Welcome to the Debut Author Giveaway Hop, hosted by I Am A Reader, Not A Writer, and The Non Reluctant Reader.

The idea of the “hop” is that a whole bunch of blogs plan different giveaways, then link up to make it easier for visitors to find and enter them. This hop runs from Thursday, June 7, 2012 to Wednesday, June 13, 2012. The winner will be announced on Thursday, June 14, 2012.

For this hop, I’m giving away a copy of Cracked by K.M. Walton. It’s a debut novel from this year.

Blurb (from Goodreads):

Sometimes there’s no easy way out.

Victor hates his life. He has no friends, gets beaten up at school, and his parents are always criticizing him. Tired of feeling miserable, Victor takes a bottle of his mother’s sleeping pills—only to wake up in the hospital.

Bull is angry, and takes all of his rage out on Victor. That makes him feel better, at least a little. But it doesn’t stop Bull’s grandfather from getting drunk and hitting him. So Bull tries to defend himself with a loaded gun.

When Victor and Bull end up as roommates in the same psych ward, there’s no way to escape each other or their problems. Which means things are going to get worse—much worse—before they get better…

Contest open to US.
