Welcome and hello all you treasure seekers! 






I’m Amber Argyle, author of the Witch Song Trilogy, and my new trilogy which starts this June with Winter Queen (you can sign up for the blog tour on the tabs bar above). 

In addition to the amazing prizes offered by the hunt, I’m also offering another signed copy of Witch Born + an ebook of Witch Song + an eARC of Winter Queen + an ARC of The Elite by Keira Cass (keep reading to find out how!). That’s 4 books on my blog alone!

Also, Witch Born is on sale for $3.99 the hunt. On a personal note, I turn 33 next year, which I’m pretty excited about!

Confused about anything hunt related? Go to the YA Scavenger Hunt page to find out all about the hunt. Basically, there are TWO contests going on simultaneously, and you can enter one or both! I am a part of the BLUE TEAM–but there is also a red team for a chance to win a whole different set of twenty-five signed books!

SCAVENGER HUNT PUZZLE

Whew. Now we’re done with the rules, let me introduce you to Diana Peterfreund! 

Diana is the author of eight novels for adults and teens, as well as several critically acclaimed short stories and a handful of essays on popular children’s literature. She grew up in Florida, and lives with her family in Washington, D.C. When she’s not writing, Diana enjoys taking long hikes with her dog, Rio, reading, working in her garden, watching far too much Netflix Watch It Now, and being addicted to Twitter. Her website is http://dianapeterfreund.com

For this hunt, Diana is featuring her newest book, For Darkness Shows the Stars. Here’s a little more about it:
Fans of Divergent will love Diana Peterfreund’s take on Jane Austen’s Persuasion set in a post-apocalyptic world.

 
In the dystopian future of For Darkness Shows the Stars, a genetic experiment has devastated humanity. In the aftermath, a new class system placed anti-technology Luddites in absolute power over vast estates—and any survivors living there.

Elliot North is a dutiful Luddite and a dutiful daughter who runs her father’s estate. When the boy she loved, Kai, a servant, asked her to run away with him four years ago, she refused, although it broke her heart.

Now Kai is back. And while Elliot longs for a second chance with her first love, she knows it could mean betraying everything she’s been raised to believe is right.

For Darkness Shows the Stars is a breathtaking YA romance about opening your mind to the future and your heart to the one person you know can break it.

Sounds like a fantastic book! Find out more about Diana Peterfreund here or purchase her book here!
