      <image:title>Preorder Gallery - Laptop Decal!</image:title>
      <image:caption>Need a reminder to avoid the comments? Well, use this sticker. Die cut and perfect for laptops, but also for sticking just about anywhere. Your locker. Your office. Your computer monitor. Why not slap it over the screen of your phone for maximum effectiveness! * * Don’t actually do that. Cell phones are expensive and I’m not buying you a new one again, Dave.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Preorder Gallery - Signed Bookplate!</image:title>
      <image:caption>Look at those adorable sprites! That’s Divya and Aaron in all their pixelated glory, though the gaming world of Reclaim the Sun is just a little bit more detailed. Think super fancy VR and all that. “Then why did you make them look like Super Nintendo charac-” Listen. It’s cute. “Bookplates are not bound to the rules of canon in literature.” That’s something one of my professors in graduate school said. These are 3x4 stickers and will come signed. If you need more than one, because you’re getting more books, let me know!</image:caption>

      <image:title>Preorder Gallery - Enamel Pin!</image:title>
      <image:caption>Be a cool trendsetter with an enamel pin! All the cool YA readers are doing it. This cute little enamel pin with nickel black backing will be all the rage of your backpack, jean jacket, or messenger bag.</image:caption>
