Signing in Manila--July 20 at Powerbooks!

Hi everyone,


Hope you’re having a great week! Just wanted to check in and give a big THANK YOU to my UK readers for making FATED a bestseller! I really appreciate all your kindness and enthusiastic support, and I couldn’t do it without you!


I've spent the last two weeks vacationing in Australia, which has been an amazing adventure. I’m completely gobsmacked by the diverse landscape, friendly people, and incredible sights like these:





Sunset at Kata Tjuta! 

Evening hike!



Last day in Australia--Took the ferry to the zoo--amazing!!



Not a raven, but still reminded me of Daire's Spirit Animal!

Missed the Koala cuddle - but did get to see these guys! 




Though I was sad to say goodbye to Australia, I decided to cut my vacation short in order to do a book signing in the Philippines! I’m SO excited to visit Manila and meet some of the many readers who have been sending me messages about FATED on Facebook, Twitter and my blog—and I hope to see YOU there!

Next Stop--Australia!!!

Hey everyone,


I’m wrapping up my FATED tour here in Singapore and I just want send a big, sparkly THANK YOU to everyone for giving me such a warm welcome! I had so much fun doing interviews with Teenage Magazine, The Sun, Seventeen Malaysia, The Straits Times, The Star and more--and it’s been a total blast exploring sights like these:


At the SkyPark in Singapore--57 stories high with an amazing view of the city!


Singapore by night!

ION shopping mall--just one of MANY amazing shopping centers on Orchard Road!

I imagine Ever & Damen visiting the Museum of Art & Science-its shape was inspired by a lotus blossom!

More signs that Ever and Damen were here in Singapore--a Lotus blossom at the Botanical Garden!



Singapore is truly one of the most fascinating places I’ve visited yet! I’m so sad to leave this beautiful city and wonderful people, but excited to visit Australia next--and I hope to see YOU at one of the following tour stops!
