I’ve been reading about this project on Amal’s blog since she and her twin daughters first started working on it together, and I’m so very glad that I finally got to sit down with the book.
Thank you, Jaclyn, for reading our book and for sharing your thoughts on it! For her full comments, see here. I’ve known Jaclyn through our blogs since 2012, but I had the pleasure of meeting her in person at the beginning of the summer. We’re both huge fans of L. M. Montgomery’s work.

Reblogged this on World4Justice : NOW! Lobby Forum..
Thanks for the great read! Can’t wait to see what you do in the sequel. And of course, I am waiting with bated breath for “Clutches of Evil, Roar!”
Thanks, Jaclyn! We appreciate your support. I’m so glad you enjoyed it. 🙂
