Hi all! I'm back today with a feature post on a blog tour for A Higher Standard by E.F. Dodd. Thank you to Smith Publicity for sending me a copy of the book and organizing the tour. As a bona fide horse girl, I am so excited to read this one. It's out already today, so run to Sugar Beaver Books to grab your copy!
Summary: Staunchly independent horsewoman Everest has her heart set on expanding the reach of her equine rescue, Second Chance Farms. But when Boston real estate developer Gideon West rolls in from the big city, hoping to buy the land next door, Everest’s plans, and a good portion of her life, are turned upside down. In E.F. Dodd’s steamy new contemporary romance, A Higher Standard, Everest and Gideon stand at odds at first, but their intense feelings for each other soon morph into a different type of heat. Much to Everest’s dismay, Gideon is welcomed by almost everyone in her hometown of Mimosa, North Carolina. But Everest doesn’t trust his silver tongue or the promises it makes, and she’s determined to protect her town – and the rescue – from his plans. Everest Kennedy is a gigantic, yet gorgeous, thorn in Gideon’s side. She doesn’t trust him, or his intentions for Mimosa and isn’t shy about letting him – or anyone else – know it. To win the day, he’s got to woo her over to his side. Except . . . the more time he spends with Everest, it becomes less about winning the day and more about wooing the girl. Can Gideon have Everest and his development, or will one cost him the other? A Higher Standard is perfect for fans of Sally Thorne, Sophie Kinsella, and Emily Henry. Filled with witty banter, realistic conflict, and a true-to-themselves heroine, this spicy romance will leave you desperate for more!

Hi all! Beneath the Crimson Willow by Martin Niewood came out on January 12th, and I'd love to share an excerpt of it with you today. Hit the read more button below for the full text, and read the synopsis below to see if you'd like to find out more. Life on the run has been hard for Violet Noone and her family, and it's about to get harder. While pursued by the authorities and the Marked, a secret organization focused on revenge, Violet is approached by a mysterious stranger. She is blackmailed into solving the brutal murder of Georgina Givens, a victim of the poisonous compound, Unelse. The investigation reveals that religious, political, and corporate forces might be at play, although Violet can't rule out the possibility that Georgina's husband, Leonard, may be the murderer. Georgina and her husband were no strangers to criminal schemes and Violet quickly uncovers the connection between the theft of valuable intelligence and Georgina's death. Pursuing each lead, Violet slips deeper into a world of conspiracy and lies and learns she can trust no one. Beset by their own demons, her family is unable to support her, forcing a seventeen-year-old Violet to accept unwelcomed truths about herself and face challenges well beyond her years. This time, Violet is on her own. With her enemies closing in, she must unravel the mystery, retrieve the intelligence, and solve the murder. But can she do it before the Marked find her? Although outwardly ordinary, this house was filled with secrets. The mounted security cameras around the property were concealed in such a way that casual observers might not spot them. A thick layer of decaying leaves covered the ground, and the surrounding trees isolated the home from others in the neighborhood. Stepping over a metal hose, as we made our way to the back of the property, I followed Leonard’s movements carefully, recalling his previous disclosures about various snares. I spotted a small but explosive anti-personnel mine intended to deter intruders as we passed through the gate.
