hey amy , i loved you’re book beautiful , i would love if you could email me so i can ask you some questions about the book. i am doing a book report and i would love for you’re help !
I read your book Beautful and it was simply an amazing book. I recommended it to all of my friends. Thank you for writing a book like this. I cant wait to read future books of yours.
Hi Amy! I read your book “Beautiful” and i loved every word of it! So much so that I’m reading it again and telling all my friends that they have to read it also! But i really think that you should make this book into a movie! Its that amazing and many more people will be touched by the story line you have written out. i know you said that you didn’t want anything to do with film making after you studied it but I believe that your story just has to get out there more and touch many more lives the same way its touched the many who have read your book!
hey amy your such a good author i love your books they really truely speak to me they help me out with my depression and everything im going through
thanks, Cassidy! I’m so happy to hear that my books help you
Hi, my name is Nia and I love every single one of your books, most specifically, Beautiful. That was the first one I ever read and my favorite! I like to think about what I read and connect it to real life scenarios and I definitely did that while reading Beautiful.
Thanks for your books!
Hi, my name is Sara. I read both clean and beautiful, which I can honestly say are two of my favourite books! I think that with every word in both books you express something with your readers and I love that. Your words seem so real and theres not much of that anymore so thanks! I love reading as well as writing and I hope to one day be writer, so maybe you could email me some tips on how to get started. You are a truly inspirational writer and I hope to one day be half as good as you.
Thanks so much, Sara. My advice to you is to read and write as much as possible. Challenge yourself to read and work outside of your comfort zone and become comfortable with criticism.
Your work is amazing and you are an inspiration. I don’t know how else to say it but straightforwardly. Thank you, Amy. Please keep writing.
I don’t know what it is about your books, but I am absolutely addicted to them. Every time I’ve reached the final page, I flip back to the first cover to read through a second time. I read every one twice within a matter of days. Whenever anything is wrong, I read your writing till it’s okay. I relate so much to so many of your characters. It’s like you’re speaking directly to me sometimes. I hope I’ll be able to write as well as you do someday, that I might touch a reader the way you’ve touched me. Thank you so much.
I read your book “Clean”. I’ve never been into reading before until I read it. Every word you wrote was so deep and sincere. I’ve been through treatment before so the scenes you painted were so vivid and beautiful. As Kelly started unraveling her character I saw myself as her more and more. thank you for what you do. xo
