I just finished your book yesterday and must say it was amazing. When I want a magical book about books this is what I want to read. I will be purchasing a copy for my shelves at home. I have also started a spreadsheet for all the books, what they do, and their physical descriptions. Will there be more? I can't wait to see what you come up with next!

I finished your book a week ago and I am still amazed at how magical it was. I felt like I was in the book, and I was right along with the characters going through doors to new places and using these magical books with them. I'm not exactly sure how I stumbled upon your book, but I just wanted to let you know that you are a GREAT author, being your first. I hope there will be more to come???

Gareth Brown Hi Brittany - thank you so much for your very kind comments. I hope there will be more to come too… and book 2 should be out next year!