Reaching the back door, Leonard swiped his band. Generally, a single swipe would allow access to one’s private residence, but Leonard and Georgina had installed a secondary security system involving an alpha-numeric code and an electronic keypad. Leonard tapped the buttons and the door clicked open. Turning the knob, we stood in a large but unimpressive kitchen. From our vantage point we could see most of the first floor. The kitchen led into a dining room and a small entry hall for the front door. Immediately to the left of the hall, was the living room and behind it a single bedroom and bath. Leonard and Georgina were either not good at their chosen profession or they hid their money elsewhere. One thing was certain, their ill-gotten gains were not spent on their home. Hi all! I want to highlight an upcoming 2021 release for you. Rebel Daughter will come out February 9th--sooner than we think! Get your preorders in! I'm working with the author on a number of exciting things to celebrate Rebel Daughter's release, so check back soon for some news on that front. In the meanwhile, I'm working on my review (Thank you to Lori and the #GetUnderlined team for sharing an ARC!) so watch my reviews page for new updates. Author Website Preorder Links A young woman survives the unthinkable in this stunning and emotionally satisfying tale of family, love, and resilience, set against the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 CE. Esther dreams of so much more than the marriage her parents have arranged to a prosperous silversmith. Always curious and eager to explore, she must accept the burden of being the dutiful daughter. Yet she is torn between her family responsibilities and her own desires; she longs for the handsome Jacob, even though he treats her like a child, and is confused by her attraction to the Roman freedman Tiberius, a man who should be her sworn enemy. Meanwhile, the growing turmoil threatens to tear apart not only her beloved city, Jerusalem, but also her own family. As the streets turn into a bloody battleground between rebels and Romans, Esther's journey becomes one of survival. She remains fiercely devoted to her family, and braves famine, siege, and slavery to protect those she loves. This emotional and impassioned saga, based on real characters and meticulous research, seamlessly blends the fascinating story of the Jewish people with a timeless protagonist determined to take charge of her own life against all odds. I want to spotlight a criminally (*haha,* a pun you'll get when you read the synopsis!) underrated book: The Last Best Story by Maggie Lehrman! I first picked up the novel at the library a few years ago, fell in love, and promptly rediscovered my love when I purchased a copy during a pandemic shopping spree. So! Reasons to read, and a bonus movie recommendation! You need to read this book. Cover and synopsis, because obviously you want to know more! Rose Regnero was a star reporter for her high school paper, destined for a career in journalism, when she abruptly quit two months ago, leaving behind her very-nearly-sort-of-boyfriend and editor-in-chief, Grant. Now she is trying to be normal at her senior prom, with a new boy and new interests, and isn’t looking back. Grant was totally blindsided when Rose walked away from the Gazette. After all, they’d dedicated their lives to it for the past four years, had even planned on majoring in journalism together at Northwestern—which is why Grant is determined to entice Rose back. But whether it’s really to the paper or to him he’s not entirely sure. When an alarm is set off at prom and the school goes on lockdown, Grant discovers that someone is loose in the building with a gun. But Rose, caught outside of the gym, knows differently. Will her instincts for a good story win out against her resolve to leave Grant and the paper behind? This is going to sound incredibly rude, but I'm actually not sure you'll like this book. I'm one of 50 other Goodreads reviewers who rated it 5 stars, one of 161 people who gave it 4 or 5 stars. A majority (169 people) rated it 3 stars. HOWEVER. A lot of you hold my opinion in high esteem (seriously. A flatteringly large amount of people) and I'm asking you to give it a chance. There's so much to like.

It's such a hilarious film that'll definitely cheer you up for an evening. Smart, aged well (as of 12/14/20), not afraid to trust its audience. I've seen it three times in isolation and it never fails to get me laughing. This is... basically a mini-review in the form of me professing my love for Today Tonight Tomorrow. However, I am changing it up a bit around here and instead sharing 5 reasons to read! I must first state that I knew about T3 loooong before I bought it, having seen booktwt collectively freak out about it upon release. I, a fool, waited months before buying it, not knowing that I was about to fall in love twenty million times. Y'all, you need to read this book. Before I explain why, here's the cover and synopsis. The Hating Game meets Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist by way of Morgan Matson in this unforgettable romantic comedy about two rival overachievers whose relationship completely transforms over the course of twenty-four hours. Today, she hates him. It’s the last day of senior year. Rowan Roth and Neil McNair have been bitter rivals for all of high school, clashing on test scores, student council elections, and even gym class pull-up contests. While Rowan, who secretly wants to write romance novels, is anxious about the future, she’d love to beat her infuriating nemesis one last time. Tonight, she puts up with him. When Neil is named valedictorian, Rowan has only one chance at victory: Howl, a senior class game that takes them all over Seattle, a farewell tour of the city she loves. But after learning a group of seniors is out to get them, she and Neil reluctantly decide to team up until they’re the last players left—and then they’ll destroy each other. As Rowan spends more time with Neil, she realizes he’s much more than the awkward linguistics nerd she’s sparred with for the past four years. And, perhaps, this boy she claims to despise might actually be the boy of her dreams. Tomorrow…maybe she’s already fallen for him. "Oookayy…." you're saying. "So what's the big deal?" Well. I can answer that with five reasons to read Today Tonight Tomorrow!!
