My name is FV. I’m a geek and I love my iPhone. I’m also a Karen Marie Moning fan. Imagine my reaction when I found out I could combine my geeky “loviness” of my iPhone with my slightly unhealthy obsession with Karen Marie Moning’s Fever series. That’s right folks, there’s an app for that.
Random House has created free iPhone apps for 3 of it’s best selling authors: Steve Berry, Sophie Kinsella and lucky for me, Karen Marie Moning.
I’m guessing that if these apps are successful, there will will likely be more author specific apps to come not only from Random House but other publishers as well, hopefully with more features etc. There could already be some out there but I haven’t found any for my favorite authors yet.
Here’s what you get in Karen Marie Monings app:

Here’s the home page. Click on the icons to the right to navigate or the icons on the bottom.

Here’s the news page. It’s a feed from Karen’s blog. You can leave comments from here as well.

Here’s the fun wall, you can post pictures, comments etc.

And here is what you get when you click the “more” icon. The User Accounts feature allows you to link your app to your Facebook and Twitter accounts.
I didn’t take a screen shot of the of the Books page, but it basically displays all of Karen Marie Moning’s book covers.
–Edited to add: I totally lied! If you click on the book cover, you get the book description, praise, excerpt, and a “buy the book” link. You can also Twitter and Facebook from there but you can’t edit what you tweet or post.
As you can see there is nothing over the top dazzling there but it’s still fun to have up to date KMM info if you’re a fan-kid like me. I like to be the first to grab those Fever series teasers and newsy bits and what better way than on my iPhone?
So my fellow app lovers, what are your favorite apps? Anything I shouldn’t be living without book related or otherwise? Do share!
