And, as you can see, A MILLION SUNS got a shiny new redesign in the UK. It's a lot more sci-fi-y, don't you think? It also definitely gets the feeling of being trapped on a spaceship--I love how much of the ship is actually shown on a close-up level. The nuts and bolts just emphasize it even more.
I hate that everyone in the UK had to wait a bit longer for the release than in the US/Canada, but I hope you find the book worth the wait. And I'd like to take this moment to give a shout-out to my wonderful UK publishers at Puffin/Penguin UK. They are fantastic people to work with, and I believe my book is in the best hands there. I'm so appreciative of all they've done help share the book in the UK!
And speaking of some of the awesome ways they've spread the word about A MILLION SUNS, be sure to check out a copy of BLISS magazine and SHOUT magazine soon, and you'll see a little bit of A MILLION SUNS there :) And BLISS magazine is currently hosting a giveaway so be sure to enter by April 12th for your chance to win a copy!
You can also read the first chapter of A MILLION SUNS online at the Guardian in the UK. Click here to be taken directly to the site and the excerpt. And if you're so inclined, you can also read my guest post on the Guardian about why I love writing dystopian fiction.
I'd also very much like to thank all the bloggers in the UK who've reviewed, chatted about the book, and more. You guys are awesome, and I couldn't be here without you. <3

Love the UK cover too! It definitely has a closed-in, science fiction feel to it.
I'm from the UK, but I managed to get a copy of A Million Suns when it came out in the US (thank you Amazon.co.uk!) It was so amazing that I read it in a day because I couldn't put it down! Glad I didn't have to wait until the UK release, but for those who have been patient will not be disappointed.
YAY, I've been desperate to get this book, I know where I'm going this weekend - out to buy your book of course!!! :D
Awesome Beth. So excited to see everyone so excited about your books.
What a cool, shiny cover! Congrats!
