Author Event & Giveaway: Jennifer L. Armentrout!!!

I, Crystal, attended the JLA signing last night in Austin and I have been squeeing ever since!!!  I met Jennifer three years ago at the RT Convention and I even got to sit next to her at the Entangled Spoons & Candy party where I received bruises galore, but totally won the big prize.  I never thought she would remember me, but wait for it.....SHE DID!  I totally squeed because I have been a fan of hers for YEARS and our blog has been reading her books since the very beginning so it was just really cool to have her remember me and our blog.  It was definitely a book lovers dream in Austin I tell ya!!

Okay so enough about me what you really want to know is what happened at the event right?!  So I have some information for you, not a lot as I think most of the questions asked she has already answered before.  I do have one BIG piece of news though okay try to contain yourself...

JLA is writing a NA paranormal that will feature Fae!  And she said I quote these are "Not your momma's Fae"!!  Okay squee with me!!!!!!!!!!  This newest development will be published in December THIS YEAR!!!  SQUEE again!!!!!  and will be self published!!!!  The main character is a cross between Alex and Katy and I believe it will be titled Wicked..it could be Wicket though I couldn't quite catch what she said so don't copy that down incase I'm wrong LOL!   I seriously almost fell over I was so happy!!  I love this genre and I think NA needs this.  I'm over all the NA out there at the moment and I think this will bring me back to the genre!

I also met the amazing Kelly from Inkslinger!  She was super sweet and we realized that we have been working together for 3 years!  WOW!  I also saw but was way to shy to meet Mundie Moms.  I love going to these events because I always see bloggers in the wild!
OH and Cora Carmack was at the event too!  She didn't get up and speak, but she was there!

 Highlights:
-We get to see Deacan (I know I did not spell that right sorry!!) Luke and Apollo in The Return which I am very much looking forward to.
-Roth will be back in Stone Cold Touch and Bambi sleeps in some pretty strange places.
-She had no idea the pen poking and the cookie would turn out to be so huge with readers.
-Aiden was her hardest character to write out of the guys and Dee out of the girls.
-She would never leave her readers devastated after reading a series ending book.  She fully believes in a form of HEA. It may not be what the reader or the characters were expecting but she tries to give her characters a happyish ending.
-She doesn't mind killing off some characters and honestly didn't plan to kill off a certain character in Onyx until the chapter was being written. 
-Movie plans and TV plans are progressing but she couldn't tell us anything else about it.
And I couldn't go to the signing without grabbing a signed copy for our followers!  I have one signed copy of Opposition (that also by the way has Shadows in it woot!) for one lucky follower!  Just fill out the form below to enter!
Open internationally!
Good luck!
Opposition (Lux, #5)

  10. Oh come on, I can't choose just one. Stone Cold Touch, Every Last Breath, The Dead List sounds awesome. The Return, Stay With Me, Fall With Me. Of course Opposition. Her grocery list. Let's just go with anything she writes. I love her and can't believe someone can write that many books and have all of them be incredible. Thank you for this amazing chance.

  18. I love all JLA books, that's a fact, so I'm looking forward to all and any of them, but I think The Return and Stone Cole Touch top the list since Roth and Seth are high up on my book Boyfriend list.
