Gasp! An extra post -- for an extra day: THE EIGHTH DAY by Dianne K. Salerni Cover Reveal

I'm thrilled for my friend Dianne K. Salerni (Pennsylvania resident and author of two YA novels, We Hear the Dead and The Caged Graves)




 because she will be making her MG debut in 2014 with...






The Eighth Day (coming from HarperCollins, Summer 2014)

 Isn't that the coolest cover EVER?  Doesn't it make you desperate to read the book?

Here's a teaser from the flap copy:

 When newly orphaned Jax Aubrey awakes to a world without people the day after his thirteenth birthday, he thinks it’s the apocalypse. But then the next day is a regular old Thursday. Has Jax gone crazy? What’s going on?

Go visit Dianne's blog to find out more and to congratulate her!

    That is an awesome cover! And the premise sounds pretty great, too. I'll have to check it out next year. :o)

    I love your new avatar.

      We all know authors ( at least those published by traditional publishers) don't get to choose their own covers, so I'm thrilled for her. I think it's perfect.

      Yes, it's one of those premises I wish I'd thought of. But I'm happy to know the brilliant author who came up with it! And I think this book will make a big splash.

      Sorry for the tease! I'm just so thrilled for her. And I haven't read it yet, myself, Akoss, so I have to wait like everyone else. Hoping to get an arc as soon as they're available.
