Miss Mabel’s School for Girls by Katie Cross {YA Fantasy} Book Promo

Let’s welcome Katie Cross to the blog to celebrate the release of her YA fantasy, Miss Mabel’s School for Girls, which releases March 27th, 2014!

For me, writing a book involved a lot of staring at a computer screen, slapping the delete button, pulling my hair out, and Pinterest. Oh, yes. You heard right. Pinterest.

The power of Pinterest comes from the images. I always find photos that I want to remember and have access to, so I pin them to a board for later reference.

So, I thought to myself, Hey, I’m releasing my first book, Miss Mabel’s School for Girls. Why don’t I give the readers something to look at in anticipation of the book?

So instead of a boring interview where I talk about how great I am, I’m here today to take you on a visual tour to give you a few ideas of what you can expect to find in this exciting new young adult fantasy novel, Miss Mabel’s School for Girls.

 

There’s a wrought iron fence around the outside of the ancient manor that is Miss Mabel’s School for Girls much like this one. It’s known for creaking in the wind.

 

 

Potion bottles hold oh-so-many possibilities. Witches love potions, and the witches in Miss Mabel’s School for Girls are no exception.

These particular bottles contain a variety of spices and herbs, all of which you can win during the launch giveaway March 27th-30th!

 

 

Miss Mabel loves peacock feathers. They represent beauty and vanity: her two favorite virtues.

 

 

 

Miss Mabel’s School is located in Letum Wood, a lush, expansive forest that hides many secrets. Some of these secrets catch up with Bianca Monroe, our sixteen-year-old heroine, in the dark of the night.

 

 

 

This is another view of Letum Wood as you’ll expect to find it in the summer. It’s lush, gorgeous, and a little on the dangerous side.

 

 

 

A grimoire is a book filled with magical spells, a kind of magical diary passed through generations. This grimoire is available to win during the launch day giveaway! Head over to www.missmabels.com to find out how you can participate.

 

 

Hopefully these photos gave you an idea of the exciting adventure you’ll find in Miss Mabel’s School for Girls! Now, get your Pinterest on and start spreading the word!

About the Book:

Never underestimate the power of a determined witch.

Letum Wood is a forest of fog and deadfall, home to the quietly famous Miss Mabel’s School for Girls, a place where young witches learn the art of magic.

Sixteen-year-old Bianca Monroe has inherited a deadly curse. Determined to break free before it kills her, she enrolls in the respected school to confront the cunning witch who cast the curse: Miss Mabel.

Bianca finds herself faced with dark magic she didn’t expect, with lessons more dangerous than she could have ever imagined. Will Bianca have the courage to save herself from the curse, or will Miss Mabel’s sinister plan be too powerful?

Miss Mabel’s School for Girls is the first novel in The Network Series, an exciting new fantasy collection. A gripping tale about the struggle to survive, it will take you to a new place and time, one you’ll never want to leave.

My world revolves around my husband (who is a major hottie), my Vizsla’s, and the mountains.

I wear hiking boots instead of heels when I need to feel powerful, and on a bad day, I love a weightlifting workout. Actually, I love it on a good day.

I don’t eat bread because my thyroid doesn’t like it, although there are days I miss it. Especially ciabatta. Sweet potatoes are kind of my thing. Cookies too.
