Once Upon a Time: Guest Feature, Review, and Giveaway—“Cicada”!

Belle Whittington is not only lovely but she is also hilarious, so I am delighted to be able to feature her this week on Once Upon A Time as I love her to bits! She is the author of the book Cicada, for which you can see my review here and also enter the giveaway to win a copy. Without further ado, I have you over to Belle. Enjoy!

Please tell us a little bit about yourself.

First of all, I’d like to thank the lovely Hannah so much for having me over to her wonderful blog for a nice cup of tea and a really fun chat! Hannah is such a terrific person to get to know, and we’ve definitely exchanged some fun emails over the past few weeks! I’m really excited to be able to get to know your readers and to share a little about my little YA novel, Cicada, and me!
