Okay, so when we left off Joey was having a panic attack because Kelsey left a note attached to his door saying they needed to talk. Well, those sneaky bastards at ABC wedged a rose ceremony into The Women Tell All episode, which I don’t usually recap because it’s basically a clip show. All you need to know is the note was drama blown out of proportion and Kelsey reassured Joey. He wound up sending … Continue reading Elyse Watches The Bachelor–S28 E11: I Love Him and It Hurts
I’m almost hesitant to recommend The Scarlet Alchemist, not because it’s a bad book, but because it’s a fantastic book, but the sequel doesn’t come out until (it’s estimated) October. I gobbled this book up in one sitting and now I have to sit and wait pathetically to find out what happens next. The story is set in a version of historical China where alchemists have figured out the key to immortality. The wealthy eat … Continue reading The Scarlet Alchemist by Kylie Lee Baker

Welcome back to Wednesday Links! The Boston spring has devolved back into a Boston winter this week. Typical! I don’t really mind the cold so much; it’s the wind. The wind is so brutal sometimes. My partner recently made a Trader Joe’s run and TJs is so good for fun and interesting snacks. But I have a gripe. They’re so popular and I get very overwhelmed and overstimulated in crowded areas. I want to browse, … Continue reading Links: Public Library Awesomeness, Fic Organizing, & More
Clockwork Boys by T. Kingfisher is $2.49 at Amazon! It’s available elsewhere, but not at the sale price. This is book one in the Clocktaur War series. We’re big Kingfisher fans at the Bitchery and I’ve seen this series recommended in the comments many times.
In Episode 606. Behind the Scenes of Classic Cover Art: Shirley Green and Sharon Spiak, I learned about the behind-the-scenes process of creating some of the romance covers I know very well. It was a fascinating conversation, and if you’re at all interested, there’s a transcript as well as a few pictures in the show notes. I also did a bonus episode video for the members of the podcast Patreon sharing images that Sharon and … Continue reading Vintage Cover Art Behind the Scenes with Sharon Spiak and Shirley Green
Witchful Thinking by Celestine Martin is $2.99! I believe this is Martin’s debut romance with some light, witchy vibes. This was mentioned on a previous witch-themed Hide Your Wallet. Carrie reviewed this one and gave it a B-.
This HaBO is from Layla, who wants to find this contemporary romance: I’m looking for a book that I think came out within the last two years. It’s a contemporary romance, possibly small town, and I’m pretty positive it’s on KU. I read the first chapter through the author’s newsletter but I cannot remember the author or the title and it’s driving me crazy. I’m subbed to a lot of author newsletters and I delete … Continue reading HaBO: Began in an Author’s Newsletter
The Earl Not Taken by A.S. Fenichel is $2.99! This is the first book in The Wallflowers of West Lane series and I like the cover for this one. Readers liked the heroine, but found the plot to be rather thing. Any thoughts from the Bitchery?
