@Jordan Wow! Thank you so much! I’m thrilled you & your sister enjoyed Cracked Up to Be (thank you for passing it along to her!). I’m glad you got a kick out of Parker and Jake. :D

So, this is my first time on your website. I read your book and adored it! I read the excerpt online, and almost killed myelf it was so good. And I’m a pure order-online-aholic. I love ordering books, and I couldn’t wait for yours to come! I finished it in a day it was soooooo good! I gave it to my older sister to read! She likes it too! Parker is hilarious! Her character amazes me all the time. I love Jake he is too cute for words. I altogether love your book. But yeah, you’re right about the sequel thing. When I finished I was like there’s probably not going to be a sequel because there’s not much you can do to Parker now. But we shall see what you come up with!

You read MUCH MUCH MUCH more than me, and I’d wager a lot more than the average Joe. Seriously, I’m constantly amazed and impressed by it. And thank you for the interview again AND the congrats!! :)

lol, Thanks for the shout out. I really don’t read that much, I read a lot when I go to the doctor and before bed. I used to be dysletic and my mom would have me read out loud for hours. I think that may have been a course in speed reading… I had to do it for hours.
Also, Thanks for completing the interview questions, so quick. I’ll @reply you when it is posted.
Congrats on YASLA pick! Yay!

CONGRATULATIONS on the YALSA pick for CUTB!!! Totally deserved!

“Will there be a sequel to Cracked Up to Be?”
Sheila was going to ask you that … she still might, as her question is slightly different.

Hope you’re having a great weekend! It’s fun to have to back in blogland.

@Fi: That kicks so much ass!

@Jess Thank you!! I’m excited! And aaaah! YAY! That is so cool. Also Coach on Survivor = BIGGEST JERK EVER, Y? I am trying to think of someone who has been as insufferable in recent memory… he just takes the cake! He’s so oblivious!

@CK I loved your guestblog! It was fantastic. And omg, Africa in Tim Horton’s. That is like my own personal idea of heaven. And goodness, don’t apologize!!! Thank you for the congrats! I was tempted to put “If you are my Facebook friend or my Twitter friend, you have already heard this” at the beginning of the post. I feel like I’m on an internet loop sometimes and I feel bad–I repeat myself at people so much!

@Emily I am going to bring y’all to Canada I have decided. OMG I LIKE YOUR READING EXCUSE. I AM TAKING IT FROM YOU OR WE CAN SHARE IT. And omg, bb. You already heard about the YALSA thing three times including this blog entry and congratulated me–you are in no way shape or form an ass!!

@Emcrane THANK YOU! :) Been thinking about you, lady! And hee, my blog gives people gravatars who have none. If you want to control what people see when you comment at a site that uses gravatar, check out: http://gravatar.com/ :)
