That seems like something my mother would have done to me when I was a kid (if twitter were around back then). Thanks for the entertainment!

Too funny! I would be just like the mom. I've totally embarrassed my sons at home, in supermarkets, on vacation, especially at the doctor's office!!
ReplyDeleteHa! While I doubt this has much to do with the book at hand, it makes me want to read it even more!

Okay, Mominator sounds just like my mom. My mom loves to say "Whatever". ROFL!
ReplyDeleteAshhfall is on my to-read list! So, thank you for the chance to win and read it! I'm joining the blog tour!

You're absolutely right, Mandroid--it doesn't have much to do with ASHFALL. Yellowstone destroys the electrical grid, internet, and Twitter in the first chapter, so I had to make up some backstory to create a Twitter feed for Alex. You do get to meet Alex's mom and his friend Spork, though, but not on Twitter. Enjoy ASHFALL!
