Fierce : Thoughts from Reviewers & Thank you

8/15/2014

0 Comments

 
Yesterday, Fierce was officially released. I want to say THANK YOU to everyone who participated in the release blitz, who entered the giveaway, who spread the word with your own tweets/posts/blogs and by retweets. Seriously, thank you so much!
I am still getting through the blogs that participated. It may take me another day, but I will get to yours!
I thought I would link to a few of be to that have reviewed it. As a writer, I believe reviews are mostly for readers, and aren't my place to poke around in, but here are some snippets from reviewers that participated in the blitz  (link to full review) that I wanted to share. Below is my face while reading these. Love them! 
"Fierce is original and has definitely lived up to its title. I have never read a material like this" -Liza from From I Dare You To Read, 5/5 stars. Read the entire review & post here, 

"Where do I even begin with this book? I absolutely LOVED it. It was refreshing, realistic, heartfelt and powerful. The characters were so well written and brought to life off the pages of this book. The storyline was believable and I stayed up till the wee morning hours to finish this book!... In a world of characters and storylines with needy situations and dependent personalities, this book was refreshing."- From Tina at Typical Distractions Blog, 5/5 stars. Read the entire review & post here. 

 "This is a beautiful story and I highly recommend it to lovers of romance." Sue from BookLover Sue Blog, 5/5 stars. Read the entire review  & post here. 

"...I would highly recommend this book to others, he fact that it was not your typical MMA fighter book drew me in and keep me intrigued until the very last sentence." -Sassy Divas Book Blog, 3.5/5 stars. Read the rest of the review & post here (ALSO, they made some awesome image teasers! Check them out!).

"I love her and Max together."- She Hearts Books, 4/5 stars. Read the entire review & post here. 


And, while this is not from the blitz, my amazing CP and one of my best friends wrote this awesome post. 
"she deals with constructing her identity from the complex and complicated constructions of womanhood, of femininity, of athleticism, and of romance. She's a flawed character and a blunt narrator; she's both strong and weak, and knowledgeable and ignorant, and she can totally kick your ass. Through Tori and Fierce, Kelso gives readers a detailed, realistic, and sometimes unforgiving glimpse into the MMA world. It's incredibly obvious that both narrator and author are passionate about MMA, and the sport is given ample respect and critique." - Bailey Knight. You can read the rest of her thoughts here. 

Thank you all again for helping spread the word. Thank you reviewers for reviewing!

 I TRULY TRULY hope you'll consider reading Fierce and if you do, I really hope you enjoy it. 

As of now, there are a few hours still before the giveaway ends (for a copy of Fierce and a giftcard). You can get to it through any of the release blitz blogs, but also at Inkslingers PR. 

And Monday, I'll have Invicta Pro-Fighter Jodie Esquibel on the blog, so be sure to stop by! We'll talk MMA, her career, and being a women in the professional fighting world.
