Two days ago, I tweeted this: “One of the best things in the world: when a reader tells you it’s way past their bedtime but they can’t stop reading your book. =)” … I’m really grateful for these moments and they make me really, really happy.
Now, I want to share more about these moments with you.
I’ve met Hannah, a book blogger from Australia, when she was organizing her New Adult November event last year – she’s a NA enthusiastic ;) Right now, she is on Destiny Gift blog tour set to go live the last week of April … since her NAN event, we’ve been tweeting a lot, and “pinteresting” a lot … she always goes snooping around my Breaking the Reins board and she writes things like “finish this book already! I need to read it!” hehe
So, the other night, she was reading Destiny Gift for her review and she keep tweeting me while at it. It was so fun … here are some things she tweeted:
@juliana_haygert Just wanted to let you know, in trying to read Destiny Gift, but it’s pretty hard when you’re swooning over Victor! :D

@juliana_haygert Tease! I should be sleeping but I seriously can’t do that right now!
— Hannah (@thegirlinacafe) April 9, 2013
@juliana_haygert Told you I’d enjoy it! Haha :D
— Hannah (@thegirlinacafe) April 9, 2013
@juliana_haygert ahhhhhh he kissed her! About bloody time. Haha *goes back to reading*

@juliana_haygert I kind of want to hate you right now, but I can’t. Oh my God. My feelings. You can’t leave me like this!!!
— Hannah (@thegirlinacafe) April 9, 2013
@juliana_haygert And fyi, that took me just over 3 hours to read. Which means it was freaking fantastic!

And then she wrote this on goodreads: “Words. I can’t even. OMG. I died. I need more. NOW! So torn. Full review to come.”
Hannah may be biased since we’re friends, but still … THIS. This is why writers write!
This makes me so, so happy. I know my book won’t please everyone, but knowing that it does please someone, it’s the world to me ;)
Cheers,
Juliana! I can’t believe you! This isn’t just quoting a tweet! Words can’t express how I’m feeling right now. Which is kind of ironic, right? But seriously, right now I don’t know whether or not to cry, hop on a plane to hug you or squee in my seat. So I’ll do two of the three, because right now travelling to America is out of the options :(
But I just want to say THANK YOU. Thank you for giving me something so beautiful to read. And one day I hope to be able to write a post like this too :)
P.S. How is the Breaking the Rein coming, huh, huh? :D
What a wonderful response! We live for those.
Yay! I love Hannah. :D
Oh my goodness! I totally loved reading this.
So. Fun. :)
Heeheehee! I bet those tweets made you want to totally squeeeeee when you read them! (I know I would have if it had been my book she was talking about ;-) )
PS – signed up for your book cover reveal next week. The story sounds fun!
