Everything I Was Feeling at Those Ages

Question:

I know you hear this a lot, but your books helped me through so much in my life. I started out younger than Alice, then became the same age, then a few years older. And it’s amazing that you still managed to convey everything I was feeling at those ages. I feel as though Alice was real, and I’m so glad you wrapped up the series as you did; I can’t imagine a better story. Thanks so much for being there without even knowing it all these years!

I’m glad I could be there for you.  And readers are now “there for me,” replying to the final book, and I appreciate that so much.
