But don't despair! There are LOTS of other tour sites you can participate in. I made a post about them a few months ago on my personal book blog, hope you find some you like!<br />

We now only have 2 active tours, and both of those will probably end this month.<br />
<br />
There's nothing that can be done or said to stop it, I apologize. We weren't getting many/any donations. And those that we <em>were</em> getting, people weren't signing up for.<br />
<br />
Who knows? Maybe we'll come back in April-ish, when school is over. But as of right now there are PLENTY of other tour sites y'all can participate in that are FAR more active and organized than this one.<br />
<br />
Good luck, and happy holidays.<br />

<strong>Summary</strong> (jacket flap):<br />
<blockquote>A century after 9/11, in a high-tech, high-security world, magic is the last thing on anyone's mind. Something bad is happening. Trees are dying. People are getting sick. Fifteen-year-old Kelsa's father died from cancer--a particularly aggressive case, the doctors said. Science has no answers. Then Kelsa meets a boy. He's the most beautiful boy Kelsa's ever seen, but he's also very strange. He claims to be Raven, the mythological creature. He keeps going on about magic and an impending ecological disaster and that Kelsa must help him save the world. Maybe he'd crazy. Or maybe he's telling her truths people have forgotten. And maybe she should help him, even if doing so means risking her own life.</blockquote><strong>NOT ENOUGH INTEREST.

<strong>Summary</strong> (<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/8571801-solid">goodreads</a>):<br />
<blockquote>Eighteen years ago, a rogue Army doctor secretly experimented with a chromosomal drug on unknowing pregnant women. When he was killed not long after the children were born, any knowledge and evidence seemed to die with him - except for the living, breathing, human products of his work. Almost two decades later, the newly self-proclaimed "open-book" military unearths the truth about the experiment, bringing Clio Kaid and the other affected teens to a state-of-the-art, isolated campus where they soon discover that C9x did indeed alter their chromosomes, its mutations presenting as super-human abilities. The military kids, who come from across the nation and all walks of life, come into their own as lighter-than-air 'athletes'; 'indies' as solid as stone walls; teens who can make themselves invisible and others who can blind with their brilliance. While exploring her own special ability, forging new friendships and embarking on first love, Clio also stumbles onto information indicating that the military may not have been entirely forthcoming with them and that all may not be as it seems... </blockquote><strong>SIGN UPS CLOSED.</strong><br />

As Tabby struggles to escape the evil forces rising out of the land, she watches her young charge choose a different path. He is determined to keep Seldom House as his own.

<blockquote>Being only half-vamp in a high school like Carpathia Night makes you a whole loser. But Danny Gray manages to escape the worst of the specists at his school. Thanks to the genetic treatments he had as an infant, most people assume Danny's other half is human. Which is a good thing. <br />
<br />
<div></div>Ever since the development of synthetic blood – SynHeme – vamps have become society’s elite, while wulves like his father work menial jobs and live in bad neighborhoods. Wulves are less than second class citizens; once a month they become inmates, forced to undergo their Change in dangerous government compounds. <br />
<br />
<div></div>For Danny, living with his vamp mother and going to a school with a nearly all-vamp student body, it’s best to pretend his wulf half doesn’t even exist. <br />
<br />
<div></div>But lately Danny's been having some weird symptoms -- fantastic night vision; a keener-than-usual sense of smell; and headaches, right around the full moon. <br />
<br />
<div></div>Even though it's tempting to live in denial, it's hard to ignore evidence. There's only a month until the next full moon, and Danny's time is running out.</blockquote><b>SIGN UPS CLOSED.

<br />
I have gone through and updated the tours (something I REALLY needed to do!). So here's news on our active tours, retired tours, and lost books.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><strong>ACTIVE TOURS</strong></span><br />
<br />
Guys! We only have 10 tours going right now! That's pitiful. This site is driven by your donations! If you have an ARC lying around PLEASE consider donating it! PLEASE!<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><strong>RETIRED TOURS</strong></span><br />
<br />
I've gone through and marked all of the tours that are finished. Yup. This section is simple.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><strong>LOST BOOKS</strong></span><br />
<br />
We have EIGHT books missing! I know where some of these are, but if you have one of these PLEASE let me know! I believe I have contacted everyone who has these, but have gotten very few responses. If you have one of these PLEASE LET ME KNOW. If we work together to get them out quick, you won't be penalized. Please hurry! Here are the books we're looking for:<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Kiss Me Deadly</span><br />
BOTH of our copies of this book have been lost. I know who has them. If you are one of the people, please contact me so that you can get these back on track.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Forget Her Nots</span><br />
I have contacted the person who has this. It will hopefully be mailed out soon.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Freefall</span><br />
This book apparently never arrived at its last tour participant. The author would like it back, so if you have it PLEASE let me know!<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">This Gorgeous Game</span><br />
This book still has half its tour to go. Let's get it moving!<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Confessions of the Sullivan Sisters</span><br />
This went to hope, who I haven't heard from in months. Dunno if we'll get it back.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The Deadly Sister</span><br />
This may have been mailed out without the sender giving me DC. If you have it, please let me know!<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Sapphique</span><br />
This book vanished. Help anyone?<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">You Wish</span><br />
I have contacted the person who has this. It will hopefully be mailed out soon.<br />
<br />
<br />
Despite all the hard work running this site takes, I really enjoy it. HOWEVER it can't run without your help! Please be sure to e-mail me for next address IMMEDIATELY after you recieve the book. And mail on time. And <span style="font-size: x-large;">DONATE ARCs</span>! We can't run without them.<br />
<br />
Thanks guys!<br />

