EXCLUSIVE SCAVENGER HUNT POST

Today, I am hosting Ann Aguirre for the YA Scavenger Hunt!

Ann Aguirre is a New York Times & USA Today bestselling author with a degree in English Literature; before she began writing full time, she was a clown, a clerk, a voice actress, and a savior of stray kittens, not necessarily in that order. She grew up in a yellow house across from a cornfield, but now lives in sunny Mexico with her husband, children, and various pets. She likes books, emo music, and action movies. She writes all kinds of genre fiction for adults and teens.

Find out more about Ann Aguirre by checking out her website!  You can also catch up with her on Goodreads | Facebook | Twitter.

Ann Aguirre’s featured book is VANGUARD

Amazon | Barnes and Noble | Indie Bound | Goodreads

The New York Times–bestselling Razorland saga from Ann Aguirre continues.

Since the war ended, Tegan has dreamed of an epic journey, so when she has the opportunity to sign on as ship’s doctor, she can’t wait. It’s past time to chart her course. Millie Faraday, the kindest girl in the free territories, also yearns to outrun her reputation, and warrior-poet James Morrow would follow Tegan to the ends of the earth.

Their company seems set, but fate brings one more to their number. Tegan will battle incredible odds while aiding Szarok, the Uroch vanguard, who has ventured forth to save his people. Szarok is strange and beautiful, like a flower that blooms only in the dark. She shouldn’t allow him close, as such a relationship is both alien and forbidden. But through stormy seas and strange lands, she will become stronger than she ever knew.

And don’t forget to enter the contest for a chance to win a ton of books by me, Lea Nolan, and the rest of the Purple Team authors! To enter, you need to know that my favorite number is NINE (9). Add up all the favorite numbers of the authors on the Purple Team and you’ll have all the secret code to enter for the grand prize!

Ann’s got a super awesome book trailer to share!
