Thoughts on Emblaze...PHOENIX!!!

Phoenix!!!! One of the main reasons that I love Emblaze is because there is a chapter with his Point Of Veiw in it!

IKR??? I LOVE PHOENIX!!!!! and his little chapter made me cry....:'( I love him sooo much, Violet can have Lincoln, but I WANT PHOENIX!!!!!!

Yay! Another Phoenix fan!!! Phoenix has such depth of character!!!

OMG GUESS WHAT???? I STILL HAVEN'T GOT ENDLESS!!! but my bros in hospital so theres no time at the moment.)
But i read the first chapter from my friends book, but she;s still reading it so... yeah, BUT IREAD THE FIRST CHAPTER!!! (view spoiler)[ LOL Evelyn knocking out her husband... (hide spoiler)]

I hope your bro is ok and it isn't anything to serious! Sucks that you haven't got it yet :( YAY for reading the 1st chapter!!! Hopefully you can get it soon but your bro comes 1st :) LOL about Evelyn :)

Yeah my bro comes first...maybe I can get it sometimes this weekend...(.)_(.)
IKR? errr, about Evelyn I mean...(view spoiler)[and'fess up about Lincoln, Violet!! (hide spoiler)]

Just to let everyone know, Emblaze will be coming out in America and U.K in March 2013, so 6 months to go for all those overseas!
(Looks like there's no cover yet!)

I know both Emblaze and Endless are in the apple app store (itunes). not sure if the itunes store is universal or country dependant or not.

as in the ebook thing?

yeah as an ebook, technically an ibook being from apple but you can get adobe digital editions for free from the adobe website if you want to read it on a computer or some other program that will open .epub files. Not sure if apps are available for tablets or if any of the ereaders can open that kind of file.

You MUST read Endless ASAP!

I JUST WENT TO THE SHOPS.....AND THEY STILL DON'T HAVE IT AND I AM SOOOO MAD!!!!! stupid stupid stupoid shops....
WHERE DID YOU GUYS BUY YOURS????
Help....I am slowly dying here, as I have been for the last 2 WEEKS WHILE EVERYONE ELSE GETS TO READ IT!!!! :(
I want Endless!

I got mine at Dymocks. Maybe try ringing the local stores with books and ask them if they have it or when they will get it. Costs more from Dymocks then it does from Kmart and Big W but they usually get it in quicker.

Do you know where a near Dymocks is? I think there's one in the city...

thats a link to the store locator. i don't know melb so there might be one closer to you but there is one on Collins St. Hope that helps.

THANKYOU SOOO MUCH!!!!! after school tomorrow guess where I'm going...;)

Awesome. If you look for Endless on the website it can tell you if they have it in stock.

YAY!!! XD

SOOOOOOOOOOO excited for you!!!!!!!! Really hope you get it!!!!

I REALLY REALLY REALLY HOPE I GET IT TOO!!! and I am excited!!!! XD

New cover for Emblaze - overseas edition due for release in March 2013!

Its different then how i pictured things.

I know, the books are getting lighter! purple then indigo and now blue...so at least endless might be green like australia's!

'You smell of winter dew at the crack of dawn and when you use your power it feels like being submerged in the most intoxicating vanilla cream that i lose myself in it every time and... And you were beautiful,' he blurted out, catching us both by surprise. But he went on, ignoring that fact my hand was still slipping. 'So stunning in the dress the other night i could hardly look at you it hurt so much. You are the thing i dread the most in myself, Violet, because... I love you so much that i can't trust myself. I'd die for you, give up all my power for you, I'd give you my soul in an instant, even if it meant i had to spend eternity in torment- just for one moment with you as mine. Wanting you consumes me. I dread you because I know the risk but I'm so selfish i want you anyway. I'd take you even though it could kill you.'

I LOVED this part soo much!! Lincoln confessing his true feelings to Violet! He loves her soo much ;)

OMG I CRIED IN THIS PART!! I WAS SOBBING! Ha ha ha, but then again, I cried in every book, except Embrace.
But Phoenix! omg how funny when he took her from the roof! ha ha ha, and then in the boat! LOL!

Renee and I both LOVE Phoenix but we do like Linc and we see that he is good for Vi.

I loved that part. Linc is such a sweet guy

Yeah Linc is a good guy and loves her so much that he would do anything for her, even give up his powers or life for her..
I do feel sorry for Phoenix though, you can see that he does love her, but also hates her..

I really don't think that he has ever really hated her. I think he is just heartbroken and doesn't really understand how he is feeling or what to do with what he feels. With everything that he has done with her, he has always been really careful to make sure that anything doesn't happen to her that she is not going to heal from. He has even beat up and destroyed some of the fallen for hurting her.

True, I guess he hated that she rejected him, not exactly hating her but is heartbroken and confused as you said. I just hope in the end that Phoenix finds the sense of belonging that he has been looking for.

I agree! He deserves something good to go his way.

i think he's stuck in between what others want him to be and who is wants to be. It's so hard for him! I'm writing a song about him, because he's too gorgeous!

EMBLAZE IS NOW OUT IN AMERICA AND UK!!!!

yeah you didnt had to add the book image so many times lol :P

I was excited! ha ha!

I know Lincoln is like a great guy and would do anything to save Violet but I don't know why I love Phoenix better he's just whats the word.......HOT in every single way.

Yes! I love Phoenix too! So much! ^_^ Did you vote on the poll for Phoenix or Lincoln or someone else?

I was only kidding Renee you know that :P

yeah I know. :)
But now people overseas know about Emblaze so I'm happy! I can discuss it more!!!!

Hang on, you've read them all, right Maria?

If i havent i wouldnt be here to discuss it so openly you know.. ;) Ofcource i did all of them! ;)

Aren't you in America? Did you get Endless on e-book or something?

Nop not every reader lives in US sorry! As an ebook but i am going to order them from fishpond to have!

yay! endless! I've leant my copy to someone, and they've had it for a while now....I must make them give it back, I want to read it again!
Sorry I thought you were in US. My bad. :)

I know it is weird what a Greek person have to do with An Aussie author :P

To be on topic Emblaze was good,not as good as the previous ones, but still good there was a quote Linc said that stayed for me for a very long time back then when i was reading! Plus the even is happenning to Santorini which is a Greek Island :P

OMG I REALLY REALLY REALLY WANT TO GO TO SANTORINI!!!
I didn't know you were greek! omg that's awesome!
I actually really liked Emblaze, they seemt to get better as they go on! And omg best phoenix quite that made me cry in emblaze!

“Love will kill us all." He said sadly. "First it makes us lie furiously so we can be what me must in order to appear deserving. Then, it tears us apart with raw truth."

so sad and sweet and I really felt so bad for phoenix and I love him so much!

Emblaze was one of my favourites so far in the series.

It looks like to some degree our favourite books are influenced by which characters we prefer more.

And YAY for the UK and US finally being able to read this awesome book! :) :) :) :) :) :) !!!

WHOOOP WHOOOOP!!!!! I was so happy! And now there are more people liking the Emblaze quotes! I should add more, I just got all my books back from being lent. :) yay! took about 3 months! :O
