I don't write eloquent reviews so I'll just say this - it's books like these that make me wish amazon had a 10 star option. This is the best book I've read in ages and I can't wait for the next installment.<br /><br />Cheers, NikkiNikki Jeffordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06425343380649714766noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8303240770763546035.post-82353189903116895802012-01-14T18:31:45.284-08:002012-01-14T18:31:45.284-08:00That is so cool!

It's such a beautiful cover!<br /><br />So, if you released a Russia version, do you think they'll change your name to Taylora, since an a is always added to the end of a Woman's surname. I thought it was only for Russia names, but maybe like Slovakia, it's for everybody.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8303240770763546035.post-65621616939327257002012-01-13T19:10:26.257-08:002012-01-13T19:10:26.257-08:00Akiva is yummy!!

Sorry to be so vague. Taylorova sounds way cooler than my last name would with the suffix. <br /><br />My question is: What is on Akiva's shoulder?

Although I second Mindy's comment about LIPS TOUCH. The art was just as much a part of the story as the text... It's too bad your Italian readers won't know what they're missing.<br /><br />Catherynne Valente tweeted about one of her new foreign editions recently, and the Czech publishers changed her name too! (It's Valentinova.)
