I'm taking a break from promoting our new book site, BooKrushed, (opps... I did it again!) today, because I have something very important to talk about.
The date is 1/11/11, which, under normal circumstances would be just a regular day in January. However, today isn't any regular old day. Today is the day I finally get to get my hands on a copy of Across the Universe! And you just don't know how excited I am about that!
In order to help spread the word (as if there was anyone who didn't already know) about the release of Beth Revis's (blog & Twitter) debut novel, I, along with many other fellow bloggers teamed up with Penguin (Penguin Twitter & Facebook) to bring you a bunch of ATU goodies you won't want to miss!
So, just sit back, relax and let the good ship Godspeed take you on one super fun and exciting journey!
Today I'm pulling out all stops. And to begin this journey I'm going to give you a io9 EXCLUSIVE! If you really can't wait until you get off of work/school to begin reading, just visit this link and you can start reading Across the Universe now! (Just try and make it look like you're doing important stuff when you boss/teacher walks by! Don't you love how interchangeable that sentence is? )
At exactly 11:11 AM io9 will post an 111 page excerpt from Across the Universe. But you better hurry, because the freebie read only lasts until 11:11 PM.
Click here to read the io9 111 page excerpt from Across the Universe!
That's not all the exclusives we have for you today, though. Below we have the official, exclusive, never before seen author video from Beth Revis.
And the official Across the Universe trailer.
Phew. Are you tired yet? I certainly hope not because today the Across the Universe website is being launched. And I've heard there are all sorts of cool things to explore, namely the Godspeed itself.
So be sure to check it out! And if you haven't gotten enough of Across the Universe in one sitting, head over to ATU's facebook page where you're sure to meet tons of super awesome people who are just as excited about ATU's release as you are!
And if you can't stomach getting out to buy your copy today, just stay in your pjs and order it here!
I hope you enjoyed your journey on the Godspeed today! See you guys later!
Hi! I'm Kim, and I'm so excited you stopped by!

Congrats to Beth, and I love how she says she took the small towns and wrapped them in steel in her interview!
Hurray! It's like Christmas today, ya know?! :-)
Wow, my hub's birthday is coming up. I think I deserve a present :)))
Best wishes to Beth on the launch of her book!
How have I not heard about this book?? Sounds awesome! I love how they're pulling out all the PR stops! Cool!
It's next on my TBR list! I can't wait.
Eeeeep I can't wait for my copy to arrive! (Stupid amazon, it's saying it won't arrive until the 18th. Woe is me!)
I'm on page 58 and loving it so far. How great of you to give Beth a whole blog post!
Excited for Beth. Thanks for sharing the goodies!
Have a great week,
Karen :)
Wow... that book sounds really neat! What concept to take a small town, wrap it up in a ball, and throw it into the sky. ;-)

Yay! Big congrats to Beth on this! I've heard so many good things about the book.
This book has spread like wild fire through the blogsphere
I'll have to look for that book. Congratulations to her!
Ahk! I thought the release was next month! Gotta go!
This sounds like an interesting book to have...and even though I have piles and piles of TBR, I'm still going to get one. :)
I love Beth, loved the book, and Oh my word, so cool to see her in her video. So happy for Beth!
Congratulations to Beth - this is so exciting!
