I really love this one; the expressions are awesome and the energy that is has is great! It also reads very well and builds up the action nicely.

I do think that the depth in the first panel would be helped if you had placed the lamp behind her in a way that the border would cut into its shade rather than its post. The way it is now really flattens out the composition greatly. She is really rendered up so beautifully that you can't help but be drawn to her so that does help with the problem.

I also just noticed that the room is kind of sparse. I don't know if this is in the story but it could be allot more convincing as a bedroom if there were more pictures or posters on the wall and various adds and ends sprinkled about, like books on a shelf or something.

Finally, her shadow is confusing; I think mainly it is because the paper's shadow is as dark as hers. I also get the feeling (form the way that you have lighted her) that the shadow may be in the wrong spot: maybe more to the right and also skewed on the wall a bit?
