I have some news! But first of all, I would like to thank everyone who sent good wishes about my bad news. I owe about a million messages, but I have been bowled over by the kindness of both friends and strangers, and even though sometimes that kindness made me cry, it has

I am always, INFINITELY grateful to you for existing and for writing words and for posting pictures so I worried a bit less. You told me months and months ago (I was the lady clutching copies of every single one of your books and babbling about how Alan and Sin's love made THE MOST SENSE in Colorado) that I could have an actual real copy of this actual real book and I am the MOST EXCITED to read an actual real book BUT WITH MORE BOOK INCLUDED and I am so very very happy that Holly did not let you be Spiderman.

This is fantabulous news and I am so happy about it.

I am also so happy that people are helping you through this difficult time. I keep you in my thoughts and I hope that you know how much you are loved, even by people you don't know.

You are always so lovely, and it was so lovely to meet you in person! Thank you for keeping the secret I solidly told you and then didn't tell people for way longer than I expected!

I'm so happy that you've written more and that I'll finally get to own a copy of one of my all time favourite stories!! Turn of the Story is the confort food of books, I have found. It makes me happy and warm and fuzzy and I always get more out of it everytime I revisit it (which perhaps doesn't work with my comfort food analogy but it needs to be said!)

I've been following the story since the beginning and you've given me so much joy through it. This book is a blessing and I'm so excited to see it unfold into something even greater!

All my love and all my thanks, and I wish you a speedy and full recovery xx

OMG. Sarah.

OMG, SARAH!!!!!!!!

This is fantabulous news. I'm so excited for you....and for me....and for all the people I am going to foist this lovely book upon.

(You are in my thoughts all the time, and I hope constantly-throwing-up-March gives way to better, healthier times very very soon <3)

[sarahtales]

Awwww. Thank you. I'm doing okay! Soon I will be able to leave my homeland and creep about the world doing evil as is my way...

[wildpear]

That is very good news. I am a big fan of evil...

First of all, I am so glad that.you are alive!!! Reading this has brightened my day. I saw you and Holly Black on the Demon's Cat tour in Houston, and it warms my heart to see how she has influenced you (rightly so) into putting more of your amazing work out into the world. As my birthday is a week before your book comes out, I am ecstatic and totally ordering it for myself as a late bday present. Congratulations and I hope you are doing well!!!

Holly is a gift.

And I am so pleased my book will be your slightly late gift! Slightly early happy birthday!

[jordinothepizza]

She very much is! And thank you ^_^

Yey Sarah!! go you! :D
OMG!! this is so wonderful!! I love your stories, fell in love with the Demon's Lexicon, but Elliot? Elliot is truly something else. His story has become like the most amazing of comfort food and the favorite, warmiest of blankets on a cold rainy night, it never fails to make me laugh and cry and just all the feels...And now there's more?? Brilliant!! I can't wait for it!

ps: the amazon link seems to be broken somehow? it keep throwing an 503 error :/

Thank you so much for the heads-up! I think is fixed now...
