Project Tell Taylor Giveaway Hop

Posted by 5 Comments

Michelle Madow’s debut novel Remembrance was inspired by Taylor Swift’s “Love Story” music video. She talked all about it in a blog entry a few months ago, and even sent a letter to Taylor Swift along with a signed book!

It’s been a few months now, and she has yet to hear back from Taylor that she received the letter and book. She really wants to tell Taylor about how inspiring she and her music have been to her, but since Taylor Swift is an international superstar, she’s a little hard to reach. This is where YOUR help comes into play! Michelle is giving away the biggest prize pack she’s offered yet, and the ways to enter to win are by telling Taylor Swift about Remembrance.

The Goal: Get Taylor Swift to Tweet about Remembrance!

Have you yet to hear about Remembrance? Here’s what you’re missing:

Remembrance
Michelle Madow
Released date: July 25th, 2011

Goodreads / Purchase

New Hampshire high school junior Lizzie Davenport has been reincarnated from Regency Era, England … but she doesn’t know it yet.

Then Drew Carmichael transfers into Lizzie’s school at the beginning of the year, and she feels a connection to him, almost like she knows him. She can’t stop thinking about him, but whenever she tries talking with him about the mysteries behind her feelings, he makes it clear that he wants nothing to do with her. Reaching him is even more difficult because she has a boyfriend, Jeremy, who has started to become full of himself after being elected co-captain of the varsity soccer team, and her flirtatious best friend Chelsea starts dating Drew soon after his arrival. So why can’t she seem to get him out of her mind?

Even though Lizzie knows she should let go of her fascination with Drew, the pair of them soon find that fighting fate isn’t going to be easy.

We were asked to write a bit about what inspires us.
What inspires me? My son, who knows nothing but love, magic and the good in people, inspires me to be the best that I can be every single day. When I see his smile, or hear his laughter, I realize how the smallest things in life can bring so much joy. It reminds me to never take anything for granted.

Seventeen-year-old Eva is a chosen one. Chosen to live, while others meet a swift and painful death from an incurable virus so lethal, a person is dead within days of symptoms emerging. In the POD system, a series of underground habitats built by the government, she waits with the other chosen for the deadly virus to claim those above. Separated from family and friends, it’s in the PODs she meets David. And while true love might not conquer all, it’s a balm for the broken…
