Ooh me! I actually heard of this one before this program! :)yeshellothisisme@gmail.com
(Kindle works on a Kindle app on a computer right? That's all I've got)
If we have to post on Smashwords, does that mean it's available on smashwords? I'd prefer that if possible but if not I'll still take Kindle!

It's being gifted through Amazon for Kindle. It's not a mobi file. Since you have the app, you have an Amazon account.
Disregard Smashwords. Going to edit that out.

Deadline for review is 11:59pm EST on 7/30/13 (July 30th). There are way too many reviews still waiting to be done on this book.
Heres my review, which I have also left on the sites the author requested. http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/...
Chris, I am really sorry for this review, I never ever give review like this, but I struggled with it. Sorry.
Deadline is in 4 1/2 hours and there's still a handful of reviews that need posted.
My review: http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/... and I have also posted in Amazon. I'm just waiting for it to be published. Thanks again!!

★ 2013 IndieReader Summer Book Pick (Coming of Age)
★ 2013 SF Weekly Summer Book Pick
One part Gatsby, one part John Green, and one part Lana Del Rey... The perfect summer cocktail.
"The easy life is sometimes the hardest life of all." The words rang false to seventeen-year-old Charlie Middle when he first heard his cousin Maisey utter them, between sips of her gold-flaked martini. But by the end of his summer in California, they were among the truest
words he had ever heard.
Such Great Heights is a retelling of The Great Gatsby, by way of Social Network and Less Than Zero. Author, Chris Cole, puts a millennial wardrobe on the Jazz Age classic, mashing up the styles and imagery of Brett Easton Ellis, F. Scott Fitzgerald and John Green into a new and timely voice.
We are offered a ringside seat for the impossible love story of kid billionaire Joss Stember and heiress Maisey Landing. Told in heartbreaking detail through the eyes of Charlie, we watch these young lovers as they fight against the ceaseless waves of the past in a passionate attempt to make their way toward the shores of the present. Battling their own demons, and the demons that seem to prey upon them at every turn.
Through the lens of recently graduated Midwest teen, Charlie Middle, we are afforded a rarefied glimpse into a lifestyle that is usually kept under lock and key. Charlie's innocent summer internship in Silicon Valley quickly morphs into a crucible of excess and intrigue amidst the one percent of the one percent--fraught with star-crossed lovers, million dollar cars, 24-hour parties, high-tech billionaires and a pageantry of excess that would have put Sodom and Gomorrah to shame, let alone East and West Egg.
Such Great Heights is a novel for the Instagram generation, a generation for whom nostalgia is a stylish accessory and instant messages are sacred texts.
