222868 I finally finished The Husbands by Holly Gramazio . It ended rather ubruptly for me. Maybe magical realism books are just not for me becasue I didn't like the last one either (or rather didn't understand the ending to that one). Oh well.

Reminder to vote! Voting lasts through Friday. Yes, I am also sick of it, lol.

It was amazing! I was lucky to get an ARC from the publisher a few months ago, and I got to meet him at signing/launch near me. He was super nice!

222868 I'm still working on the audio of The Husbands by Holly Gramazio . I've started fast forwarding a bit to get through it. I just want to know how it ends at this point. I do not like the main character at all.

Voting reminder! :)

222868 ooh some exciting news - Bookshop.org is beta testing their ebook app/site. Soon when you purchase ebooks you can support an indpependent bookstore! And all books in the catalog using Draft 2 Digital will have the same pricing across the board on all marketplaces (same on amazon, apple, bookshop, etc.) and they will have a subscription service like KU. To start, books will be available on whatever device you use - ios or android, but they will be coming out with their own e-ink reading device next year.

The launch should be end of summer/early fall. I'm really looking forward to this since I do both print and ebooks. I can buy ebooks from myself now too, lol.

222868 I finished a fantastic audio book How to Plot a Payback by Melissa Ferguson . The male narrator was amazing - really acted it out and had me laughing at times. 5* for me

Also just finished an audiobook of Savor It by Tarah Dewitt which I liked but this one the male narrator wasn't to my liking, only becasue you could hear him breathing too loudly, lol. It was a good book and I teared up at the end, but it did have a happy ending.

I'm hoping to start Falling for Gage by Mia Sheridan soon after I finish whatever Immortal After Dark book I'm reading now, I don't even know the title, lol

I also have and ARC to get to from my friend who's an independent author (who I suggested join this group so if you're out there Jamie- hi!) The Vampires of 1863 by J.M. Celi which is a prequel to his Conviction (The Unlife of Lisa Cooper, #1) by J.M. Celi , which I still have to read and sells pretty well in my store.

Is anyone here goodreads librarian? I know there's an updated cover and other info for the Vampires of 1863 and no idea how that stuff gets updated.

222868 If anyone wants to try Libro.fm for audiobooks, now is a good time. They're running an Independent Bookstore Day special - new members get 2 free credits with code SWITCH (so 3 the first month for 14.99), and you can pause or cancel at any time and not lose unused credits. They're also winding up for a huge sale (you don't have to be a member to buy books, but memebers do get an extra 30% off books when not using acredit, including sale items). Here's my store link if you want to learn more.

And if there's an indie bookstore near you check to see if they are doing the golden ticket promo on independent bookstore day 4/27 - find the golden ticket in the store and win a year of audiobooks (12 credits).

222868 If anyone wants a signed copy of Patricia Briggs Winter Lost (Mercy Thompson, #14; Mercy Thompson World, #20) by Patricia Briggs I always order from a store in WA - Patti hand signs them and usually draws a little coyote inside. I just ordered mine (and I'm in MA and I own a bookstore, lol).
The store is Adventures Underground.
Here's the preorder link

222868 I finished Riley Thorn and the Dead Guy Next Door (Riley Thorn, #1) by Lucy Score a few days ago, and I'm on book 2 now Riley Thorn and the Corpse in the Closet (Riley Thorn, #2) by Lucy Score . These are fun. If you like Stephanie Plum and Charley Davidson you'd probably like these.
