City of a Thousand Dolls gets a starred review!!!!!!

Remember that secret I had last week? This is it.

Publisher's Weekly gave my book a starred review!!!!

I'm completely fuddled. A starred review is one of those things that you imagine in daydreams, the kind that sneak up on you and whisper in your ear. What if...  And then you shake yourself and remind yourself to be realistic and get back to work. And then it happens and it totally doesn't feel real.

I think my favorite part is that they summarized my book so nicely, something I still struggle with. "It's about...um... murders...and cats....and there's stuff...." *flail*

This is my favorite line.

Set in a magically isolated Empire with a strict caste system, a two-child limit, and telepathic cats....  

I think that says it all, really.

 And now I must dance the Dance of Glee!
