“I hate this feeling. Like I'm here, but I'm not. Like someone cares. But they don't. Like I belong somewhere else, anywhere but here, and escape lies just past that snowy window, cool and crisp as the February air.”

"Act
on your impulse
Swallow the bottle
Cut a little deeper
Put the gun to your chest "
And I was *gasps* "Oh my God. That must be some deep stuff." I even felt scared holding it. I felt my hand shake and quickly went to the counter to check it out. That's how I got started on these books. I then read Perfect and next Tilt. I still have a lot more to go and for some reason, my library doesn't carry Crank so I'll need to order it from a different library probably.
I want to thank you for accepting my friend request and that I absolutely love your books. You are such a good writer, it's scary. Continue to write.
By the way, I asked a question but I'm not sure you'll answer so I'll write it here: Are you going to write another book for Perfect? When I finished it, I felt like there were still a lot of unanswered questions.

How come none of your books have been made into movies? Out of every YA author, ..."
I wish I knew, Joshalyn.... there is some interest now, so we'll see.








Became aware of your books when I noticed my daughter reading 'Crank'. You now have two more fans.


I am more then sure I will love them all :D You are most welcome Ellen. Credit should be given when it is due and it is most definitely due!





Thanks so much, Elizabeth. <3 you, too!
