The #LittleFreeLibrary becomes an import business rather than an export business when somebody leaves an #AnnPatchett novel. 😍📚

In case you missed it.

.Tom Straw's globetrotting, culinary inspired spy thriller, THE ACCIDENTAL JOE, is 'a sophisticated smorgasbord of suspense ... which boasts a heaping load of originality with undertones of deep-rooted tradition.'

It was both an honor and a whole lot of fun to talk to Harlan Coben about resurrecting his beloved character Myron Bolitar in THINK TWICE (@GrandCentralPub) -- an instant #1 NY Times bestseller -- for CrimeReads.

Little excites mom more than when a new issue of #MagnoliaJournal arrives! Thank you, magnolia & Joanna Gaines.

36 years ago ... and we'd still do anything for Gloria Estefan. 😍

#SignatureSundays : From this moment forward, I am officially going by the title'Magnificent Bastard'! Because my personally inscribed copy of Tom Straw's THE ACCIDENTAL JOE ordains me as such. Be on the lookout for updated business cards ... 😃📚✍️

About last night. The gallant Tom Straw is not only a damn fine writer - THE ACCIDENTAL JOE proves that - but the consummate showman. It was an honor to be under the bright lights with him at RJ Julia Booksellers. And I would have said that even had a bottle of wine not exchanged hands.

What they (the Book Cougars Podcast) said! A great night at RJ Julia Booksellers with the riotous Tom Straw -- and surprise guest Emily Fine! More to come tomorrow, when my brain has had a chance to recover ... 🤩

Trust in Luanne Rice. 😊

If you think you've got it all figured out ... THINK TWICE.

Go get it! You won't regret it.

Today, I'm giving myself an A for Adequate. Because sometimes good enough is good enough.

Prince ... of darkness! But that'll be our little secret. 🤫

Duty calls! I'll have the honor of stepping in to moderate Tom Straw at RJ Julia Booksellers in Madison this Wednesday (May 15) at 6 PM. You don't want to miss his new espionage thriller, THE ACCIDENTAL JOE, which serves up a sophisticated smorgasbord of suspense.

On mornings like this one, the coffee pot is my best friend. ☕️

Happy Mother's Day to all who mother, in name and in essence! I am thankful for my mom every single day. I am who I am because of who she is. (The good parts, anyway ...) ❤️

I just finished Riley Sager's nostalgic chiller, MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT (out 6/18 from Dutton Books). At one point or another, I suspected ... everybody. Which means I was right! 👻
