Everyone likes a good party, and what better kind of party than one to celebrate a newly released book! Maybe that’s not everyone’s idea of fun. Some might even thing book launches can be a little dull, but I think it’s one of the best kinds of parties! So, last weekend a bunch of people gathered for frivolity and fun to officially launch Immortal Mistake and the re-release of Integrate (2nd Edn).
Those who have read Immortal Mistake will understand the significance of the Jelly Belly theme—and those who don’t should grab a copy and get reading, lol. 😉 There were temporary glow-in-the-dark spider tattoos to claim and games that included “find your word match”, model making, graffiti art, and more.
Themes from the book were segues for each aspect of the party, while reviews and readings (more on that later) set the tone. One activity even sparked a spontaneous Conga line (of two … okay, that one didn’t quite take off). All up, it was a great afternoon that left me feeling grateful for those who made it such a special occasion.
I’ll finish with a partial quote from an online review of the novel, with a link to the full review. 😊❤️
Rennie Parker has not had an easy life …
The story draws you in and you will find yourself willing Rennie to use all his street and computer smarts to save his own life, and that of his family …
This is a full-on, engrossing science fiction story, set in a realistic scenario, with themes of family violence, substance abuse, youth crime, mind control, complex bioethics including violence, as well as challenging family relationships, self-acceptance and self-worth.