<strong>Summary</strong> (<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7939963-deadly">goodreads</a>):<br />
<blockquote><em>A mysterious outbreak of typhoid fever is sweeping New York. </em><br />
<em>Could the city’s future rest with its most unlikely scientist?</em> <br />
If Prudence Galewski is ever going to get out of Mrs. Browning’s esteemed School for Girls, she must demonstrate her refinement and charm by securing a job appropriate for a young lady. But Prudence isn’t like the other girls. She is fascinated by how the human body works and why it fails. <br />
With a stroke of luck, she lands a position in a laboratory, where she is swept into an investigation of the fever bound to change medical history. Prudence quickly learns that an inquiry of this proportion is not confined to the lab. From ritzy mansions to shady bars and rundown tenements, she explores every potential cause of the disease. But there’s no answer in sight—until the volatile Mary Mallon emerges. Dubbed “Typhoid Mary” by the press, Mary is an Irish immigrant who has worked as a cook in every home the fever has ravaged. Strangely, though, she hasn’t been sick a day in her life. Is the accusation against her an act of discrimination? Or is she the first clue in a new scientific discovery? <br />
Prudence is determined to find out. In a time when science is for men, she’ll have to prove to the city, and to herself, that she can help solve one of the greatest medical mysteries of the twentieth century.</blockquote><strong>Sign ups CLOSED.</strong><br />

<strong>Summary</strong> (<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7726036-ascendant">goodreads</a>):<br />
<blockquote>Now a fully trained unicorn hunter, Astrid Llewelyn is learning that she can’t solve all her problems with a bow and arrow. Her boyfriend has left Rome, the Cloisters is in dire financial straits, her best friend’s powers are mysteriously disintegrating, and her hope of becoming a scientist seems to be nothing but an impossible dream. <br />
<br />
So when she’s given the opportunity to leave the Cloisters and use her skills as part of a scientific quest to discover the Remedy, Astrid leaps at the chance. Finally, she can have exactly what she wants—or can she? At Gordian headquarters deep in France, Astrid begins to question everything she had believed: her love for Giovanni, her loyalty to the Cloisters, and—most of all—her duty as a hunter. Should Astrid be saving the world from killer unicorns or saving unicorns from the world?</blockquote><strong>TOUR CANCELLED.

All participants MUST READThank you SO MUCH for responding to my cry for help, guys! I got a TON of people volunteer for help. I'm looking over all of your e-mails now, and I'll get back to you soon.<br />
<br />
In the meantime, I have made some BIG CHANGES to 1 ARC Tours. Please read carefully<br />
<ul><li><span style="font-size: large;">We have a </span><strong><span style="font-size: large;">new e-mail address!</span> </strong>My personal e-mail was a Yahoo account, and it was a HUGE pain to have to log in and out over and over again. That's the main reason I was so slow with e-mail. So our new e-mail is <a href="mailto:onearctours@gmail.com">onearctours@gmail.com</a></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">There is </span><strong><span style="font-size: large;">no more Cbox.</span> </strong>I learned that it was REALLY annoying! I just kept missing things. Now, every time you RECEIVE a book, every time you MAIL a book, and every time you need the NEXT ADDRESS you must <strong>e-mail</strong> me at the new e-mail address.</li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;"><strong>The rules have been updated</strong>.</span> Things are a little more strict. I have outlined exact punishments for when rules are broken. Hopefully this will encourage order. <a href="http://onearctours.blogspot.com/p/rules.html">SEE THE NEW RULES</a></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Tours are now open to the </span><strong><span style="font-size: large;">US only.</span> </strong>I'm really sorry to our few Canadian members. But it was just causing too much stress. If you're interested in international tours, you might check out the <a href="http://goodgollymisshollybooks.blogspot.com/2010/06/arc-tours-hub.html">Good Golly Miss Holly tours</a>.</li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">We have a </span><strong><span style="font-size: large;">new participation form.</span> </strong>You must fill out this form in order to participate. If you are on a tour currently, but your name is not on the new form, you will NOT recieve the book. <a href="https://spreadsheets.google.com/viewform?formkey=dG9NbUhmRkltanpDck5HcjJKR0pROXc6MQ">CLICK HERE</a> to fill out the new form. Make sure you have read the <a href="http://onearctours.blogspot.com/p/rules.html">new rules</a> first!</li>
<li><strong><span style="font-size: large;">Points are going to be updated.</span> </strong>I'm going to make a new points list with everyone who signs up with the NEW FORM. Your points will carry over so long as you sign up again.</li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">There is a new <strong>donation form</strong>!</span> This will make donations a lot easier for me! If you would like to donate, please fill it out! You can <a href="http://onearctours.blogspot.com/p/donate-book.html">click here</a>, or click the link at the top of the page.</li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">All of the <strong>tours have been updated</strong>.</span> I have removed all of the retired tours. There are many tours that I have marked as "lost" because people appear to be hoarding them. There are equally many tours where people donated a book and then never mailed it out. I have cancelled these tours. I'm sorry for any inconvenience.</li>
</ul>All right. I think that's it. If you have any questions or concerns you can comment here or e-mail me at <a href="mailto:onearctours@gmail.com">onearctours@gmail.com</a>Enna Isileehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15060181766305720582noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1596207834861165822.post-43246798750824337202010-08-23T18:51:00.000-07:002010-08-23T18:51:02.576-07:00Small Update...Hello everyone!<br />
<br />
I just want to let everyone know that if Enna Isilee or I don't get in contact with you the day you send an e-mail or post in the chat box, don't freak out! Both of us have just started our college classes, so we both just got busy again. <br />
<br />
For those of you e-mailing for addresses, I would suggest e-mailing us two or three days ahead of the scheduled time for it to ship, just to make sure we can get the address to you on time.<br />
<br />
Also, we have many tours right now that are less than five people. If a tour doesn't get five people signed up, it will not run. It takes a lot of time to keep everything going smoothly, and it's hard to keep everything straight with a lot of tours with less than five people on them.<br />
<br />
Thanks for reading!<br />
<br />

