Finale

Management—thanks for having my back.
    I love my books’ covers, and applaud James Porto and Lucy Ruth Cummins for their artwork and creativity.
    Thanks to Lisa Martin, fan extraordinaire, who bid on a character name to benefit Kids Need to Read—your generosity is appreciated, and now you’re immortalized in this book!
    To the many booksellers and librarians working on the front lines: If you’ve ever shared
Hush, Hush
with a reader, I owe you a high five. In the meantime, consider this thank-you
just for you.
    Since
Hush, Hush
was published, I’ve had the amazing opportunity to travel abroad and meet readers all over the world. None of this would have been possible without my
international publishers. Special thanks to my friends at Simon & Schuster UK, Simon & Schuster Australia, Simon & Schuster Canada, Piemme Freeway, and Lattès.
    Finally, a note to my readers. What an amazing three years! Thank you for being such a fun audience to write for. Thank you for your letters of support, for coming to my events, and for falling
in love with Patch, Nora, Vee, and Scott. I look forward to writing for you in the future.
