I have been enjoying some DELICIOUS reading lately. For instance, Sandwich by Catherine Newman is so good I am reading it a second time within a week of finishing it. @librarylovefest.bsky.social

For a short time you can pre-order Wreck Your Heart from @barnesandnoble.com for 25% off. Dahlia Devine is a country and MIDwestern singer in Chicago—yes, Chicago—looking for her big break. What she gets is a big breakUP, a visit from her estranged mother, and murder. @minotaurbooks.bsky.social
