So many books (to review), so little time!

My apologies to all authors who have given me (free) books to read in exchange for a review and for whom I have not yet written one… oh, and there are unfortunately so many more than I wish there were! In response to this backlog I have stopped requesting and/or accepting so many for review. This makes me sad, but, I think, is more honest and respectful of the hard work authors put into their books. In any case, I’m going to attempt to clear the backlog a bit by posting some shorter-than-usual reviews over the next several days/weeks. To keep me on track, here’s a list (picture me hanging my head in shame):

That list is only the books I’ve already read. I also have quite a few I haven’t yet read:

  • Vulnerable – Patricia Loofbourrow
  • Denmark Veseys Garden – Ethan J. Kytle and Blain Roberts, via NetGalley
  • Marabel and the Book of Fate – Tracy Barrett, via NetGalley
  • The Sun Does Shine: How I Found Life and Freedom on Death Row – Anthony Ray Hinton with Lara Love Hardin, via NetGalley
  • 100 Days of Mental Health – Paul Green
  • American Wolf – Nate Blakeslee, via NetGalley
  • The Art of Hiding – Amanda Prowse, via NetGalley
  • Bored and Brilliant – Manoush Zomorodi, via NetGalley
  • Holding – Graham Norton, via NetGalley
  • No Problem, Mr. Walt – Walt Hackman

SO, as I write the reviews I’ll pop back in here and link to the book and my review. AND, keep in mind, this list does not at all include books I’ve purchased or acquired by other means and hope to review someday…

Wish me luck!

Exciting New Releases!

Just popping in to let you all know that two books I edited last year were published in the last few weeks! This is really exciting for me, so I can’t imagine how exciting/nerve-wracking it is for the authors! Do yourself and the authors a favor and pop over to Amazon and buy a copy. Book titles link to Amazon and author names link to the authors’ websites, where you can read more about these lovely ladies!

Life According to Beatrice by Anna Marie

Rafferty Lincoln Loves… by Emily Williams

Rafferty Lincoln Loves... by [Williams, Emily]

PS – I have no financial interest in the sales of these books – I just am honored to have been a part of their creation and want to support Anna and Emily on their writing and publishing journeys!

Cover Reveal: Rafferty Lincoln Loves…

I am SO excited to share with you that Emily Williams, author of the wonderful Letters to Eloise, has revealed the cover of her upcoming YA novel, Rafferty Lincoln Loves…

My excitement is two-fold: I proofread the book(!) so I feel personally invested, AND it’s fantastic! This book and another I recently beta read have piqued my interest in the YA genre.

Anyway — go here to Emily’s site for more info on the book and the charity it will support and here to read a wonderful interview with Emily.

Oh! and go HERE to preorder 🙂 The book is available February 14th!

Enjoy 🙂
