About this author

As a child, Angela Corbett’s most prized possession was a set of read-along books. She used to follow along with the narrator on the stereo and dream of when she would be able to read by herself. Her childhood reading habit led her to consider her future career. However, after consulting with her parents, she realized she had already exceeded hobbit height and since fairies and dragonslayers were tricky jobs to get, she decided she wanted to create worlds of her own. She started writing poetry in elementary school and worked as a journalist in high school and college, but could never leave her love for writing fiction behind.

She is a graduate of Westminster College where she double majored in communication and sociology. She has worked as...more


I just want to say thank you to everyone for their concerns about my sister, Natasha. My family and I were overwhelmed by the support, thoughts, prayers, and love from all over the world. The positive energy made a huge difference! It really helped Natasha keep her spirits up. We read the comments on my blog post, Twitter, and Facebook page to her. It meant the world to her that so many people,... read more »

“His eyes were warm as he gazed at me. “I would do anything for you, don’t ever forget that.” Emil moved closer, gently tucking the rose behind my ear. The floral scent perfumed every breath I took as Emil brushed his thumb lightly over my lips. “Evie, I lost you once, I won’t
lose you again. Even if it takes a thousand years to earn your trust and win you back, I’ll do it. You’re the only person in my life who matters.
You’re the only person who ever has. I love you. Emil”
Angela Corbett, Eternal Starling

“For me . . .” the words seemed difficult for Alex to find, “getting to stay with you, to spend more time with you . . . to love you the way
you should be loved, it’s all I live for.”
Angela Corbett, Eternal Starling

“ Alex moved closer to me, never taking his eyes from mine. “What if your eternity doesn’t start when you die?” he asked carefully. “What if your eternity has been going on since before you were born?”
I stared at him with a blank face, wondering what drugs he was on. ”
Angela Corbett, Eternal Starling

I have been hunting all my local bookstores to locate your book, but sadly I can't find it :'( Any idea where I can find a copy?"


Hi Gillian,

I'm so sorry you haven't been able to get a copy yet! Foreign rights for the book haven't been sold, so it's not available in South Africa. My publisher is in the process of setting up a distributor, and once that happens, you should be able to get it through bookdepository.com. Other than that, it's available as an ebook on Amazon and barnesandnoble.com. I'll let you know when it's available on bookdepository. Again, I'm sorry you haven't been able to get it. :(

I haven't read it. Thanks for the tip!


message 9: by S.L.

S.L. I started reading The Den of Shadows quartet by Amelia Alwater-rhodes. Have you read it yet?

So far I fight rather dull. It paces the same way Fallen by Lauren Kate did. its like get to the good part already. I wouldnt recommend it if you havent not read it, it is not worth the fours days spent so far.


Melissa Linger Cover LargeIn Maggie Stiefvater's Shiver , Grace and Sam found each other.  Now, in Linger, they must fight to be together. For Grace, this means defying her parents and keeping a very dangerous secret about her own well-being. For Sam, this means grappling with his werewolf past . . . and figuring out a way to survive into the future. Add into the mix a new wolf named Cole, whose own past has the potential to destroy the whole pack.  And Isabelle, who already lost her brother to the wolves . . . and is nonetheless drawn to Cole.

At turns harrowing and euphoric, Linger is a spellbinding love story that explores both sides of love -- the light and the dark, the warm and the cold -- in a way you will never forget.


Comes out in stores everywhere July 20th. Pre-order here .

Enter to win an advanced review copies of LINGER, Sisters Red , The Dead-Tossed Waves , and The Replacement on Maggie's blog.

Thanks for reading it for me! I definitely needed your perspective! I knew your opinion would tell me a lot since you are such a big YA fan and you love books that I felt were similar to mine. I'm so happy you liked it and took the time to read it for me! :) I'm reading chapter 18 of your book right now and can't wait to find out more about Seth!

Hmmm...it depends on how busy I am and how much I like a book. If it's a book I really like, I'll usually read it in a day or two. I read at least four books every two weeks though...reading is how I bribe myself to exercise. :) I read more than that each week if I have time, or if the book draws me in and helps me procrastinate my own writing and editing. LOL

And thank you for all the nice things you say about me! I loved your comments on my manuscript and can't wait to see what you think of the end...especially after reading your comments about chapter 15. :)
