Dear Amber Kizer,
     Hello, My name is Jaycen. Right now I sound like I'm in an interview. I really liked Meridian. It was truly amazing! All of it was so enthralling, I felt like I was really there. Where do you get your inspiration?
      Sincerely Yours

Dear author of Meridian:)

    I love reading your book SO much! Each day I came home from school and entered the world of Meridian, Tens, Custos, and Auntie. I've since finished the book and I can't stop thinking about it! I think that's a sign that you wrote a very amazing book. Thanks for writing it!

 

        -Kelsey, the girl obsessed with Meridian.

Ms. Kizer:

Is that too formal?  I don’t know.  I read a lot of authors but I have never before written to one, so you’re my first and I didn’t want to offend.  J   Anyway, I downloaded your book, Gert Garibaldi’s Rants and Raves, to my Kindle today at lunch partly because Amazon suggested it due to my history (and who am I to disagree) and partly because I was just in the mood for something different.  I have laughed out loud several times and wanted to send a quick note to you to let you know you have a fan, I’m sure one of many.  I am quickly approaching 40 years old and while I suppose I am not the typical reader, I enjoy and can connect with Gert.  Thank you for the enjoyable reading, I have added you to my list of authors to read.  Sincerely, Judy

Hello Amber. "How are you? My name is Carolina.
First of all I wanted to say I love your book, this luxury Meridian!
For my part, you have a fan of Latin America, in fact I'm from Venezuela.
As well the management is not English, I have two questions. "" Auntie "is by (in Spanish) Tia or a name?But I'm the Ebook, and as I had to translate a couple of things I did not understand, and be in doubt. The second question is are second book in Meridian!? Tell me if you please.The fenestras seemed so interesting, besides the fact that it feels like to open the window, I can only tell you that you are the best I've read.
Hum ... Do not know what else to tell you, I would love to publish Meridian in Spanish, it would be very striking that around here. Because as more could not ask, I order you a greeting and a strong embrace from Venezuela.

Hello-I just wanted to say that your book Meridian was amazing. My parents bought it for me for my 17th birthday (October 3rd) and had you sign it at Barns and Noble last week. I finished the book this afternoon, I couldn't put it down. I can't wait to see if there is going to be a sequel to the adventures of Meridian and her protector Tens. When I was reading about them I was so drawn into the story that when the guy posing as the pastor came into the cave I started yelling at him and my dogs freaked out because they thought something was wrong. Just wanted to say you did a very good job on the book and wished you luck with your next book. Thanks - Jessica

Hi. I just wanted to send you a little note about your book, Meridian. For the first time in a VERY long time, I found myself totally engrossed in a story. Meridian was fanfrickintastic. So much so, that this morning on the way home while on our city bus, I missed my stop by about a half mile and had to walk back home lol. I loved both Meridian and Tens. They are adorable together and the buildup to their relationship was phenomenal. I loved that it didn't rush. I miss Auntie of course but I can't wait for Meridian's next adventure. So again, thanks for knocking my socks off so completely that I almost ended up back at the bus station lol.

 Hugs,

Amanda

Dear Amber,
I have just finished your book Meridian and I enjoyed it so much that I felt compelled to write you. I found your book through Amazon.com about 2 months before it was due to come out in August. I added it to my "shopping list" and picked it up at Barnes & Noble the day it came out. I didn't get a chance to start reading it until 3 days ago. You see, I have a BA degree in English and about 3 years ago I decided to go into the teaching field. My first teaching gig was with middle school kids in a low income area. If it wasn't for those kids, I would have never discovered the world of young adult literature, even though I took a children's literature course in college. I wanted to find unique ways to reach these kids, to find a connection. I found myself not only falling in love with the books I began reading but also matching books with certain students. I have always had a fascination with angels, so your book intrigued me from just reading the synopsis. But it was your prologue that shocked me, sent a little bit of a chill down my spine (I am a big sissy at times lol), and held me captive 3 nights ago. It has been a long time since a book has gotten me hooked from the first couple of pages. There were 3 things that kept popping up in my mind as I read. One, by the end of the prologue I was already playing out the story in my mind as a movie. I can see this book becoming a movie. It is in the way you write, beautiful descriptions in short sentences. What may take one author 3 sentences to describe, you have the unique ability to sum up an action or a feeling in one. Not many people can do that. Yesterday my feelings about your book becoming a movie was confirmed. I had a short break at work, so I was rapidly reading your book and a fellow teacher asked me what I was reading. I gave a short synopsis and had to put the book down for a minute to answer the phone. When I came back, my collegue was reading the prologue of Meridian and when he finished he said, "This could be a movie." The 2nd thing that kept popping up in my mind was basically about Tens. I absolutely loved him. I love the fact that he is brooding and mysterious. I could actually see him having his own book. I thought his childhood or lack-there-of was heart wrenching and made me even more curious. He is definitely Meridian's equal. Any chance for Tens own story? The last thing I was wondering by the end of the book was if this is it. I literally tried to slow myself down because I didn't want the story to end. So my question is, will Meridian be made into a series? I am so curious about Josiah and if Meridian will eventually run into other Fenestra. Anyways, I apologize for my long winded ramblings. I wanted to thank you for such a beautiful, thought provoking love story. I am already in the process of getting some of my older students to read Meridian as well as some of my close friends. I look forward to reading your future works. Thank you for your time! Sincerely,
Mia

I'm a huge fan of any dark, mysterious novel with romance and death. Naturally, I love anything to do with Vampires (except Twilight,) so I wasn't sure whether I'd like Meridian or not. I loved it. Meridian is a really great, original heroine and I wouldn't complain if Tens was my protector. I also really loved the cover; it was very beautiful and haunting. I hope you write more books like Meridian. Wish I could come to the Meridian Release Party (but I live in Canada.) Sophie

i loved your book took me all but 2 days to read it. it cought my attention and broke my heart when her heart broke. Made me cry when she had found love in her protector.  I just want to know if you would make a second part to her story?

Thankyou for the great writing
