Today was a crappy day thanks to battling hours of traffic in 105-degree weather. Then I saw this message from a reader. Now I’m crying happy tears 🥹 If you ever wondered if you should blindly message an author to tell them you loved their book here’s your proof - the answer is YES, 1000 times yes.
