First and foremost, I have to thank the readers and book bloggers.
I’ve said it before but it bears repeating—I could never have gotten this far without all your support and encouragement.
I want to thank you all by name, but if I did that, the acknowledgments would become a novel itself.
So I just want to say thank you to every person who read Switched, told their friends about it, left a review, tweeted about it, blogged about it, or liked it on Facebook, thank you a million times over.
I want to thank my mom for being ridiculously supportive and understanding in all my endeavors, no matter how insane or far out they might be.
The actions of the mothers in this book—namely, Kim and Elora—in no way reflect my experiences with my own mother or my stepmom.
Both of them are caring, intelligent, strong women who have always had my back and loved me even when I didn’t deserve it.
I need to thank my platonic lifemate/roommate Eric Goldman for being the only person in the whole world who can tolerate my random but frequent obsessions, the sheer volume of my voice, and the fact that I spend more time with people I make up in my head than with people in the real world.
I can’t forget the rest of the Clique—Fifi, Valerie, Greggor, Pete, Matthew, Bronson, and Baby Gels.
You guys are the greatest friends in the whole world.
Seriously.
I have no idea why you’re friends with me, but I’m grateful for it every day.
