Gateway to Reality by Becca Campbell [Cover Reveal]

Welcome! Today I get to be a part of the Gateway to Reality by Becca J. Campbell Cover reveal! I loved her first book, Foreign Identity and am excited to read this new book when it comes out. The summary definitely has me interested. I hope you all like the cover, I know I do. 

Welcome back Becca, I'm happy to have you on my blog again.


Gateway to Reality by Becca  Campbell

Talented artists shouldn't be waiting tables, scraping by, and living mediocre lives. But that’s exactly what art school graduate Wes Teague is doing.

Then he wakes from a bizarre dream, haunted by the sense that his life isn't real. A harrowing truth presents itself--the real world lies in his dreams, not when he's wide awake.

The dream world he enters each night is rich and vibrant. Chicago appears the same on the surface, but chaos runs rampant as gravity, physics, and other laws of nature become fluid, changing unexpectedly. There, Wes's parents, brother, and sister are strangers. His girlfriend Emily doesn’t recognize him. Suddenly Wes longs to return, to unlearn the truth about his dual reality.

Wes would sacrifice almost anything to get back to blissful ignorance in a false world.

But now he has feelings for the real Emily.

About Becca:

An avid lover of stories that tiptoe the line between fantasy and reality (even when they plunge off one side or the other), Becca J. Campbell looks for new angles on bridging the gap between the two. She holds a special place in her heart for any story that involves superpowers or time travel. Her passion is defying the limits of her own creativity.

Becca's journey into writing began as many of her other creative endeavors do - by daring herself to try something new. The question "what if I wrote a novel?" and some hastily scribbled notes on a church handout were the inspirations that jump-started her first book. Since then, she has written three additional novels and several shorter works.

As the wife of a musician and mother of three young boys, Becca's life is never dull. Whether it is writing, painting or knitting, she enjoys making stuff that wasn't there before. You can find her blog, Inspiration for Creation, at http://www.beccajcampbell.com.

Foreign Identity by Becca Campbell Blog Tour [Review]


Welcome to the Foreign Identity by Becca Campbell blog tour! Today I am hosting Becca on my blog with a review of her book. I am very happy to be part of this tour, especially after finishing this exciting novel. Becca is a wonderful author, and after reading Foreign Identity I am excited to read more of her work in the future. I hope everyone will give her a big welcome and check out her book.


Foreign Identity by Becca J. Campbell
★★★★☆

When the Protagonist’s woke up locked in a dungeon, they had no memory of who they were. They had to work together to escape, which gave them the names Jax and Kel. They navigated their way through a labyrinth of different rooms until they escaped outside. With no knowledge of where they were or how to get home, they adapted to their situation and stayed together for survival. Jax scoured for a way out. With his incredible memory he was able to map the area. He wanted to find out who he and Kel were and why they were captured. The only times they figured things out about themselves was when they stumbled upon things that felt familiar, like the tug they felt towards each other.



Foreign Identity was a fantastic, fast-paced novel; I was surprised when I turned the last page that I had finished the entire book so fast. I had expected it to take me longer when I saw how many pages it was, but that was not the case. I wanted to find out what would happen next, which kept me reading without putting the book down. I always love it when a book can do that.



The author has a fluid writing style making it an easy, enjoyable read. She creates an intriguing story and world that you will get lost in. She creates lifelike characters that you will identify with, which I liked. I also love that she wrote the story with both Jax and Kel’s points of view. I usually enjoy being able to see what the two prominent, and, in this case, two main, characters are thinking. I feel like I get to know both of them on a more personal level this way.



This book was filled with adventure, mystery, science fiction, and a little romance. It was a perfectly balanced combination. Extremely enjoyable. It was different than what I typically read, which made me even more excited that I liked it so much. I would recommend it to anyone who would like to read an interesting adventure.

I received this book from the author for review.

Not The Norm by Becca Campbell


Eden has a dangerous secret.

In a world where GenEns (enhanced humans) are the norm, her own ability is flawed. If anyone found out about the glitch in her genetic code, she’d be deemed a sub-norm, as one unfit to exist in the human race. Her certain fate would be extermination.

She always thought keeping her defect secret was her biggest struggle. That concern vanishes when her life is put in danger. Suddenly, fighting back is her only option, and she’s completely unprepared.

Her only chance for survival is by wielding her damaged power. But fear and painful memories threaten to hold her back. What will happen to her if she unleashes the terror within? (Goodreads)

Teaser Tuesday (3)

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along!


Foreign Identity by Becca Campbell


Cold. Confusion. Fear. This is how it all begins.

Waking up without your memory in a cell and bound by chains is terrifying.

Two nameless strangers, a man and a woman, find themselves imprisoned together. With no memories of their own identities, let alone their captor and tormentor, escape is the only option. The pair faces a bizarre labyrinth of rooms and clues that confuse more than they explain. Every discovery only brings more questions.

Who captured them? Why were they taken? What does their captor want from them? What can the riddles mean?

Who are they?

Lacking allies and options, the duo must learn to trust one another. Mazes, puzzles, and even strange, lurking creatures force them to rely on their wits--and each other--for survival. But survival isn’t enough. They need answers.

Will the answers be enough? Will the truth bring them closer together, or drive them forever apart? Will discovering their identities finally bring them home?

*TEASER* "She wasn’t entirely sure, but she had a strong feeling that at one time she’d been in love with him. Maybe she still was."
