Pick For Me Challenge - June 2017

[Nay]

CH's don't bother me either. I got used to them during the days back before ebooks and the pressure of social media when authors used to make us wait a year between books and we didn't have a choice.

We couldn't go to their facebook page and harass them, and we couldn't post a scathing review for the entire world to see because they left us hanging. We could voice our dissatisfaction by not buying their books, but back then, if we decided to stop reading one author, there weren't nearly as many other options to take their place.

I can't guarantee it won't be cut, but as of now Ela is the lead singer in a rock band. #writingwithwine

“I really liked that last band. Who were they?”
“Ela-ment,” he says.
“Element?”
“Kind of. It’s Ela and ment. Ela-ment. It’s a play on the lead singer’s name.” He rolls his eyes, and I laugh. “It was a battle I chose not to fight.”

Thanks! I came up with it a week or so ago, but then I cut it because it didn't work where I had it.

I'm still waiting for a price drop. I mean, $16.99 AUD. Seriously? It's just because they can, and I won't pay it. Maybe the library will get it in......

:D I totally got it through the library. I wasn't paying full price for an author I didn't know well.
