Big Fan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love Karen's books because they are so funny and seriously help me with my school work. They help because of the ideas they give me (WOW). I have read all the Stella Etc. books and love them ALL!!! I am overdoing it on the exclamation marks like Megan from Portbay (actually on holiday in Portbay). I have read 3 Ally's world books and love them too because of the juicy plot and intriguing conflict (brill). I have read An Urgent Message Of Wowness and am half way through Marshmallow Magic And The Wild Rose Rouge! They are fab too!! I have read 2 Indie Kidd books and found them dead funny! I advise anyone and everyone to read any books by phenomenal author Karen McCombie! Happy Reading!

You are Ally Love!

I really, really, really, really (ok, you get the point!) like your books! I've read only Ally's World so far (I don't live in the UK and I can't find all your books here in India). but the way you deal with the characters and the v. funny situations is amazing! And after reading about you on the site, I'm convinced that you're a lot like Ally Love (hence the subject). Am I right? There, now you've got to reply to me to argue with me about why you are/aren't like her!

URGENT! NEED MORE ALLY'S WORLD BOOKS!

I am like the biggest fan of Ally's World – I started reading them I think like December or January but now I've nearly finished the collection. I got a postcard saying I got the book 'Daisy, Dad and the Huge Small Surprise' and now I'm going to the library to collect it, so I've got TWO more books to read now, but I want more, more, MORE Ally's World books, so please write another Ally's World book!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sadie Rocks, er rocks!!

I bought the first two 'Sadie Rocks' books yesterday, and I've nearly finished the second one! I absolutely LOVE them, and stayed up really late last night finishing the first one! When will the next one be out??? Apart from that, all I have to say is you rock, Stella Etc, Ally's World and Sadie Rocks rock, and I can't wait to read your next book!

PS I've read some of your novels too (Urgent Message of Wowness, Marshmallow Magic and My Funny Valentine)

Thoughts on Ally... with an extra added ounce of randomness:)

When I was a little kid (like 1 of Salma's kid sisters) I would always sit for hours on end, wishing that I could jump into books and do stuff with all of the characters... well here's a list of what I would do in Ally’s World (I'm gonna add some Stella Etc . madness into it as well):
1) go out to the Shingles cafe' with Alfie (mmmmmmmmmmmmm....)
2) dare Rowan to go to the Camden Market and get her hair dyed purple and pink and styled into random braids and bunches (not that it will be much of a dare for her)
3) Eat Linn’s Philadelphia Lite (yummy!)
4) Go to Jamaica with Kellie and Stella... (cool blue waters)
5) Have a sleepover with Ally, Stella, Kellie, Kyra, Sandie, Rachael, Megan, Tilda, Amber, Chloe and Salma
6) Laugh till I burst at Chloe's holiday stories in Ireland =D
Love, Natasha

Grouching

Arrrrrgghhhhhh! My cousin drives me mad! At least, she used to. I lent her one of your books (they are far to important to be given away) and guess what? She shut up! No more complaining! I can now sleep at night without having to listen to her grouching (has she been taking lessons from Linn?). Hurray! Thank you!!!!

One word!

I''m not quite sure there is a word to describe your books, Karen, but if I had to choose one I would choose PHENOMENAL!!! At first I got the 2nd book from the 'Stella ETC' series free from a magazine and after a few pages, I simply couldn't put it down! After that I BEGGED my mum (I was literally on my hands and knees!) to log onto www.amazon.com and order all of them; even the one I already read (Sweet Talking TJ)! Seriously Karen, you are my idol and I feel that no author in the WHOLE WORLD could match up to you! I want to be just like you!
Bestest wishes,
Hopeful Heather xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I had a thought...

...why not do a sort of companion book for 'Stella Etc' with Frankie's viewpoint of the first week after Stella moves? That would be cool!

PS I have ordered the Sadie Rocks books after reading the preview and can't wait!
PPS My sister wants to be in a story of yours. Now I think of it, she would be a good character as she is totally mad – 10-and-a-half years old, short, brown hair in under-chin bob, hazel eyes, glasses, Asperger's Syndrome, home-educated, can't stand me... etc etc.
