...VERITY PRICE!

Midnight Blue-Light Special debuted at #20 on the New York Times Bestseller List, making it the first book in the InCryptid series to make the print list (the entries on the NYT List that are printed in the paper, rather than just being posted on the website). This is a massive jump from Discount Armageddon, and I could not be happier or more honored.

Thank you all so much for reading, and for following me into this candy-coated heart of darkness. It is an honor, and I am so excited for you to find out what happens next, in Ohio, with Alex.

It's gonna be a party.

Awesome, well done! I've just finished reading it and loved it.

I received a panicked facebook message this weekend from a friend reading it - she wanted reassurance that the change of narrator didn't signal anything permanent.
I blame Mira for traumatizing up all...

How exciting!

And certainly not undeserved. :)

Cheese, cake, champagne and congratulations! May this bring you even more readers!

By the way, I devoured read Midnight Blue-Light Special at high speed, reread Discount Armageddon, then reread MB-LS. Then I moved them to my comfort books collection in the headboard bookshelf, along with the Toby Daye series. :)

Congrats! Wonderful to hear. I just finished it. :-) Really looking forward to the next one.

HAIL THE LIST!!!

I was packing my costuming last night and had to ask a friend if my Toby Dress would be acceptable to wear at the SCA. This lead to me pulling out my Toby books, which I will have to lend to him once he finished Butcher's novels.

Yay for you, because the book is awesome and you completely deserve this! And yay for us, because success means more money to feed cats means you may live to write another day! YAY FOR EVERYONE!

Did you tell her the horrible horrible truth? :-)

You see how I carefully did not specify...

Super congratulations!

Yay! Glad to do my humble bit to make it so.

[identity profile] kay-gmd.livejournal.com 2013-04-04 04:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes!

Yaaaaaaaay Verity Price has danced her way into our hearts.

[identity profile] apocalypticbob.livejournal.com 2013-04-04 04:32 pm (UTC)(link)
So happy and proud and excited for you! Congratulations!

Have devoured MBLS and the rest of the family is reading it or DA, depending on whether they wanted to re-read DA first. MBLS is likely to be one of our book club selections for next month as well.

Hail the Placement Upon the List!

(I really, really hope you never get tired of being HAILed. It's just so fun to do!)

congratulations!

audiobooks had a special on the audiobook. So, this is the first book that I own in all three formats - audiobook, print book, and ebook. Print for the lending (with warnings that since it's the second in the series I won't lend the next one - I only lend out the first two in a series these days to encourage people to start buying them). Audiobook appears to be for commuting. I have been sick and it's exciting enough despite having read it a few times already to keep me awake during short transfers.

Hooray!

YAY FOR THINGS!

Congratulations! It's a fantastic book & deserves to be on the best-seller lists.

Much congrats!

Looking forward to a book with an Alex as a protagonist. :)

Really enjoyed MB-LS. Loved the shift of narrator, though I of course wish things had turned out differently for her. Hard not to think that you are setting up something huge and BAD with her and the other Cuckoos.

And now that Dominic is on the side of the good guys, he's that much more my favorite. (I am, as ever, a fanboy for boy scouts.)
