enter their masters’ homes prepared to live a life of idle luxury.
Ella is happy with her new
role as playmate for a congressman’s bubbly young daughter, but she doesn’t
expect Penn, the congressman’s handsome and rebellious son. He’s the only
person who sees beyond the perfect exterior to the girl within. Falling for him
goes against every rule she knows…and the freedom she finds with him is
intoxicating.

Book Blitz:The Only Boy by Jordan Locke {Excerpt + Giveaway}
Author: Jordan Locke
Title: The Only Boy
Publication date: December 17th 2013
Genres: Dystopia, Young Adult
Synopsis
Mary is stuck in Section One, living with three hundred women in a crumbling hospital. She wonders what life was like two centuries ago, before the Cleansing wiped out all the men. But the rules—the Matriarch's senseless rules—prevent her from exploring the vacant city to find out.
Taylor's got a dangerous secret: he's a boy. His compound's been destroyed, and he's been relocated to Section One. Living under the Matriarch means giving up possessions, eating canned food and avoiding all physical contact. Baggy clothes hide his flat chest and skinny legs, but if anyone discovers what lies beneath, he'll be exiled. Maybe even executed.
