Gifted:
I received the COOLEST gift ever this week! I am a huge fan of Kara-lija's TMI / ID artwork and she was so sweet and sent me an original sketch she did of Jace and Clary!!!
If this wasn't done in pencil I might have kissed it, okay not really, but I can't tell you guys how excited I am over this. It's being framed and going to hang up in my office. THANK YOU KARA!
Thank you to:
Kara, Aladdin, Shannon Messenger, Simon & Schuster, Egmont USA, Deb Shaprio, Scholastic, Y.S. Ling, Candlewick Press, Judith Graves & Leap Books, Darby Karchut, Flux, Suzanne Lazear, Bloomsbury Kids, and P.G. Kain for this week's awesome reads.
