So, just noting that TUYO is one of the ten books my book blogger is moving forward. So it’s not a semifinalist yet, but it’s a … presemifinalist? Antesemifinalist?
What would that be, an antepenultimate finalist?
Anyway, I expect almost everything depends now on the personal taste of this particular book blogger. How stressful!
Too bad the version she got didn’t have the new cover —

Oh good news! I’d been hoping/expecting it would but will continue keeping my fingers crossed and talking up TUYO to anyone who will listen. (The enemies-huddling-for-warmth-in-a-snow-cave scene has sold quite a few copies!)
Repeating that I LOVE the new cover. Will Nikoles be getting a matching one?
Thank you, Mary Beth! And yes, shortly. I should be seeing the rough draft in a week or so.
