Hi Miss Harbour! Thorn and Jack was one of my favorite books of 2014, I love it so much! I was just wondering why the word 'emory' is capitalized in the book? Almost every mention of it has a capital letter, and I couldn't figure out why. Thank you for the amazing story, I can't wait for Briar Queen!

Katherine Harbour That's a good question! It's a publisher typo. There was a character named Jane Ivy, whose name was changed at the last minute to Jane Emory. Unfortunately, whoever did the corrections at the publisher simply autocorrected 'ivy' to 'Emory'. The paperback version of Thorn Jack and any ebook versions will be corrected. And I've made sure that doesn't happen with Briar Queen! And thank you for loving the book, despite that!
