Comments from the old LDSWBR website:
To Dorothy Keddington,
I absolutely LOVE your books! I borrowed them from a friend a few years ago and have been desperately searching for a place that sells all of your works since then. Can you tell me where I can buy them? -Tara White
Hey Dorothy, I am a huge fan of your work. Would you happen to have copies of your books for sale? I would love to be able to buy them. Thanks! -Roxie
To Dorothy Keddington: Absolutely love every one of your books. I read Return to Red Castle 18 years ago when I was 13 and then bought everyone of your books thereafter. They are on my bookshelf always and I love to read them again every few years.Thanks for writing such great novels. -Ada DeClark
I have been looking for Dorothy Keddington’s books for ages! (Sorry, but there’s something unethical to me in buying a used book, in barely acceptable condition, for $40! Even if it is totally worth it….) I would absolutely go crazy if they became available again. I’ve told everyone I know about them…and nobody has access to a copy. Dorothy, can’t you please get them back in print????? -Jeanette Binns
Dorothy will your new book ‘the fairy thorn’ be out by christmas? Has anyone heard anything? I love her books. I have read all of them and I’m starting to collect them. -maricela zavala
dorothy keddington helped me fall in love with books and reading. i would be OVERJOYED to read any new works of hers! and i have introduced many many friends and family to dorothy’s books and they would be just as happy for a new dorothy keddington story to get lost in. -aubrie
I first read Dorothy Keddington’s Jayhawk when my grandmother lent it to me. I loved it! I’ve since found a few more of hers at the BYU library, but I want to know if there is a way I can get a complete list of all her books. Does she have a website? Why are her books out of print? -Tiffany

I first read Jay Hawk in high school when a friend loaned it to me. She lent me the rest (of what she had) and fell in love with them! I have since purchased my own copies from various online places. Even have a signed one!
I have a daughter who needed a book to read and gave her mermaids purse. She LOVED it! I have since started to read them all again. I just heard about Fairy Thorn and can’t wait till Friday when the bookstore will get more in! Thanks for being such a great author Dorothy! Keep em coming. ;o)
I read Jayhawk first! My favorite book is Return to Red Castle, and Shadow Song. I love Dorthy’s books looking forward to a new book! I really didn’t like Aisling Eire or the Mermaid Purse! Loved Jayhawk and Flower in the wind. Love the love stories.
I have read everyone of Dorothy’s books. I had the extreme pleasure of reading Return to Red Castle when it was in manuscript form and fell in love with it. I couldn’t wait for her to finish it. I wish that she would write sequels to the first three. It would be nice to see what Jay, Angela, Jesse, Melissa, and all the others have done. Dorothy is an outstanding author that I would let anyone of any age read her books. I look forward to the new ones.
