Giveaways

Before the Holidays Giveaway Hop

Happy December everyone! Welcome holiday hoppers <3 If you haven’t met me, I’m Colleen, writing as CM McCoy. I write mostly mature teen novels set in Alaska and involving some sort of monster (human or non-human) and an awkward kiss.

About me: I’m an Irish dancer and former Air Force officer living in the Great White North. Though I earned a B.S. in chemical engineering and one in German from Penn State, I’m far happier daydreaming. Fun fact: while working 911 dispatch for Alaska State Troopers, I learned to speak in 10-codes, which I still do…but only to annoy my family. Also, I have one pointed ear. Just one.

I love the Christmas season. I love the frigid weather, I love the smell of scotch tape, and I love this whole spirit of giving and spiritual celebration–it’s my favorite time of year 🙂 And I’ve got a beautiful sterling silver claddagh ring (in the winner’s size) to celebrate this season as a giveaway for my stop on the hop:

This year, EERIE turns one year old, and I was blessed to get a review from Kirkus Reviews. I feel even more blessed that their reviewers LOVED the world and characters of EERIE. Here’s just some of what they had to say:

“…weird and wonderful characters… A charming and inventive tale, with a brave heroine confronting romance and dangerous entities.” – Kirkus Reviews (read the full review)

Hailey Hartley has just enrolled in the world’s premier supernatural university. It’s a school she’s never heard of, located in a town called The Middle of Nowhere, and run by a creature that’s not supposed to exist. But at least she got a scholarship…

When her big sister goes missing, eighteen-year-old Hailey finds only one place offers her answers–a paranormal university in Alaska. There, she studies the science of the supernatural and must learn to live with a roommate from Hell, survive her otherworldly classes, and hope the only creature who can save her from an evil monster doesn’t decide to kill her himself.
