ExtraNormal
by Suzanne V. Reese
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: YA Sci-Fi Romance
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
When
17-year old Mira Johns travels from the Planet Nreim to Earth, she wastes no
time blowing through a long list of rules, including the requirement that she
stay away from the planet’s teenage males. But when it appears that her actions
have put her new friends in danger, Mira must figure out who is behind a series
of violent attacks before the agency figures out her secret relationship and
sends her back home.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
DESCRIPTION:
They told me it would be easy—just blend in, observe, and keep
to myself. They didn't tell me that failure would cost me everything.
Mira
Johns is pretty much like any other teenage girl. Which is why it's a shock
when she's selected ahead of six hundred other candidates to be the first
student ever to travel from the planet Nreim to Earth. Even though she’s only
there to observe, she’s given what feels like a million rules that are mostly
intended to keep her away from the planet’s primitive males. But after she
finds one mysterious boy too irresistible for stupid rules, she realizes they
have a connection that transcends their two planets—and puts both their lives
in danger. When a series of serious accidents makes it clear that someone wants
to force her return, Mira decides her only hope is to uncover the truth to why
she, the most mediocre of candidates, was actually chosen for this
assignment—before the agency discovers her secret and sends her back home.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
EXCERPT TWO:
The
room circled around us, lights falling across our intertwined bodies. bodies.
The rich musical notes surrounded us in full crescendo. The world and all the
forces pulling against us fell away in that bright, singular moment.
I
imagined him in his bedroom, tormented and desperate, composing and playing
each of those harmonic parts separately, then blending them together. Even on
my world, I would consider him brilliant. I never imagined my love for him
could grow this much.
Jesse
released me when the haunting strains of the music died away. I caught my
breath—and wanted to ask him to start it again. But he would have to walk away
to do that. Another—far lesser—song began. We moved again with our feet
side-by-side, wrapped in each other’s arms, our bodies close. I’d often
wondered why he was so different from other boys—so pure in his love for me.
But with that kiss, I understood that he did long to be close to me. Not in the
empty and greedy way of other boys from this world, but simply to express his love.

AUTHOR BIO:
A
decade ago, author Suzanne V. Reese had a
string of land-mark events—published her first novel, outlined her second novel
(while daydreaming in a university science class), graduated from that
university, became a grandmother, and then topped it all with a late-stage
breast cancer diagnosis.
That
second novel, ExtraNormal, YA speculative fiction, became her therapy during a
long and difficult treatment program. It was published a few years later with
the encouragement of her incredibly supportive friends and family. Despite
little marketing, the book quickly became an Amazon best-seller.
Suzanne
then made the difficult decision to ensure her long-term existence by focusing
on her health rather than continue with the series. Happily, to celebrate her
ten-year survival and end-of-treatment mark, she is releasing an updated
version of the best-selling novel ExtraNormal, this time to be soon followed by
the remaining books in the ExtraNormal Chronicles.
Suzanne
has a degree in communications from Utah State University, as well as
certifications in nutrition and holistic health. She is the founder of Story
Igniters, which offers courses that help readers find their real-life
superpowers. She lives with her husband in Draper, Utah, where she enjoys doting
on her seven grandchildren.

Suzanne ~ Good morning! Welcome to FAB! It is so great to have you here! Congrats on your new book and good luck on the book tour! :)
ReplyDeleteP.S. ~ I just wanted to say I think what you're doing in fantastic - donating proceeds to cancer research and your active role in the holistic healing field!! Thank you for your contribution and helping us hopefully reach a cure one day!!! Also, congrats on your remission and I wish you only good health!! My mom has been diagnosed with cancer twice now, thankfully in remission, but the doctors say it's only temporary... It's not a matter of if she'll get another cancer, it's a matter of when... And I've been diagnosed with over an 80% chance of having at least one cancer in my lifetime... I carry the BRCA2 gene and am tested every six months (actually next week to be exact)... But one day... There WILL be a CURE!!! :)
Bless you Ally, that's such a cloud to live under, isn't it? Thanks for your encouragement, and good luck to you! And yes - there are advancements all the time. I believe a cure will come eventually.
DeleteThanks so much for helping me share ExtraNormal! I'll check in later today to see if there are any questions. It just went live today, so it's a big day!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a good read.
