Giveaway & Quickie Q&A: CIPHER by Cindi Madsen!



Today I have a quickie Q&A (like, super quicky) with author Cindi Madsen, and a giveaway of her latest book, Cipher! I got to ask Cindi one question, and I asked:
Q: If you could introduce one of your characters to any character from any OTHER book, who would you introduce and how would it go down?
And the answer?
A: Ooh, awesome question. I’d probably say I’d introduce Summer to Liv, from All the Broken Pieces. They both struggled a bit with the high school scene and I think they could understand each other and the weirdness each of them has had in their lives.

So I’d say that Summer and Troy would go to see a band and they’d meet Liv and Spencer. They’d talk about the music, realize they all had a lot in common, and things would grow from there.
See? Super-quicky! And now for the:

****GIVEAWAY****

ABOUT THE BOOK:
CIPHER by Cindi Madsen
Get It | Add It
Fantasy/Paranormal, 325 pages
Published July 22nd 2013
Summer Davis sees deaths before they happen. She attempts to live a normal life by focusing on the dance team and her quarterback boyfriend. But then the way-too-cheery Angel of Death shows up and tells her she’s a Cipher—a person chosen to help people who are going to die resolve problems with their loved ones. Ashlyn Moore, one of Summer’s classmates, is going to die, and she needs Summer’s help before that happens.

It’s nearly impossible to get through to Ashlyn, who surrounds herself with chess nerds and geeks and makes it clear she doesn’t want to be friends. Desperate to complete her Cipher task before it’s too late, Summer turns to Troy, the guy who’s always been there for her and one of the few people she can trust. With his help, she makes progress. In fact, the closer she gets to Ashlyn and her friends, the more she feels like she’s finally found where she belongs.

As the clock starts running down on Ashlyn’s life, Summer decides to change her objective. She’s going to save her new friend before it’s too late—even if it means messing with fate.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
Cindi Madsen sits at her computer every chance she gets, plotting revising, and falling in love with her characters. Sometimes it makes her a crazy person. Without it, she’d be even crazier. She has way too many shoes, but can always find a reason to buy a new pretty pair, especially if they’re sparkly, colorful, or super tall. She loves music, dancing, and wishes summer lasted all year long. She lives in Colorado (where summer is most definitely NOT all year long) with her husband and three children. She is the YA author of CIPHER, DEMONS OF THE SUN & ALL THE BROKEN PIECES, and the adult author of FALLING FOR HER FIANCE, ACT LIKE YOU LOVE ME and CINDERELLA SCREWED ME OVER.

  4. I like the concept of having folks who are, essentially, counselors for the soon-to-be-departed. And as far as changing Fate, well, any Greek chorus can tell you how that usually turns out...I can't wait to read it!
