My novel was released yesterday. It is available on amazon.com and through the publisher, Rivershore Books. (If you don't have a preference, the publisher would be the better option.) I ThirstContemporary Young Adult FictionPaperback: $12.99 Rivershore Books rivershorebooks.storenvy.com/products/1506386-i-thirst-by-gina-marinello-sweeneyAmazon www.amazon.com/I-Thirst-Gina-Marinello-Sweeney/dp/0615802125/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1368158112&sr=8-1&keywords=gina+marinelloSYNOPSIS: When Rebecca receives a mysterious note from an unknown source, she has no idea how it will change her life. Twenty-year-old Rebecca Veritas is used to being different, but has never felt extraordinary. She is a Dreamer, living in a world of poetry intermixed with the antics of her unique family and eccentric best friend Adriana. When she meets Peter, a young student from Canada who seems somehow to understand her from the start, her perception changes. With "Intermission", the single word in that mysterious note, as inspiration, the two writers embark on an incredible journey to a new world in the form of a story that will ultimately parallel their own lives. Yet, as the story progresses, events remain ever more shrouded in mystery. When unexpected circumstances in the real world throw their lives in disarray, it will be up to Rebecca to find the true meaning of "Intermission" before the curtain closes on the final act.

I've requested my local bookstore carry it. They said they'd try, but no promises. Also going to request it at my library.

Thank you so much!! That's a great idea, BTW. If any of you are willing to request the book at your local library (or bookstore), that would be awesome. We're trying to get it in as many libraries as possible.
