To all winners, I have sent you either an email or contacted you via Twitter. Please reply! I’ll assume you want the book signed to you unless you let me know otherwise.
If you didn’t win, no worries – the book will be out on August 25th. You can pre-order now from your favorite bookstore, online, or ask your local library to bring in copies.
If you were hoping for a signed book, I’ll be holding a launch party for the book at The King’s English in Salt Lake City at 7 pm on Sept 9th. If you pre-order from them, I’ll sign the book for you that night. You can also find me at Houston’s Tweens Read Festival on Oct 3, and other events that I’ll be announcing soon.

Yaay! I’ll be sending a Email as soon as possible, but how am I supposed to write my shipping address?
You did it correctly, Mohammed. Congrats!
Thanks for the contest Ms Jen. It was really fun. I will be waiting for this release and I am so excited right now. Hope you can also come and visit the PH someday. 🙂
Thank you, Traci!
Thanks for holding the contest, Mrs. Nielsen! It was so fun, answering those questions and waiting, and waiting, waiting…
Congratulations to all the winners!

THANK YOU SOOO MUCH!!!!!!! I had so much devising an escape plan for the Berlin wall, and loved the excitement of getting selected. Thank you for always doing these contests, Miss Jennifer!!
Can you tell me what your plan was? I really enjoy reading/hearing other peoples ideas, as for me, I had a plan to get these items: a very strong Rope or Wire must be long, and a bow and arrow or a crossbow. Anyways I would tie the wire to the Arrow, and shoot it over the wall( my friend pointed out that I didn’t have an Anchor to hold down the rope so there would be nothing holding it, so decided to not add it in), of course I would need to be somewhere high, but then I would Tie the Wire to me and start climbing!
That is very clever! This is mine: first, I would pull a Ponzy Scheme, which means that I would attempt a long con. I would impersonate a man, and enlist as a guard. I would then work for a while, actually doing my job, and keeping my record spotless, and then run when I had a chance. If I stayed long enough, I would eventually work my way to guarding the back, making it far easier to escape. One would have to be wary of the various weaponry, and positions of fellow soldier to do this, though. Seeing that I am a woman, however this may not pass. Then, I would find someone with a convertible, and a burning want to cross the border. I would then let a little air out of the tires, and remove the windshield. Then, I would drive under the barrier. Lastly, if that didn’t work. I would find the highest point possible, and shoot a chord across the wall, and then hipline with the hope that I won’t get shot. So, that basically sums up what I would do. If I was EXTREMELY desperate, I would try to establish a friendship, or romantic relationship with one of the guards, causing him to possibly help me escape. However, that would be very cruel, and definitely my last, and most desperate attempt.
My plan is in the book! Thanks, Mohammed!
Just like Sophia, I had so much fun devising my plan. My original plan was three times longer than the one I posted, but I didn’t get sent through so I had to re-write it. That was so much fun. 😀
The same fun I had in writing the book, Luke!
I was hoping to win an ARC copy but I guess not. Anyways, I’m waiting for the next giveaway and I think it’ll be the Rise of the Wolf I think. Congrats to the winners though! Have a fun time reading it before anyone else can!
Hopefully next time!
Okay, I REALLY want to read this book!!!!!!! 😀
Thanks, Tori!
Thank you so much! I wasn’t expecting to win, I’m so surprised! I’ve sent my mailing address via twitter.
Congrats to all the winners!!! May I ask whether this book (“A Night Divided”) will come in a hardbound copy? or a paperback one Miss Jen? I hope it is a paperback one (in order to save money hehe…). I am planning to buy one Miss Jen and I am gonna start saving money now in my piggy bank to be able to have a copy when it release in August.
Sorry, Lemuel, it’ll be hardcover, but you can wait until summer 3016 for it to go into paperback, if you’d prefer that. Whenever you get a chance to read it, I hope you’ll enjoy it!
Aw, but it’s okay Miss Jen. I’m gonna double my savings in order to get a copy of it hehe…I cannot wait to read that book. Sorry for being a little bit of stingy haha 😉
GAH! I can’t believe I won an ARC copy! 😀 Thank you so much, Jen, for offering these to us. I can’t wait to read A Night Divided and review it!
Congrats to all the winners. I don’t have luck in any raffle 🙁
Me 2 :'(
If I may ask, what is a “ARC”
From what I know, its a Advanced Copy, but I think i’m wrong
You’re mostly right: Advanced Reader’s Copy. These are the paperback books that get sent to reviewers and bookstore owners before the final book is printed. They’re mostly the same as the final, but may have some different printing on the cover, since it’s intended for those audiences. But I always try to give away the copies I receive to readers.
I got the book today. Thanks again!
Woot! I hope you’ll enjoy it!
My copy just arrived!!! Thank you so much!!!
Woo-hoo! Happy reading!
Got mine a couple days ago. My little brother keeps stealing it. I’m telling him to read the Ascendance Trilogy first.
Ha! Darn little brothers, right? I hope that once you finally get your hands on it, that you’ll enjoy it. And that your brother will give the Ascendance Trilogy a try! 😉
Everyone got there books already!?
As I recall, Mohammed, yours was international postage, so it may take a bit longer. No worries – it should arrive soon!
I just arrived home from holidays to my awaiting book!! It’s so pretty and I can’t believe I have a signed book from you!! I’ve already started it and its absolutely amazing!!! Thanks so much again <3
Thank you, Anna! I hope you’ll enjoy it all the way to the end!
I was really wanting the book.. (somehow I’ll get it)
I hope so too, Dahn Lim!
Mine came in a couple of days ago, I took it out of its package and started reading. Took me 5 hours to finish the book, and the only word popping up in my mind at the moment is amazing. The book was absolutely amazing!
Wow – thanks so much, Mohammed! I am so glad you enjoyed it! (And I’m glad it arrived safely!)
Jennifer was I too late ugh I forgot and missed talking to you
You’re too late on this one, Tim, but there will be more giveaways of other books. I’ll probably do the giveaway for Book 2 of Mark of the Thief after Thanksgiving.
Did your second one come out yet
Book 2 of the Mark of the Thief series is called Rise of the Wolf and will be out on Jan 26th, 2016.
How much is it for a paper back of your new book any give aways?
If your school does a Scholastic book fair, then you can probably buy the paperback there, and I imagine it’ll be around five or six dollars. If not, then this book won’t go to paperback until sometime next summer.
