Hi, Melanie! I started into your books on Kobo within the last two months-ish. Not sure if you stated this, was Gabe/Valten's relationship reminiscent of The Prodigal Son? That struck me in the Snow White & Cinderella-based books. Scripture doesn't say a lot about the "other prodigal son." I didn't see on your site, figured I'd ask. (Rambling on Valten's arc caught my boyfriend's interest for your stories, hehe.)

Hi, Kariel! It did occur to me that Gabe and Valten's relationship was a bit like the prodigal and his older brother who stayed home, but that wasn't really main vibe or storyline for them. It is fun to see different things in different relationships and characters each time you read a book--if you happen to read them more than once. Thanks for telling me your observation! And I hope you boyfriend might give the books a try. I do have some male readers!

Hi Melanie! I love your books, I've read all of them and I can't wait to one day (hopefully, if God wills) to pass them on to my girls. You are one of the few authors who I buy their books without knowing anything about the story, I just know it will be good. Do you have family trees for all of your books? You weave so many stories with related characters, I wonder how you keep them straight. Thanks for the stories!

Hey Melanie! I recently read here on Goodreads that you are adding books to your Hagenheim series *Squeal*! I was pretty sad that The Silent Songbird was going to be the last one! So anyway, I was just wondering which family members your next books are going to be about? Thank you!
