Dear Hannah,

Picked up your book from Whitford’s library. The cover intrigued me. As a secondary teacher of Drama and Art, I can honestly say it’s been a while since I have been gripped by a book...since Harry Potter. And with your book, I find myself staying awake far too late and even stealing moments away from the kids to read a little more of your book!! It’s so engaging!!! I read your book for 5 hours yesterday, much to my kids annoyment! It’s amazing to see them try everything to get me back from the “Realms”.

Honestly, I find your book uplifting and refreshing. So many lines I find I re-read because I felt enlightened by what they suggest. I wanted to send my thanks, and relief that you are working on another one. Are you selling any in UK? I want to recommend it to my sister and friends....I have also made a friend promise she will lend it after me!

Kindest regards

Dear Hannah,

OMG!! I loved this book so much. Congratulations, you have such a gift for storytelling. I will certainly be recommending this book to all the students I mentor, now and in the future. I cannot wait for book two to come out, I wait with bated breath.

Hannah, I wish you a lifetime of success, if you are ever interested in having a proof reading fan let me know, and by the way, if you are ever interested in visiting local high schools and getting the students to love reading, drop me a line.

Congratulations once again on an outstanding book.

Kind Regards

Hannah, I finished your book today. Honestly, could not put it down, it certainly has a Twilight-esque element there that gives you that "gotta know more" feeling. Really a perfect time to release this book, considering the societal flocking to stories of true, passionate love.

The concept of the portals and the spirituality of the afterlife and souls is truly very comforting for a reader, it’s almost as though you look forward to the book as escapism because you know there's really nothing to be afraid of, if you connect with your soul.

It’s very exciting and I’m so happy for you, I’m certainly anticipating the next instalment.

Hannah, I loved The Portal Opener. I love the story, the meaning behind it, and the characters. I think more people need to hear Freya's story too  :]

Dear Hannah,

We met in Berlin and I bought your book. I finished reading it shortly after, I just couldn't stop reading. It is easy to "feel" Freya and in a way some of her experiences seem so familiar to me. I cannot wait to read your next book about Freya. Your words and descriptions in the book are easy to read and understand, also for a Danish woman like me. I'm so glad you found out that your passion is writing books. You're surely an expert. If you have an e-mail list, where you send out news about book number 2, I would like to be included in this list!

Thank you and hope to see you again sometime.

Love from Inge Dicte Peters, Denmark




Hello Hannah,

Thank you for taking the time to come to the opening of Elements Gallery of Gifts.  It was a pleasure to meet you. You are a very talented young lady. I have now finished reading The Portal Opener. WOW!!!! It was one of those books that you just can't put down.  The only thing now, is that I am a bit disappointed that I can't start book two straight away!!! I guess good things come to those who wait, so I will be waiting in anticipation!

To your success,

Ailsa Postmus, Australia




Hi Hannah

I bought your book and devoured it!  I'm looking forward to part deux. I must admit, I did try stretching out my hand, palm forwards, but, alas...I didn't find myself in Australia!

Best wishes,

Ed Sharp, UK
