Thank you! I finished Crooked Kingdom, SO GOOD. I can't believe there isn't going to be another book in the series. :( Now I'm back to reading , which I'm really enjoying!

I've been pretty lucky lately, and keep picking up great reads!

This is kinda cool and I just had to share with y'all. As some of you might know, I've had a small fan base for my children's books in South Dakota for a while. They even include them as part of their curriculum. Anyway, long story short, I went there for a week to meet all the students and faculty and parents. It was AWESOME. But there's more to the story, and Microsoft did an awesome video about it. Here's the link:

That's awesome, David! How cool to work with students like that--and then to be able to meet them.

That is an amazing story!

[David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;)]

Thanks for watching! It was so fun. I mean, my children's books are more a just-for-fun part of what I do, so it was pretty crazy that this community latched onto them the way they do :) FUN STUFF!

[Jenny, Always smiling! :-D]

That turned out SO COOL!!!! Its beyond amazing you got to do that, David!! :) This makes my heart so happy :)

[Jenny, Always smiling! :-D]

OMGosh, guys, is SO GOOD so far!! I'm absolutely loving it! I'm about 1/3 of the way in.

It just shows the impact that books and reading/writing can have on children's learning.

[Karen’s Library]

Oh WOW David!! That's amazing!! I love the impact you've had on those kids!

[Heidi]

That is more than awesome David!!! Helping the future generation learn the love of reading is an awesome accomplishment :)

[Rose (The_Calm_Reader)]

I'm doing a re-read of A Court of Thorns and Roses and I am absolutely loving it! I'm about 100 pages in!!! Can't believe how how much of this I forgot!!! Planning to follow this re-read with a first time read of ACOMAF!

[Catherine]

@Rose I just finished my re-reads of those a couple weeks ago and I still love them. Can't wait for the new ones. ACOMAF was a roller coaster ride. I hope you enjoy!

[Karen’s Library]

I'm doing a long car ride this weekend with my grandkids. They're 16, 13 and 12 so thought I'd put on for us to listen to for the drive. ;)

[Elora]

@karen. Fun! Fantastic choice!

That's a good one. I wish I could listen to audio books.

[Karen’s Library]

And I get to tackle that always elusive K for the A - Z challenge. ;)

[David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;)]

Wow, thanks all! I really appreciate your kind words! Inspiring kids to read has been an added bonus of what I do :)

Looks like everyone is finding some good reads!!!

[Catherine]

Just finished A Torch Against the Night and I loved it! Sucks that I have to wait until next year for book three. Moving on to Before I Fall and I'm down to two books in my current TBR pile with a B&N coupon so I think I can add a new book to the pile.

Finally did my March Wrap Up! What I read in March:

I tried reading Evolution but it was written in a way that was very amateurish. Hard to describe. I got through 28% of it and just couldn't go on. Now I am reading a boxed set FINAL DAWN so we shall see how it goes. So far the writing is much better.

Hmm I can't remember if I tried that one or not. It sounds familiar, but I don't really remember. Hope Final Dawn is more to your liking!

[Storm]

Finally get to read this thing. I have the first book and loved it but could never find this one.

Evolution is not a bad story, it was just told very oddly. Maybe too simply, telling things it didn't need to, sometimes twice in one paragraph in a different way. Final Dawn skips around between characters, which is okay, I assume they will all meet up eventually. Another EMP story. Sigh. I think I will read Fatemarked. Is that series finished yet?

[Catherine]

Just started Caraval yesterday. I got about half-way through Before I Fall before I stopped because I was just getting frustrated by the character and the repetition. Hopefully Caraval turns into a good read (no pun intended).

Ah okay, gotcha. I'll probably skip Evolution for now, I have so many other books on my Kindle :) (as usual!)

Oooo thanks for this!!

[Jenny, Always smiling! :-D]

Okay I finished and I ADORED it--I liked it better than Daughter of Smoke and Bone, but not more than Dreams of Gods and Monsters (adored that book so much!) Its the first in a series though, and I have high hopes for the rest of it! Beautiful, quotable writing! A few favorites (I have so many page flags marking quotes its unreal!)

"Horizons instead of books. Riding instead of reading. It was a different life out here, but make no mistake: Lazlo was every bit the dreamer he always had been, if not more. He might have left his books behind, but he carried all his stories with him, out of the glave-lit nooks of the library and into landscapes far more fit for them."

"Vengeance. Sarai heard the way he said it, and she understood something. Vengeance ought to be spoken through gritted teeth, spittle flying, the cords of one's soul so entangled in it that you can't let go, even if you try."

"Lazlo's mind was afire with marvel, the lit match touching off fuse after fuse. Burning lines raced through his consciousness, connecting far-flung dots and filling in blanks, erasing question marks and adding a dozen more for every one erased. A dozen dozen. There could be no end to the questions, but the sketch outlines of answers were beginning to appear, and they were astonishing."

[Jenny, Always smiling! :-D]

I'm about 2/3 of the way through and I'm loving it!!

Also started , really good so far!

Just one great book after another!!

I've now read - and loved - the first three titles (Fatemarked, Fatemarked Origins Volume I, and Truthmarked). Really looking forward to reading the rest!

Oh wow, thanks so much! I appreciate it and am glad you've enjoyed the series so far :) :) :)

Also, I've moved up the release date for Fatemarked Origins Vol. III, it will now be available on Kindle on April 20th.

Also, for those who haven't grabbed any of the origins stories yet, I've just published a combined volume that combines all three Origins volumes into one, which is more than 600 pages of epic stories :) :) :) It's been a fun couple of months!!

No worries! I've got to start writing the next book, Deathmarked, soon, but we're visiting my parents and it's hard to squeeze in writing time :)

I actually read the ending cause I couldn't handle it anymore and I was so confused and kind of upset so I decided not finish it. The plot also annoyed me and Sam just made me angry.
