Dear Reader,
A long time ago, when I began my publishing career, I had
the opportunity to speak at an SCBWI conference attended by
the
Rachel Cohn. I was so nervous during my speech, because she was in
the audience and I was starstruck. If you had told me then that I would
someday have the pleasure and privilege of being her editor, I would not
have believed you. Now I can say that working with Rachel on the Beta
series was absolutely worth the wait.
Many of you know Rachel Cohn’s work from her beloved Gingerbread
series and her
New York Times
best-selling
Nick and Norah’s Infinite
Playlist,
but this latest endeavor is Rachel Cohn like you’ve never seen
her.
Beta
is startlingly original. You will be swept away by Rachel’s sump-
tuous, alarming vision of a future in which the wealthy lead lives of pure
luxury, and are served by clones engineered to cater to their every whim.
When I read
Beta
for the first time, I was struck by how effortlessly
Rachel tapped into a whole new side of her talent. She drew me into
a world that is at once deeply enticing and deeply disturbing. One of
the most exciting aspects of
Beta
is that it is an epic story—Rachel has
planned out a four-book series. In this first book, you will get to know
Elysia, a character whose vibrancy and resilience make her story feel both
unique and utterly universal. You will follow her struggles, and share in
her triumph when she finds the strength to fight back.
Beta
is unlike anything else I have read. Rachel Cohn’s novel juxtaposes
the ugliness of consumption and decadence with a breathtakingly beau-
tiful landscape, and the innocence of a new soul. I am thrilled to be
introducing this book to you, knowing that you are about to embark on
an enthralling reading experience. It’s one you won’t quickly forget.
Yours sincerely,
Emily Meehan
