SCAVENGER HUNT POST

Today, I am hosting Kimberly Derting on my website for the YA Scavenger Hunt, and you'll get to find out about her book THE TAKING, coming soon from HarperTeen!

Kimberly Derting is the author of the award-winning young adult THE BODY FINDER series, THE PLEDGE trilogy, and THE TAKING trilogy. She has also co-authored the new CECE LOVES SCIENCE picture book series with Shelli R. Johannes. Her books have been translated into 16 languages, and both THE BODY FINDER and THE PLEDGE were YALSA Best Fiction for Young Adults selections. She lives in the Pacific Northwest, where the gloomy weather is ideal for writing anything dark and creepy. Her three beautiful (and often mouthy) children serve as an endless source of inspiration and frequently find the things they say buried in the pages of their mother's books or on Twitter for the world to see.

Find out more information by checking out Kimberly's website or find more about THE TAKING here!

EXCLUSIVE CONTENT

About THE TAKING:

The last thing Kyra Agnew remembers is a flash of bright light. She awakes to discover that five whole years have passed. Everyone in her life has moved on—her parents are divorced, her boyfriend is in college and dating her best friend—but Kyra's still the sixteen-year-old she was when she vanished. She finds herself drawn to Tyler, her boyfriend's kid brother, despite her best efforts to ignore this growing attraction. In order to find out the truth, the two of them decide to retrace her steps from that fateful night. They discover that there are others who have been "taken," just like Kyra. But Kyra is the first person to have been returned past the forty-eight-hour taken mark. With a determined secret government agency after her, Kyra desperately tries to find an explanation and reclaim the life she once had . . . but what if the life she wants back is not her own?
