So I’ve followed you for awhile and I’ve been wanting to read your books. The only thing I don’t know is where I should start/ in what order I should read them in. What’s your recommendation? Also your hair looks fab btw.

Hi! Thank you for the compliment, first of all. :D Second, sorry for the delay, it has been a day and a half. So here’s the order you’ll (probably) want to read them in:

Blindside Hit

Roughing (standalone, but with appearances of the characters from BH, you don’t really need to have read it for it to make sense)

Odd Man Rush (also standalone, roughly concurrent w/Roughing, with appearances of characters from Roughing and BH)

Power Play (standalone, set after Roughing/OMR but not by much. Mentions of characters from other novels but no cameos “onscreen”. This is probably the truest standalone in that sense.)

Double Shifting (standalone, set after Power Play with mentions of characters from Roughing but again, no actual appearances. However, I do recommend you at least read Roughing before this one because it’s the old team of one of the main characters of that novel, and as such he’s mentioned fairly frequently. It will probably make more sense if you read that one first.)

carter91 said: It’s similar to here kind of, in that people only have a vague idea of where stuff was at. Like someone told me to pick something up at the nearest Old Navy. That would be 200 miles away in Billings or 150 miles to Missoula. But let me run out and get that for you. Montana takes 10+ hours to cross but sure, it’ll only take a minute to get somewhere.

I don’t expect people from other areas to inherently know where Buffalo is on a map because I don’t know the geography of most other states that well either (however, my personal feeling is that any time you write about a location that is unfamiliar to you, you should at the very least look it up on a map). It more bothers me about people “downstate” not bothering to learn, when I KNOW that we are all forced to learn the history of NYS like. every year over and over from 3rd-7th grade. and part of that included geography. enough to at least realize that the rest of the state is big, and things are most likely not all next to each other.
