FEAR THE REAPER Giveaways: Week 8


On Music Monday of each week for 15 weeks I will post a song and lyrics from the ANGELFIRE playlist (some songs are on my website, some are not) to give you a taste of what ANGELFIRE and its main characters, Ellie and Will, are like. I will also post a contest to win a book from this list (in no particular order). The winner will be announced on the Monday of the next week, when the next contest is posted.

Week 7 winner of the ARC of FIXING DELILAH is Aik @ aikychien at yahoo dot com!
Congrats! I'll email you shortly for your address to send your prize.

Here's the stack of awesome books and swag I will be giving away to YOU.
(Dragonite and little reapers not included)

Week 8 Giveaway

Song: Broken Bones by Rev Theory

I love Rev Theory and Broken Bones is a great song for Will - and Ellie too. I think it's about overcoming an impossible obstacle, going so far way that you're unable to turn back, and understand that you need the support of people who love you in order to keep going. Ellie and Will in Angelfire depend on each other in and out of the battlefield and part of their journey together is realizing how important they are to each other.


Walking a fine line between wrong and right
And I know...
There is a part of me that I try to hide
But I can't win
And I can't fight
I keep holding on too tight
Running away from the world outside

Now I am calling
Hoping you'll hear me
We all need somebody
To believe in something
And I won't fear this
When I am falling
We all need somebody
That can mend... These broken bones

Caught in the confines of the simple life
And I am...
Holding my head high in the rising tide
And I can't win
And I can't fight
I keep holding on too tight
Running away from the world outside

Now I am calling
Hoping you'll hear me
We all need somebody
To believe in something
And I won't fear this
When I am falling
We all need somebody
That can mend... These broken bones

But Oh
Yeah

I'm not coming home now
I know...
I'm so far away
So far from home
I'm not coming home now
I know...
I'm so far away
I'm so far away

And I can't win
And I can't fight
I keep holding on too tight

Now I am calling
Hoping you'll hear me
We all need somebody
To believe in something
And I won't fear this
When I am falling
We all need somebody
That can mend... These broken bones

And I can't win
And I can't fight
I keep holding on too tight
Running away from the world outside

And I can't win
And I can't fight
I keep holding on too tight
Running away from the world outside

Ohhh I cannot wait.
Those were perfectly chosen lyrics in that song, which looked great by the way. From the snippets of Angelfire I have been on the net, Angelfire looks beautiful ;)
Congrats on the soon to be released!
