![]() ![]() Jac, her husband, and our sister Alena are coming to my place on Saturday to color eggs, play Exploding Kittens, and generally eat an irresponsible amount of ham and green bean casserole.

She wasn’t sure about the whole thing at first, but she is easily bribed with accessories, and getting to wear her Easter dress was enough to get her in the spirit.

Because of this, I can no longer promote her books in good conscience. From Amazon UKĭisclaimer: Since writing my review, I have discovered that John Green is a problematic author - you can find more info here, here and here. Told in alternating voices from two of the most popular names in young adult fiction, this unique collaborative novel features a double helping of the heart and humour that has won both authors legions of fans. Culminating in epic turns-of-heart on both of their parts, they team up to produce the most fabulous musical ever to grace the high school stage. Will Grayson, Will Grayson by John Green and David Levithan - One cold night, in a most unlikely corner of Chicago, teenager Will Grayson crosses paths with…Will Grayson!

I know lots of you have asked for this, so there you go. Oh, you want to know what the title of this post means? Please, allow me to delay by dancing around the issue for several paragraphs.įirst, as I know many of you were wondering, the map is coming! I sent my crappy hand-drawn version off to a graphic artist today, so in the next few weeks I'll be uploading a map to The Crimson Vault and House of Blades.Īt the very least, you'll be able to get a vague picture of the region. ![]() |
