I adore #HannahBonamYoung, & simply fell in love with PEOPLE WATCHING. Her characters are always complex & real, with damage & hope, & hard fought growth that feels so satisfying to read. ❤️ #ewgc @penguinrandomhouse.bsky.social

THIEF OF NIGHT is the welcome & well crafted end to the Charlatan duology, where Charlie continues to cause chaos & endanger her life in her quest to steal her shadow boyfriend’s memories (& heart) from an evil cabal. #ewgc @torbooks.bsky.social @hollyblack.bsky.social

THE WASP TRAP was compulsive, thrilling fun by @markedwardsauthor.bsky.social. After 25 years apart, six university friends gather to honor a mentor’s death- but before the night is over, more bodies will join his. @ssedlib.bsky.social @atriabooks.bsky.social

PITCHER PERFECT is fake dating fun between a playboy hockey rookie & a no-nonsense softball pitcher. It was a blast- sweet & spicy! #ewgc #TessaBailey @avonbooks.bsky.social @librarylovefest.bsky.social

Hello, Galley Chatters! Hope everyone is well, and is enjoying their summer! #ewgc

It was nice chatting with everyone! I hope to see some of you in person at ALA Annual at the end of the month! #ewgc

In THE WOMAN IN SUITE 11, we get the return of Lo Blacklock (from The Woman in Cabin 10). It's ten years after her first brush with murder, but the past seems to be colliding with her present. Is she in over her head again? Probably! #ewgc @ruthwarewriter.bsky.social ‪@simonandschuster.bsky.social

HOW TO SURVIVE A HORROR STORY by Mallory Arnold was a blast! 7 writers gather for the will reading of a recently deceased horror author icon- but find that they’re about to participate in a real life horror story. Disturbing and fun! #ewgc @poisonedpenpress.bsky.social @sbkslibrary.bsky.social

I have to add to the love for THE ENCHANTED GREENHOUSE, the cozy fantasy that was a more than worthy follow up to its companion, The Spellshop. It made my heart so happy! #ewgc @sarahbethdurst.bsky.social @macmillanlib.bsky.social

SILVERCLOAK is the first entry in a highly anticipated trilogy, where Saffron goes undercover to avenge her parents murderers and risks her own life (& heart) in the process. I loved every page & can't wait for more! #ewgc @penguinbooksusa.bsky.social

THE WITCH’S GUIDE TO MAGICAL INNKEEPING is utterly delightful- A witch seeks to regain her lost powers w/the help of a complex spell, a potential love interest, a talking fox & a found family of misfits. #ewgc @penguinbooksusa.bsky.social

Lisa Scottoline’s latest, THE UNRAVELING OF JULIA, is a gothic style thriller with plenty of twists and turns, and a heaping helping of the mystical realm. Sound like your style? It releases on July 29th! #ewgc‪ @hachettelibrary.bsky.social @lisascottoline.bsky.social

IMMORTAL BY MORNING is the latest in the Argeneau vampire romance thriller series. Lynsay Sands always entertains, & this story about a handsome detective & a house sitter who stumbles across a skeleton includes steamy romance and just the right amount of thrills! #ewgc @harpercollins.bsky.social

Any galley chatters getting ready for ALA annual? I'm counting the days! #ewgc

Barnes has definitely earned a place on my “if they write it, I’ll read it” author list. COLD STORAGE is a chef’s kiss of a sci-fi horror. Lots of gruesome, chilling fun! @macmillanlib.bsky.social @torbooks.bsky.social #ewgc

Horror (among many other genres) is my jam, so I am eager to dive into the twisted world of BAT EATER AND OTHER NAMES FOR CORA ZENG. The @harpercollins.bsky.social publication releases April 2nd, but in the meantime I have this awesome @illumicrate.bsky.social Evernight version! 😍 #ewgc

Any Rebel Blue Ranch fans out there? WILD AND WRANGLED, the 4th & final book in this delightful contemporary romance series comes out April 15th and I’m equally excited to read & sad to see the series end. I’m going to miss these characters! ❤️ #ewgc @penguinrandomhouse.bsky.social

I’m so excited that there’s another Molly the Maid mystery coming out! THE MAID’S SECRET (book #3) releases 4/8, & I cannot wait! 🤩 #ewgc @penguinrandomhouse.bsky.social

My one-sided love affair with everything Abby Jimenez continues with SAY YOU’LL REMEMBER ME. Unforgettably romantic, yet full of sadly realistic relationship drama, I was completely hooked by these characters & loved that they fought so hard for their HEA. #ewgc @hachettelibrary.bsky.social

FIREBIRD is the 1st book in a historical romantasy series that matches a Roman general (who happens to be a dragon shifter) with a fiery rebel w/magical powers. When these opposing forces discover that they are fated mates, they will take on the world to be together. #ewgc @macmillanlib.bsky.social

Good afternoon, my galley chatting friends! I’m in the process of making a nice cup of tea while warming up my computer in anticipation of lots of bookish content on #ewgc!

Any Emily Wilde fans out there? The final book in the trilogy, EMILY WILDE’S COMPENDIUM OF LOST TALES is publishing Feb 11th, & it is the perfect send off for our clever, curmudgeonly Emily and her love, the irresistible Fae King Wendell. Unmissable! #ewgc

Pam Jenoff can always be relied on for well researched, engaging historical fiction with great characters & vivid settings, & her latest WW II novel is one that fans of the genre will not want to miss. #ewgc

I love a flawed main character that you can’t help rooting for, & when you add in wealthy elite behaving badly? Chef’s kiss, for sure! That must be why I flew through A GIRL LIKE US by Anna Sophia McLoughlin. What a blast! #ewgc @sbkslibrary.bsky.social

I just read my first book by Juliette Cross, A REBEL WITHOUT CLAWS, and this paranormal romance was a heck of a good time! I definitely need to check out her other novels. #ewgc

BEARTOOTH by Callan Wink is a hardscrabble survival story focusing on two brothers attempting to get ahead (or just stay afloat!) against innumerable challenges. The writing & characterizations were sneakily addicting. A quick & very engaging read! #ewgc

My first book of 2025 was CLOSE YOUR EYES AND COUNT TO 10. I loved the main character (a single mother who joins a reality tv game that turns deadly) & the suspenseful plot, which had my eyes glued to the page. Lisa Unger never disappoints!

Hello! I'm a little late, but eager to talk about books- what better way to kick off the New Year?! #ewgc
