As I sat in the little lodge, I was able to very slowly download Ignite onto my kindle (It had luckily just came out). I remember once I finished it, (which didn't take long) it was really late at night and I ran up a path that went through the rain forest for a little bit to get to the only place that had wifi in the area. I would read it early in the morning, late at night, at dinner, on this little fishing boat they had, pretty much any spare time I could find. I know its terrible that i was spending so much time reading it instead of doing other things (I mean, we were in Tanzania, there was plenty of amazing things to do) but I was so caught up in it and I couldn't stop. I was traveling in Tanzania on Lake Tanganyika when I actually read the first book and I couldn't put it down, it was the only thing I would do. OH MY GOD YOU PUT UP THE GIVEAWAY FOR ENDURE I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!!!! I JUST REALIZED HOW CLOSE IT IS UNTIL THE RELEASE DATE (sort of at least.) AND I CAN'T WAIT TO READ IT I HAVE BEEN WAITING SO LONGGG!!! I just remember around a year ago I stumbled upon your book and I was so excited to read it.
