- So how are you guys liking the new AllyCarter.com? Was it worth the wait? I have to say I’m really loving being able to go in and make changes (additions, corrections, etc.). So addicting!
- I hear they will soon be announcing the new cast of Dancing With the Stars, but I haven’t gotten a call yet. Should I be worried? Is it possible that they have once again denied me the chance…to dance!?!?
- For everyone who has asked, I’m currently working on the first draft of Heist 2. Sadly, I have no idea when it will be finished (as it takes significantly longer to write a book than to read a book). If and when that changes I’ll let you know.
- My next release is Gallagher Girls 4: ONLY THE GOOD SPY YOUNG! (in stores June 15, 2010)
- When I was on tour I finally read HUNGER GAMES, and yeah, it was just as good as everyone says it is (which is saying something.)
- Speaking of totally awesome books, can you belive I haven’t seen the movie Shutter Island yet? No, me neither. After all, that is one of my all-time favorite books. I mean, that is a FREAKING AWESOME book!
- Next month I will be going to Italy to attend the Bologna Book Festival and I’m crazy excited about it! Italy! Pasta! Books! (I may not come home.)
Later,
Ally

February 28, 2010 at 8:43 pmFirstly, have fun in Italy!
Secondly, I LOVED Hunger Games also, just finished catching fire… I’m a little obsessed.
Thirdly, there are three books I’m dying to get (and for them to come out) Heist 2, gg4 and mocking jay (hunger games three)
Foutrhly, I JUST got Heist Society from barns & noble and i am SO excited to start it.
Lastly, the new allycarter.com is nice, but less…pretty. I still love the change though. 😀
Allie says
February 28, 2010 at 7:16 pmWhen I read Heist Society I realized you were so right… I love Zach but i LOVE Hale!!! =)
Also, are you reading Catching Fire now?! (The second Hunger Games book)

February 28, 2010 at 2:03 amPersonally, I don’t like the new website. Well its okay, except for the blog, the old blog was better. IM SO EXCITED FOR HEIST 2 AND GG4 EPPPPPPPPPP!!!!!!!
Cecilia says
February 28, 2010 at 2:03 amI like the old format better though. It was much prettier with all the different colors and it was easier to tell one entry from another. This one is easy to work but I have to favor the other one. Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!! I CANNOT, I REPEAT, CANNOT WAIT FOR THE CONTINUED AVENTURES OF CAMMIE AND ZACH!!!! Take me with you to Italy??
Erin says

Lyla A says
February 28, 2010 at 4:15 amYay! I’m glad you liked The Hunger Games! I absolutely love the series!
I quite like the new AllyCarter.com. The layout is nicer and more organized. I like the options at the top where you can see media information or read excerpts; the information is easily accessible. But I liked the pink colour and font you used before. It felt more…homey. But this font (Arial?) is a lot more professional and cleaner looking. However, as I am writing this comment, I also feel like I am writing more directly to you. Maybe it’s because the comments section now doesn’t go to a different page, or because I am using “you” instead of “Ally.”
Despite my desire, I have not read Heist Society yet! I can’t believe it! I came out, what, twenty days ago! I’m so pathetic. I have a gift card for the bookstore and everything! But I seen a lot of great reviews for Heist Society. I’m really excited to read it!
And *glares enviously*! Italy! Lucky duck! Haha, I hope you have fun!
(I also just realized that there is no ‘preview comment’ button to click. I did like that option on the other version.)
Lyla A says
February 28, 2010 at 4:18 amOh, also, I adored that line “it takes significantly longer to write a book than to read a book.” Hahaha, you’re so clever, Ally! This is why we love you and your books!
Nadia Murti says
February 28, 2010 at 4:30 amOoh! Have fun in Italy! By the way, search bird’s-eye view pictures of Bologna–all the rooftops are the color of bologna! (I wonder, which came first, the lunch meat, or the city with pink roofs?)
I cannot wait for “Only The Good Spy Young”!!!
I like the new website better than the old, but I like the old blog design better than the new.
Kylie says
February 28, 2010 at 6:07 amI love the old format of the blog better. Other than that. Everything looks good..
I can’t wait for Heist Society 2 and Thhe Goood Spy Young. June is going to be a good month this year.
Italy should be fun! Wish I could go with you!

Jaelynn says
March 1, 2010 at 1:01 amHeist Society was so awesome!!! I can’t wait until the next one!!! You have some serious talent!!
Katy K says
March 1, 2010 at 12:44 amLoved Heist Society… it is as good a Gallagher Girl. You should definitely read Catching Fire, its possibly better than the Hunger Games which is kind of crazy. So you wanna give us any hints about whether Hale and Kat get together??? and Simon was awesome, gotta love the nerds.
Can’t wait for Gallagher Girl #4
Brooke says
March 1, 2010 at 12:32 amOh fun! Have fun in Italy! I like Hale but… I LOVE Zach! You can’t do better than Zach Ally! 🙂
Laura says
