Author: Liberty Hardy

Hello, and happy Thursday! It has already been an exciting week, both in the book world (SO MANY COVER REVEALS!) and here in Maine – because I got kittens! So as you can guess, there has not been a lot of reading getting done the last few days, because of all the cuteness, but it should be back to normal soon. Please enjoy this picture of a kitten in unicorn pajamas as you head into your weekend. And please be kind to yourself as well as others, and remember that I love you and I like you. – xoxo, Liberty

Sponsored by King of Scars by Leigh Bardugo and the Grishaverse.

No one knows what Nikolai endured in his country’s bloody civil war – and he intends to keep it that way. As the young king strives to rebuild his country and forge new alliances, the dark magic growing within him threatens to destroy all he has built. Nikolai must journey to the places where the deepest magic survives to vanquish the terrible legacy inside him. But some secrets aren’t meant to stay buried—and some wounds aren’t meant to heal. Enter the Grishaverse with this new novel from #1 New York Times-bestselling author Leigh Bardugo. Face your demons…or feed them.

She has to protect her children, but also the identity of the intruder is going to shock her. It is sure to be brilliant!

Evvie Drake Starts Over by Linda Holmes (Ballantine Books, June 25)

Holmes is the main host of NPR’s Pop Culture Happy Hour, and Evvie Drake is a fantastic novel that showcases all the wit and smarts you would expect from her, if you’re a fan of the show. (If you’ve never heard it, I suggest you fix that!) Evvie Drake is about a young widow and a burned-out ballplayer in Maine who strike up a friendship. There’s plenty of witty banter and “will they, won’t they” tension, but it’s also a freaking smart, emotionally charged story about loss. I can’t wait for everyone to read it.

What I’m reading this week.

The Assassination of Brangwain Spurge by M.T. Anderson and Eugene Yelchin

The aunt of the first victim thinks she knows how to stop it – but it might be an unforgivable act. (Note: Subterranean Press makes limited editions for collectors, so if you know a big Mira Grant/Seanan McGuire fan, this would make a great gift!)
