Dissolve Blog Tour: character twitter conversation + giveaway

By -

We are one of today's stops on the final day of the Dissolve Blog Tour hosted by AToMR Book Blog Tours. We are lucky enough to have a different feature today--a Twitter or Text Character Conversation between Cora and her best friend Nessa. Isn't that a pretty cover? We think so. There is also a tour-wide giveaway to enter. Enjoy your Saturday!

Dissolve by Andrea Heltsley

YA paranormal*Paperback, 424 pages and ebook*Published April 4th 2012

Purchase: Amazon | Barnes & Noble 

Everything seemed to be going right for Cora. She had a wonderful fiance, a great best friend and a fulfilling life. One day, a tragic event caused that life to crumble around her. She turned to her best friend in her time of need. They embarked on a search for answers, delving deeper into a web of magic and destruction. The closer they got to the truth, the more questions they had. To Cora, magic was the stuff of fairy tales. Immersed into a very different kind of world, the real storm was just beginning to take hold.

“It felt like I was nowhere yet everywhere all at once. I was invisible and completely panicked. The millions of pieces I had dissolved to drift on the breeze and away from my nightmares. It was kind of like floating weightless in a pool, perfectly relaxing. The warm breeze from the window embraced and soothed me. I let the air current carry me as far as it could through the summer city.”

“Defeated, I closed my eyes and took a few calming breaths trying to relax myself. I pictured the dandelion in the park today and took a deep breath as to blow the fluffy seeds in all directions. I pretended I was light and fluffy and started to feel a tingling in my body. I began to feel as light as the dandelion seeds and soon I felt like mist floating. This time, I tried to keep myself in the room, swirling in a humid block.”


Twitter or Text Conversation: 
Cora: @CoralovesTom
Nessa: @Nessa552

Nessa552: I hope you’re not too hung over to deal with you soon to be monster in law today.
CoralovesTom: Ugh, every day is a bad day to deal with her. 
Nessa552: Point taken. 
CoralovesTom: I do happen to be hung over.  I think my head might explode. 
Nessa552: I am such a devious friend, taking you out to a club like that.  I hope Tom wasn’t too mad.
CoralovesTom: He wasn’t thrilled, but didn’t say much about it.
Nessa552: Good, now I will see you at noon.  Make sure I don’t have to sit next to the monster in law.
CoralovesTom: See ya later.

Reading level: Young Adult Hardcover: 272 pages Publisher: Little, Brown Books for Young Readers (September 1, 2009) Book summary: The terrifying, nail-biting, and grossly intriguing sequel to The Devouring.  It's been six months since Reggie first discovered and fought against the Vours, malicious and demonic beings that inhabit human bodies on the eve of the Winter Solstice.  The Vours still haunt Reggie, but only in her dreams-until one night, when an unexpected visitor turns her nightmares into reality. My Review: Soulstice was the first book I finished for the new year. Holt has created a gripping, realistic horroriffic fantasy with likable characters, a female heroine we can root for, and a truly evil protagonist. I realized this is the first YA horror series I've read and totally enjoyed. Reggie is back, wondering what the Vours are doing in the quiet time since the incident with Quinn and her rescue of brother Henry six months earlier. The peaceful break d...
