Letters from me...

Dear Yahoo!,

I don't ask too much of you--just that you let me actually read the emails you claim to have sitting in my inbox.  It's even worse when I can see that the email is from my agent or editor. Give it up. You know you want to.

Sincerely,
Mandy

Dear Jennifer Echols,

I am reading GOING TOO FAR. You are making me feel like a total hack as a writer.  Just thought you should know, in case I give up writing all together because I pale in comparison to your mad skillz.

Sincerely

EEE! Great Review by Book Nymph

YAY! Prada & Prejudice received a great review from Book Nymph.

A highlight:
 Even if you don't enjoy books with historical settings, you will enjoy this one, I promise. Mandy Hubbard did a fantastic job creating Austen-era England, something that must of taken immense research on her part. Not only that, but she has created chracters that you just fall in love with, whether or not you really want to.

Woohoo!

~Mandy

Carrie Ryan's 5 word answers...

THE FOREST OF HANDS AND TEETH is a brand new YA out by debut author CARRIE RYAN.


It is in stores now-- and you need to go check it out, even if you're not into the zombie/horror stuff. I read this several months ago. I peeked at the first page while cooking dinner, and then almost burned everything to read several more pages. Later that evening, I took my daughter out to the truck and let her play in the driver's seat with the steering wheel & stereo buttons (One of her favorite activities) JUST

Brand new books I want to buy

Which one should I buy?

The King's Rose by Alisa Libby
Jessica's Guide to Dating on the Dark Side
Sophomore Switch
Going too Far by Jennifer Echols


I'm soo annoyed that 3 of the 4 are hardcover, or I'd buy them all, but I try not to go overboard on the hardcovers becuase i always have ridiculously high expectations if I shell out $18.

Rob, you can totally be in my movie....

Found out Robert Pattinson is British. Has an adorable accent. So hey, Hollywood: Prada & Prejudice movie rights are totally available, and if you cast Robert, all the twilighters will so go see the movie. Instant hit, see?

He'd be perfect to play the ninteen year old Duke of Harksbury, Alexander Thornton-Hawke. Might as well dream big, huh?

Cover simliarities....

Okay, this is something that's been driving me nuts for awhile. I think these two covers have the same model. Your opinion?


View Poll: Is it the same girl?

Hmmm...AWKWARD!

Just watched TWILIGHT.

Was it just agonizingly awkward for anyone else?


Also, could they have possibly found a glitter for Edward that looked slightly less gay??


That is all.

Great Odds....

Want a 1 in 13 chance to win an ARC of Prada & Prejudice? Those are the current odds for the Widget for a Prize contest! Today is the last day to enter.


Even better? With just 13 entries so far, every entry gets a lip gloss, key chain or ARC for particpating. So what are you waiting for??
