Well, a lot of things went through my head, and then I started holding my breath as I always do when I think I'm about to read a review.
And then I jumped up and down and ran around the house when I read Sabrina Rojas Weiss describe FHT as "a pretty freakin' amazing, empowering and absolutely thrilling young-adult post-apocalyptic zombie love story."
Squee!! Empowering!! You can read the entire review here! So yeah, you can imagine how much of boost that gave me right in the throes of revisions! Thanks MTV!!!!! To make things even better, they're apparently going to do another post this week or next asking for dream-casting for the movie! I can't wait to see what people come up with!! I'll post the link once it's up!
I also promise to post more about The Dead-Tossed Waves, the companion to FHT, soon!

Or as I prefer to call him, The All Important Scott-la. Hence my username Like to type more but my mom just came home
Carrie, this totally rocks!!!!!
I just read the Forest of Hands and Teeth. The title called out to me--begging me to read it. I loved it! Is it true that there's going to be a movie? I hope so. I can't wait for the sequel book. Too bad we have to wait a year for it.
Good reviews are the best source of writing energy. And your book definitely deserves a lot of them!
Congrats, Carrie! "Empowering" . . . let's just savor that for a moment . . . or a million. Hope the MTV coverage drove hoards of people to your amazing story.
