What Did I Receive?

This week I found one book in my mailbox. :D Plus, it's a signed ARC of the book, which made me happy. But I already knew I was getting this book-- I won it from GoodReads "First Read" program.
Here's what I got:

Title: Secret Society Author: Tom Dolby

Publication Date: September 29th, 2009

Publisher: HarperCollins Publishers

Genre: Teen Fiction
Summary:
Secrets, secrets are no fun. Secrets, secrets hurt someone. . . .
An eccentric new girl. A brooding socialite. The scion of one of New York's wealthiest families. A promising filmmaker. As students at the exclusive Chadwick School, Phoebe, Lauren, Nick, and Patch already live in a world most teenagers only dream about. They didn't ask to be Society members. But when three of them receive a mysterious text message promising success and fame beyond belief, they say yes to everything—even to the harrowing initiation ceremony in a gritty warehouse downtown and to the ankh-shaped tattoo they're forced to get on the nape of their necks. Once they're part of the Society, things begin falling into place for them. Week after week, their ambitions are fulfilled. It's all perfect—until a body is found in Central Park with no distinguishing marks except for an ankh-shaped tattoo.
Tom Dolby makes his teen fiction debut with this riveting novel about a dangerous society so secret that once you get in, you can never get out.
Thanks again to GoodReads (you should definitely check out their book giveaways, they have a TON every month!), and also to Tom for signing the book for the giveaway! It sounds like an interesting book, I'm going to start it either tonight or tomorrow, whenever I finish the E-Book I've been working on for about a month (don't ask), and expect a review for it within the next week or two. That's it for this week, I think. I'm going to take a little break.... Until Sunday, when I have another "Want to Read" post up, of course. I know some of you really look forward to it! :D Enjoy! Until Next Time, The Book Queen
