From Meghan McCarron

Now that I am an Enslaved Office Worker, I do most of my reading in bed.  Usually I read a few pages, maybe even a whole chapter, and conk out.  Usually.  When I was reading The Girl in the Glass, I would stay up for HOURS, promising myself "just one more chapter," like I was twelve and hiding from my Mom under the covers way past my bedtime. When I finally laid the book on my nighttable and collapsed onto my pillow, I would have DREAMS about the Girl in the Glass, where everyone spoke in snappy 30s dialogue and got into car chases and sought out ghosts, despite themselves.   

 

When I woke up the next morning, I realized that I'd been longing to dream the 30s for years -- hell, I used to wish VH1 would make a show called "I Love the 30s" and let me be on it making snarky comments about the Walls of Jericho-- but Jeff's vivid, hilarious, and near-perfect book was the thing that finally wormed itself into my subconscious.  Thanks for writing a totally awesome book, Jeff, and thanks for giving me the sweetest dreams this side of the time Buffy AND Faith showed up in my room and -- well, okay, suffice to say this book is great, and you should force your friends to buy it in bookstores across America.  And remember, be sure to read it late at night to acheive the full effect.
