Talisman of El by Alicia Stone took me by surprise. I wasn’t sure what to expect when I started reading it, and am so glad that I enjoyed it so much. It was like Harry Potter meets Journey to the Center of the Ear... " Read more of this review » |

“Charlie massaged his right cheek, feeling a slight sting. “It doesn’t hurt much. I don’t know how it looks” – he lowered his hand and turned his face to the side – “but it can’t be that bad. What do you think? You’d date me, right?”
Alex pushed him away, grinning. “You’re an idiot.”

Dear Alecia, I would like to say what a huge fan i am of your work and thank you for being my friend on Goodreads. It is so nice to converse with likeminded people on a topic that is so important to us all, and to chat to authors whom i greatly admire (inc. yourself). Reading and writing are very important factors within my life and it is lovely that yourself, as a reader and great writer are also a part of it.

but i always thought that its way early for that isn't? but as long as you don't have a problem with early review (s) that's fine then :-)
Have to be honest due to schedule time i will start reading in two weeks! I will let you know ofcource (review here close to the release right?)
Yes thank you! I dont know what happend but the moment i send you a comment over here i just got an email from Netgalley wooii *party time* I think it will be fare to add a review after Easter what do you think? :)
Oh just notice there is a ARC of Talisman Of El in NetGalley! Not sure if i can have a approval to read it but wanted to say congrats anyway! :)
I hope you feel better soon! The Summer I Turned Pretty is definately a must-read! I really think you may like this book! I would love to hear your feedback on the book if you decide to read it -Haylee
I am in awe of each and every one of the quotes from your book! I am filling the time with other books until yours is available!!!
Hello, how are you? Thanks for accepting my friend request! Look forward to discussing books with you-Haylee
Good morning! I'm actually just now getting caught up with Dean Koontz' 'Odd Thomas' series, and am enjoying it quite a bit.Happy reading/writing! =)
