Okay, my next blog tour guest is Sarah Cross, whose book Dull Boy debuted on May 14! I'm a sucker for superhero stories, so I'm definitely running out to snag this one up.
Here’s a blurb about Dull Boy:
Superpowers are awesome -- unless you actually have them, like Avery does. There's only so much he can pass off as "adrenaline" before people start to get suspicious. Probably it's best to lie low, so guys in white lab coats don't come to carry him away, to find out what makes his freakish body tick. Who wants to be vivisected? But flying under the radar becomes a whole lot harder when you can actually fly. It's dangerous to be different, so for now he'll pretend to be normal, unremarkable Avery -- a dull boy -- anything to keep his secret safe.
What he doesn't expect is the horrifying truth about where his powers came from, who else might have them, and the madness of one villain's plan to turn this superpowered dull boy into something even more powerful and amazing.
Aaaaaand, a little about author Sarah Cross:

And now, onto the vastly important 3 interview questions:
1--What was the spark of inspiration for this story? Tell us what event, or idea, or dream got this book started.
I wanted to write a YA about superheroes, and I had a title and a first line in mind. Then it was time to sit down and get to work.
2--What food did you looooove getting from the cafeteria at lunch in high school, and why? (or if you didn't eat cafeteria food, what was your favorite brown-bag lunch?)
I don't think I had a favorite food, but I bought a lot of Hawaiian Punch in the cafeteria.
3--What is your absolute favorite part of being a writer?
The mental challenge of putting a story together ... and making the next one even better.
Thanks for coming to my blog, Sarah--this story is going to be awesome!!
