Hi everybody!

I’m home from tour.  Well, I’ve been home for a few days, but this is the first chance I’ve had to write and thank everyone for coming out to the tour stops and welcoming me into your schools.  I had a blast!

So many awesome readers and lovely cities.  But I must say I’m very glad to be home.  And resting.  And, most importantly, working on Heist Society 3 which, come to mention it, I’d better get back to right now.

Have a great one!

Ally

        I know what you mean! I forced all my friends to read them though (and they all loved them)! But none of them have read GG5 yet. So it’s driving me insane because I want to talk someone about it!!!!!!

          I wasn’t around my mom at the time but I was coming home from a school trip. At the end I started jumping up and down because I was so happy and excited. Everyone looked at me like I was crazy. It was beyond awesome! And then I told them all about the series 😀 It was a total GG moment.

            Yep. Cried like a baby. Total outloud, obnoxous sobbing, makeup running, etc. You know how it is. Yes, Holly, I cried because it was over too. And we have to wait atleast 18 MONTHS for the next one!!!!!! I might cry! It’ll be wonderful, though. I can’t wait!

    • Angela says

      April 1, 2012 at 6:06 am

      Yeah, I cried too. And, yeah. They all think I’M CRAZY!
      Ohhh. I wish the GG6 would come earlier than 18 months. I’m going to be CRAZY!!! Uhh?!
      PLEASE?! Can we beg Ally to make it early? :((

      And look. Why hadn’t Zach told Cammie “he loves her” ?!! and/or say something. So that she’ll become his official girlfriend? But I love them already even if they hadn’t make they relationship official. 😀 <3

      I'm going crazy.

    Your books are amazing I started reading them when I first started high school. I was in recourse class when I heard about them. They touched me. I don’t know if I’m sounding stupid or you guys think I’m crazy but these books are the most amazing, and adventures stories i have ever read. So thank you for sharing them with the world ally and thank you for giving me the best reads I ever had and ever will have.

Anyways I still need to read HS2 but I haven’t been to the library in a while and GG5 was amazing! I got it 2 days after it came out and was happy to come home and see it on my pillow! It was actually my motivation to get my homework done 🙂 well thank you so much for writing! We love you Ally you are truly an inspiration

    1. Stolen (Dashboard Confessional)
    2. Arms (Christina Perri)
    3. Listen To Your Heart (D.H.T.)
    4. Runaway (Mat Kearney)
    5. All Yours (Metric)
    6. The Good Life (Frank Sinatra) His and Dean Martin’s music always felt like the ambiance of the Heist books to me.
