A book plate? That would be awesome!
BTW, I’m 150 pages into the book (I just started reading it last night). Gotta say, it’s been a long time since I read a book that quickly!
I’m already wanting to read a sequel; the characters are so compelling as is the wonderful story.
Cindy, I just bought your book last night! I am SO excited. :)
I glanced inside as I was waiting in line, and you had me hooked with the first sentence!
Congratulations!
i am so lame. I have just found your blog and I didn’t realize that you lived in San Diego…..I lived in O’side! I would have come down…..sigh. When you do another one around here, I’ll be there to get a signed copy.
I hope your day was amazing.

Darn it!
I happen to be in San Diego this weekend for a wedding. If I had known you had a release party yesterday, I would have gotten myself over there for a signed copy.
Still searching in St. Louis, going to break down and Amazon it if I don’t get a copy in my hands soon.
Ooh – you are getting some prominent real estate. Nice!! I’m also giving away your book on my site…an autographed one to boot since I’ll be getting a batch of those on Friday. Bwahahahahaha!
Woo-hoo! Love the exposure so far. I wish I could have been in San Diego just a few days earlier than our expected arrival on the 6th. We so would have showed up and gotten our books signed!
Anyway, just wanted to say that we found the book at the Union Square B&N in NYC. Last time I checked again, there was another copy up on the Teen Fiction shelf.
So cool to see your book in the window.
dara–i saw your review, thank you! so glad you enjoyed it.
renee–eeee!
shelley, that’s such a bummer! i tried to spam everyone on FB and in my email accounts!
jeannie, make sure you go to my bn silver phoenix page and type in your zip! it’ll letyou know where available!
martha, THANK YOU!! <3
david, i can’t believe we’ll miss each other!
kim, thank you!!
We’re leaving Dubai tonight and I cannot wait to read two books:
Silver Phoenix
The Hunger Games
Hmmm…. whichever shall I start with?
;-)
LOL that your book is in front of Terry Pratchett!!! hehehehe!! Make room for new blood!
:-)
(Sorry I’m hyper right now…)
I bet you had goosebumps when you saw your book on display! Congrats on the prime shelf space Cindy! You deserve it!
I just got my copy and I am soooooo excited to read it! And way to go Cindy, I just checked Amazon.com and you’re 17,000 in books, which IMO is AWESOME.
The cover is so gorgeous. I’m trying to get my hands on an ARC. xxx
Just read your previous post…didn’t realize it was out b/c I looked at Borders.
Congratulations on your book release. The trailer looks awesome. I can’t wait to go get a copy. Best wishes!
CONGRATS on that awesome real estate! But with a gorgeous cover like that, what book store could resist? ;)
Congratulations!! I went to my local library in Brooklyn to ask that they order the book. Though I can’t wait and am going to look for it when we head out to Manhattan later.
I want to ask around as much as possible, might get more name recognition and get them to order more copies!
Good luck!
