I just bought Furthermore An Anthology by Rebekah Campbell

I was totally drawn in by the free sample. We will have to chat once I'm finished reading. :o)


message 412: by Amanda (new)

Amanda (emennal) I just downloaded the Kindle samples for The Moon Dwellers, the Star Dwellers, and the Sun Dwellers (and have already read the sample of the Moon Dwellers, so I'm pretty hooked :)), and will be buying them tonight after I get paid. (I save up the books I want during the week, and when a paycheck goes in every week on Thursday night, I download the books I've picked for the week :D - it's a nice end-of-the-week treat to look forward to!).

DeAnna (dee84812) | 671 comments I'm reading The Moon Dwellers right now actually, and I have to say I'm glad it doesn't actually take place on the moon, like I thought it did. lol

Lol I've gotten that a few times and most people are happy like you haha!


message 419: by Amanda (new)

Amanda (emennal) David, I am honestly very picky about what I read, so I am being totally honest when I say how excited I am to download the full books tonight - I LOVED the sample from The Moon Dwellers!

Also - thank YOU and your fellow authors for donating the proceeds from Anthology to the American Cancer Society! I work for another large health non-profit now, but I worked for the ACS as a fundraiser/recruiter, and volunteered as the Relay For Life chair for two years - they hold a very special place in my heart. What an awesome gesture.

Oh my gosh, I totally thought for quite a ways into the book that it took place deep inside the moon. Too funny. Glad I wasn't the only one. I didn't want to fess up. ;-)

Aww thank you so much, your words put a huge smile on my face and I'm so glad that you have a strong bond with ACS. It's such a small gesture, but it's nice to be able to put my writing to a good cause while also giving my readers some extra little tidbits from The Dwellers :)

Lol well I didn't exactly make it easy on you all with the title lol! Stupid me really. I've probably turned off a lot of potential readers because of the title if they don't want to read a book about the moon or space ;) oops!

Actually, I really liked the idea of a colony IN the moon. ;-) But the real story was even better once I figured it out! I like post-apocalyptic/dystopian tales even more than my sci-fi!

I was like "what!? huh!? you want ALL my books signed?" LOL, it was a very fun and happy day for me. Thank you so much for your waaay incredible support Karen. And books are an awesome thing to splurge on!

OK, I am very jealous of your book purchases too! I so need to read A Million Suns and I haven't even read Crossed yet! I'm excited to see what you think of Gone, if you like it enough, we may have to read the sequel together :)
