Sorry for quality, it was the best I could do.


Yes! My very first quote in a book! I am SO chuffed! It never entered my mind that something like this could ever happen from blogging when I first started, so I'm just over the moon that it has!

So I'm a pretty happy girl this week!

    AtenRa - Oh my god, thank you so much! I really appreciate it! Wow, that's just so cool, thank you!

    Sophie - Thank you! I'm looking forward to Almost True. Not sure about Linger as I wasn't such a fan of Shiver, but I'll give it a go.

    Jo, I guess I never really comment but I would wish to congratulate the quotes in the books. I also recently had my first here in Brazil, and only those who have seen your name and opinion on the cover of a book knows the thrill.
    A further hit as Fallen.

    I didn't like Shiver, so I'm not sure if I'm going to like Linger either. I may give it a go though.
