Hey guys! Today I have some exciting news for any fans of Victoria Scott novels— her next book Titans has an official release date and blurb! Titans will be released on February 23, 2016 and below will be the blurb (and a link to a giveaway for a signed copy of Fire & Flood and Salt & Stone ! US only)… Astrid Sullivan's family can't catch a break. Her grandfather played cards and her dad bet on the Titans--half-horse, half-car that race around impossible tracks. They've lost their home, their savings, and each other. So when Astrid makes some new friends who give her the chance to participate in this year's Titan races, she wonders if it's worth risking everything. She never thought she'd even touch a Titan, and this one is first gen when the models racing now are Titan 3.0s. There's no way for her to win...but with her family slipping away and her dad without work, Astrid can't help but feel like the only person she can bet on is he...

Hey guys it’s Meagan and today I have something SUPER EXITING for all of y’all (especially any Victoria Scott/ Fire and Flood fans). For anyone who doesn’t know, I’m part of Victoria’s street team (or as she calls it, her V-Mafia ;) and she sent us a final excerpt from Salt and Stone to reveal and a link to a giveaway sooooo… I’m here to share this great stuff with all of you! And don’t worry, the excerpt will not spoil anything from the series if you haven’t read Fire and Flood but you still want to read the excerpt; it’s just a fun little scene and I can’t wait to see if your reactions are the same as mine!!! I swallow and stare at him in the dark, my entire body itching to feel his touch. When I see the anticipation in his stance, the way he looks at me as if I ’ m both infuriating and appealing — it makes me feel powerful. But when he takes a step in my direction, that power plummets to some place untouchable. Now I ’ m a seventeen-year-old girl again, standing in the s...

Hey guy its Meagan and today I’m here to review a book by an awesome author, Fire and Flood by Victoria Scott. Tella Holloway is losing it. Her brother is sick, and when a dozen doctors can’t determine what’s wrong, her parents decide to move to Montana for the fresh air. She’s lost her friends, her parents are driving her crazy, her brother is dying—and she’s helpless to change anything. Until she receives mysterious instructions on how to become a Contender in the Brimstone Bleed. It’s an epic race across jungle, desert, ocean, and mountain that could win her the prize she desperately desires: the Cure for her brother’s illness. But all the Contenders are after the Cure for people they love, and there’s no guarantee that Tella (or any of them) will survive the race. The jungle is terrifying, the clock is ticking, and Tella knows she can’t trust the allies she makes. And one big question emerges: Why have so many fallen sick in the first place?- goodreads.com summe...
