Was talking to a friend today and read her a couple quotes from Mindscape by @andreahairston.bsky.social
She got a copy while we were talking.
Can't wait to hear her thoughts. So glad more people I know are picking this one up.

Yeah, 100%. I blocked the author who posted that. When people you've known online for almost 20 years show who they are, believe them. There's no defense for supporting JKR. Her response was telling.

I've wanted to do a series called The Mystery In, featuring books that fall outside traditional crime fiction genre lines, but feature many crime fiction elements.
