Books on Sale: Long Live Evil by Sarah Rees Brennan & More

RECOMMENDED – Sarah bursts in and says, “OH HOT DIGGITY: Long Live Evil is $2.99!” This book came out on 27 August and was a bestseller in the UK and in the US. It was recommended by both Bree Bridges and me in the Rrrrromantasy panel I moderated this weekend for Northern Hearts, AND by Courtney Milan in this week’s podcast episode.

I read this over the summer, and got a sunburn because I forgot where I was (outside, in a pool) and how long I’d been reading (awhile) and, well, I was so engrossed forgot that I’m White and I need sunscreen every 90 minutes to 2 hours.

TW/CW include: cancer, medical trauma, and also, because villainy, violence, gore, and some murdering.

Cleat Cute

I had a crappy, stressful week and I was tired and I don’t care about soccer AND YET I found Cleat Cute to be delightful.

Something to Talk About

CW: sexual harassment I first heard about Something to Talk About last year and said “oooooh,” because it has tropes and character types that I like a whole lot: Hollywood setting Ice queen lead Boss/employee relationship Tabloid photo fallout Jo Jones is showrunner for the hottest drama on TV and rumours abound that she is going to head up the next Agent Silver movie (I imagined an American James Bond). Jo has no interest in … Continue reading Something to Talk About by Meryl Wilsner →
