“You're beautiful and sad," I said finally, not looking at him when I did. "Just like your eyes. You're like a song that I heard when I was a little kid but forgot I knew until I heard it again." For a long moment there was only the whirring sound of the tires on the road, and then Sam said softly, "Thank you.”

I think I just watched to many of your videos last night, because I dreamed that I met you in the gym and I was really excited about that and you painted something in one of my Maggie Stiefvater books. It was really weird. But as weird as it was, I wish it was real.
Thank you for accepting my friend request, Mags:) I am so excited for The Raven Boys (I am from Germany and have to wait longer for the book!:[), and I want to buy me Scorpio Race soon. :)
Do you read (German) poetry or is it just Sam?:D
Love always,
M.

Thanks so much for accepting the friend request :D I LOVED The Raven Boys and just got The Scorpio Races- I bet it will be just as amazing!!! Dying for The Dream Thieves as well!
i just have read your The Scorpio Races and perhaps it's best thing I've ever read in my life. you are a goddess. i love you. can't wait for the raven boys!
Just wanted to say that I just read The Scorpio Races and I absolutely loved it! Can't wait for more from you in The Raven Boys!
I really appreciate you accepting my friend request! I just want to tell you that... I love your books. I hope you keep on writing and improving.
Thank you so much for accepting my friend request! Also I just wanted to say I truly loved the Mercy Falls series. Everyone of the books left me eager waiting for the next. I was sad when it was over, but regardless, I enjoyed the entire series throughout. I can't wait for The Raven Boys. Really looking forward to it.
Hi Maggie, Thank you so much for accepting my friend request. I'm so excited for The Raven Boys the cover is amazing! Hurry up September 18th! :)
Hi Maggie! First off thank you for accepting my friend request. I really adore your books. I just wanted to send you a comment about that blog post you did about people and "reviews". The other day I went to go look at the reviews for Lauren Kate's new book Fallen In Love because I really enjoyed it and wanted to see what other people thought. Almost all the posts that were at the top were negative ones that ripped Lauren Kate to shreads. The thing that made it even worse was NONE of them actually read the book. All I could do was shake my head. I hate how most of the time the top reviews on Goodreads are the horrible ones! Also wanted to say I really can't wait for MagicalNovel to be released. I love reading about it in all your blogs! Hope you have a good day! Thanks again!!
thank you for accepting my friend request!! i really love your books especially the wolves of mercy falls!! it's cool on how cole tries his best to get a cure for everyone and kinda sad that isabel has to go back to california... you should make a forth book for it it feels like it hasn't ended yet... i wanna know what happens to grace, if she got cured or not... but they should make it a movie!!
AHHH thank you for accepting my friend request! you are one of my all time favorite authers! i just love you and your books soooo much! THe books were honestly one of the best wolve storys i have read in a while! i loved the main characters even though in some parts of the shiver series i did ball my eyes out they were still absoultly amazing! and the scorpio races? totally different but a good type of different! I love the romance and the heartbreak in your novels ! i honestly wish i had my very own sam! i love him and think hes amazing! but i cant sad days! i really hope you will make another scorpio races even though it seemed like you werent going to i still have unanswered questions and i really really hope you do! thankyou for accepting the request and making thoses amazing books! and maybe makeing a squel....
Thank you for accepting my friend request. Just finish Linger and starting Forever. The book just gets better and better the farther I go the more i want to know how it ends for Sam. I really enjoy the characters and Cole is one of them. Sam I wish I knew him in real life sounds like a awesome guy.

Maggie,
Are you completely finished with the Lament/Ballad series? I just read them, (I know late bloomer), and thoroughly enjoyed them. I wish there were more books to this series! Looking forward to Scorpio Races! Sad that Mercy Falls series is at a close. I really enjoy your writing! Have a fantastic week! --- Holli

Maggie,
I recently finished Forever, and there are very few words. Your writing is pure poetry in motion. I just loved the story and characters and adored it all to the very end. I will miss this world for sure! Thank you for such an amazing, beautiful tale of love and adventure!

SORRY BUT I'M DELETING YOU FROM MY LIFE! *clicks delete* LOADING... ▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓ 99%. ERROR! It is impossible to delete our friendship, I love you too much. Post this to 1O people's walls who you never want to lose. If you get 3 back, you're an amazing friend :D
hey maggie, this is a poem about shiver that i wrote. it may be a bit vague but i just wanted to show you :)
From summer she arrives,
And further goes into their lives
his yellow eyes always inviting
and to her his kiss is enticing
The eyes of the wolves are soft puddles of hue
of greens, browns, yellows, and blues
will the young boy with yellow eyes
ever know when he will say his last goodbyes?
How could love to them be so pitiless?
but in the end, they all clean up the bloody mess
how softly they lock lips and bodies
in conclusion, they've all found their peace

Thanks so much for the friendship! I just finished Forever and although I'm sad that it's over, it made me really happy to experiance that series! Shiver is definately one of my favorite books of all time! I still remember the first time I finished reading it and how floored I was. I just recently finished your Faerie books as well and they are equally awesome! Keep up the great work Maggie! :)
Hi :) thanks for accepting my friend request :) i loved reading Shiver and Linger and once my sister is finished with Forever i will read it!! :D also LOVED Lament and i have Ballad waiting for me :)
Hi Maggie, thankyou so much for accepting my friend request, I loved Shiver and I'm waiting to buy Linger and I can't wait for Forever too! :)
Ugh, okay so I haven't read forever yet (YET!!) but I'm working on getting money! but I have an idea! (yes, i also put this on youtube) you should make a spin off series! I heard about the prank... yhou could call the first Liter! and you could name one Sam Cole Roth!!!!!!!
Maggie! I just finished Forever...It was so good! Hope I get to see you on your tour... I really want to meet you!
OMG! I love love love love love love Sam! Can I pull him out of the book and have him as my boyfriend?!
I too went to see you in Naperville and you are sooo funny! Thanks for staying late to sign all of our books! You are awesome! Can't wait to see you again next month! Can't wait for Forever!!!!