Sixteen-year-old Liza's dreams of her society debut are dashed when her parents are killed in an accident. Penniless, she accepts the position of lady's maid to young Princess Victoria and steps unwittingly into the gossipy intrigue of the servant's world below-stairs as well as the trickery above. Is it possible that her changing circumstances may offer Liza the chance to determine her own fate, find true love, and secure the throne for her future queen? <br />
<br />
<div></div>Meticulously based on newly discovered information, this riveting novel is as rich in historical detail as Catherine, Called Birdy, and as sizzling with intrigue as The Luxe.<br />
<br />
<div></div>About the Author:<br />
Michaela MacColl studied multi-disciplinary history at Vassar College and Yale University , which turns out to be the perfect degree for writing historical fiction. She lives with her husband, two daughters, and three extremely large cats in Connecticut . This is her first book.<br />

<blockquote>Phoebe finds herself drawn to Mallory, the strange and secretive new kid in school, and the two girls become as close as sisters . . . until Mallory's magnetic older brother, Ryland, shows up during their junior year. Ryland has an immediate, exciting hold on Phoebe, but a dangerous hold, for she begins to question her feelings about her best friend and, worse, about herself. Soon she'll discover the shocking truth about Ryland and Mallory: that these two are visitors from the faerie realm who have come to collect on an age-old debt. Generations ago, the faerie queen promised Pheobe's ancestor five extraordinary sons in exchange for the sacrifice of one ordinary female heir. But in hundreds of years there hasn't been a single ordinary girl in the family, and now the faeries are dying. Could Phoebe be the first ordinary one? Could she save the faeries, or is she special enough to save herself?</blockquote><strong>SIGN UPS CLOSED.</strong><br />

A terrible fate.<br />
<br />
<div></div>When Brie's sister, Faith, dies suddenly, Brie's world falls apart. As she goes through the bizarre and devastating process of mourning the sister she never understood and barely even liked, everything in her life seems to spiral farther and farther off course. Her parents are a mess, her friends don’t know how to treat her, and her perfect boyfriend suddenly seems anything but. <br />
As Brie settles into her new normal, she encounters more questions than closure: Certain facts about the way Faith died just don't line up. Brie soon uncovers a dark and twisted secret about Faith’s final night...a secret that puts her own life in danger. <br />

<br />
When it comes to e-mail, if I haven't responded in about 6 hours, feel free to send the e-mail again. We hit a snag early this week because I was in the hospital and couldn't answer e-mails. But I'm back now, and so 6 hours is your magic number. Go ahead and e-mail again.<br />
<br />
I should have responded to everyone's e-mails by now. So if I haven't responded to yours, please e-mail me again.<br />
<br />
Also, if you have a book that needs/is ready to be mailed PLEASE let me know. I have a list of who has all the books and I want to get 'em moving!<br />
<br />

<strong>Series:</strong> Horsemen of the Apocolypse #1<br />
<strong>Donated by: </strong><a href="http://www.abookwormshaven.com/">Meaghan</a><br />
<strong>Summary:</strong><br />
<blockquote>“Thou art the Black Rider. Go thee out unto the world.” <br />
<br />
<div></div>Lisabeth Lewis has a black steed, a set of scales, and a new job: she’s been appointed Famine. How will an anorexic seventeen-year-old girl from the suburbs fare as one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse? <br />
<br />
<div></div>Traveling the world on her steed gives Lisa freedom from her troubles at home: her constant battle with hunger, and her struggle to hide it from the people who care about her. But being Famine forces her to go places where hunger is a painful part of everyday life, and to face the horrifying effects of her phenomenal power. Can Lisa find a way to harness that power — and the courage to battle her own inner demons?</blockquote><strong>SIGN UPS CLOSED</strong><br />
