“Intense and absorbing, Skylark transported me to a world of magic and danger unlike anything I’ve read before. Dark, original, and beautiful, this is a novel you don’t want to miss.” — Veronica Rossi, author of Under The Never Sky
You know you want to win a copy of Meagan Spooner’s amazing debut SKYLARK–it’s the book that landed Meg multiple offers of representation, ended up at auction, and now it’s been selected to feature on the prestigous BEA Young Adult Buzz Panel, as one of the titles that everyone will be talking about this Fall! You all know I adore Meg’s writing–it’s one of the many reasons I co-authored THESE BROKEN STARS with her. In SKYLARK, she totally lands it. This book rocks, simple as that.
Vis in magia, in vita vi. In magic there is power, and in power, life.
For fifteen years, Lark Ainsley waited for the day when her Resource would be harvested and she would finally be an adult. After the harvest she expected a small role in the regular, orderly operation of the City within the Wall. She expected to do her part to maintain the refuge for the last survivors of the Wars. She expected to be a tiny cog in the larger clockwork of the city.
Lark did not expect to become the City’s power supply.
For fifteen years, Lark Ainsley believed in a lie. Now she must escape the only world she’s ever known…or face a fate more unimaginable than death.
In Meagan Spooner’s compelling debut, magic, technology, and human frailty collide in a brilliant new world.
I know, right? Awesome. And right now the very first advance reader copies are up for grabs!
You can head on over to NetGalley and put in an application for an e-galley, but perhaps you’d like to try your hand at winning a copy of your very own, to have and to hold and keep under your pillow at night?
The site you seek is The Story Siren! Check out an interview with Meg and enter to win one of three ARCs, or shimmy on over to Pub(lishing) Crawl for an exclusive look at the book’s first pages, and the chance to win an ARC of your own in an international competition!
But hurry, there’s only a few days left on both competitions!


Definitely awesome, and I’d love to win one! I’m on my way to check it out.
Hi Amie. Everyone’s so busy with the A-Z, lol! Megan’s book sounds awesome and I feel I know her and her story. How great.
