BLURBS IN! Huzzah!
Holy cow what a day. Three blurbs in for The Well’s End!
"A compulsive read, a kick-ass heroine and a brilliantly plotted adventure, THE WELL’S END is going to be THE must-read book of 2014. Fishman writes with verve, originality and complete control, delivering satisfying twists and extraordinary surprises. Brilliant!" ~ John Boyne, New York Times Bestselling author of The Boy With The Striped Pajamas
"A crackling thriller that keeps you turning the pages until the very end." ~ Jennifer Smith, author of The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight

Wonder if others have had any better luck?
