Happy Monday! Let’s have some Cover Snark! From Squee_Me: Cover snark! I’m not sure if this is the right place to share a proposed cover snark…I saw this in a Kobo 2 for 1 sale. The guy’s abs look like the Transformers Autobot logo (I know this thanks to my husband and 11 yr old kid) or maybe a face of an alien. And now I can’t unsee it. Also the tattoo and his right … Continue reading Cover Snark: Bears, Transformers, & Aliens – Oh My!

Long story short, if you’re looking for a fun thriller and you don’t mind buckling up for the long-ish haul on the romance (or if you just miss used bookstores as much as I do), give it a try!
Welcome back! Whoa, we’ve reached thirty of these things! However, I do have some news. Next week will be my last week as a bookseller at an independent bookstore. It was a very emotional decision, but my commute was starting to wear on me. That being said, Get Rec’d will still continue. Don’t you worry! How about you? Receive any great recommendations lately?

Or still too full from Thanksgiving leftovers to even think about reading? Shana: I’ve been having a tough time reading lately. But I did start the audiobook of A Marvellous Light by Freya Marske.

Wolf Gone Wild by Juliette Cross is $1.49! This was mentioned on a previous Hide Your Wallet and I’ve personally enjoyed Cross’ fantasy and paranormal romances previously. This has a witch and a werewolf pairing and sounds a lot like me catnip.

A Haunted History of Invisible Women: True Stories of America’s Ghosts is so much more than the book I thought I was getting. This book tells a lot of ghost stories, but it is also an examination of why so many ghost stories are by and/or about women and what they say about our culture and history. It’s also a critique of the business of Ghost Tours, demonstrating how they can exploit historical suffering at … Continue reading A Haunted History of Invisible Women: True Stories of America’s Ghosts by Leanna Renee Hieber and Andrea Janes
Hey, everyone! Did you know it was Wednesday? Tomorrow is Thanksgiving in the U.S. A week or so ago, I asked for some dessert suggestions. Thank you so much! I think I’m going with a chocolate mousse this year and pairing it with a cinnamon whipped cream. The mousse I’ll be making this afternoon, just so I have one less thing to do tomorrow. My partner and I also made fancy dinner reservations for the … Continue reading Links: Mascots, Artists, & More
In a New York Minute by Kate Spencer is $3.99! This is a contemporary romance with an opposites attract pairing and quite a memorable “meet cute.” Have you read this one?