**Disclaimer: that bookshop link is an affiliate link, which means I’ll earn a commission from your purchase. More info in my sidebar! Hi y’all! Doing a book spotlight today for One Way or Another by Kara McDowell, which is out October 6! I hope you’ll preorder this amazing book or request a copy from your library! Below is the (wonderful) cover, synopsis, and five reasons to read! Plus, an added bonus reason from Kara herself! The average person makes 35,000 decisions every single day. That's about 34,999 too many for Paige Collins, who lives in debilitating fear of making the wrong choice. The simple act of picking an art elective is enough to send her into a spiral of what-ifs. What if she's destined to be a famous ceramicist but wastes her talent in drama club? What if there's a carbon monoxide leak in the ceramics studio and everyone drops dead? (Grim, but possible!) That's why when Paige is presented with two last-minute options for Christmas vacation, she's paralyzed by indecision. Should she go with her best friend (and longtime crush) Fitz to his family's romantic mountain cabin? Or should she accompany her mom to New York, a city Paige has spent her whole life dreaming about? Just when it seems like Paige will crack from the pressure of choosing, fate steps in -- in the form of a slippery grocery store floor -- and Paige's life splits into two very different parallel paths. One path leads to New York where Paige falls for the city . . . and the charms of her unexpected tour guide. The other leads to the mountains where Paige might finally get her chance with Fitz . . . until her anxiety threatens to ruin everything. However, before Paige gets her happy ending in either destiny, she'll have to face the truth about her struggle with anxiety -- and learn that you don't have to be "perfect" to deserve true love.

The Theft of Sunlight by Intisar Khanani
I did not choose this fate. But I will not walk away if I can make a difference. Children have been disappearing from Menaiya for longer than Amraeya ni Ansarim can remember. When her best friend’s sister disappears, Rae knows she can’t stay silent any longer. She finds the chance to make a difference in an invitation to the palace. But Rae struggles to fit in with the lords and ladies of the court. Instead, she finds unexpected help in a rough-around-the-edges thief named Bren who always seems to have her best interests at heart. Soon even Bren can’t help her, and Rae must risk her life and well-being to face an evil that lurks in the shadows of the darkest hearts.
Intisar Khanani grew up a nomad and world traveler. Born in Wisconsin, she has lived in five different states as well as in Jeddah on the coast of the Red Sea. She first remembers seeing snow on a wintry street in Zurich, Switzerland, and vaguely recollects having breakfast with the orangutans at the Singapore Zoo when she was five. She currently resides in Cincinnati, Ohio, with her husband and two young daughters.
Intisar used to write grants and develop projects to address community health with the Cincinnati Health Department, which was as close as she could get to saving the world. Now she focuses her time on her two passions: raising her family and writing fantasy. She is the author of The Sunbolt Chronicles and Thorn.

“If he could tell us anything helpful, surely we would have heard by now,” I tell Ani, not wanting to give her false hope.
“I can’t give up,” Ani says desperately. “I can’t.” If only there were some lead, some small clue to grasp at, but we’ve turned up nothing: no one remembers anything unusual, every stranger has been accounted for, every wagon searched. There is not a track out of place, nothing. “Baba is riding east with two other men, following the road to Lirelei,” she says. “Everyone’s heard that . . . that the children might be sent on from the eastern ports.” “It’s good that he’s going,” I say. It’s only scraps of rumor and fireside theories that suggest the snatched end up as slaves in other lands. Who sends them, how they are to be discovered—no one knows. But it’s worth the journey if Seri can be found. Ani turns to me, her face tight with fury. “Children disappear every day. Have you thought about that? Perhaps only every few years for us, but in the cities? Across the whole of this kingdom? It must be a few every day. How can it go on? How is it that no one manages to stop it?” I shake my head. It had been easy enough, these past years, to pretend the snatchers were not so constant or near a threat— because they rarely strike here, in so small a town as this. But now little Seri is gone, with her laughing eyes and impish sense of humor. Niya asked if the Circle of Mages really has tried to track the snatched, and I wonder if they have. If they care, or the royal court cares, or if anyone at all knows how the snatchers are able to hide every last trace of our children. Ani takes a deep breath. “What use are the taxes we pay? What use is our king and all his soldiers, if they can’t stop our brothers and sisters from being stolen on the streets?” “Not much,” I admit. It might be treason to say so, but there is no one to hear us on this empty road. I run my hands over my head, tug at my braids, hating this helplessness. “What can we do, though?” “I don’t know,” Ani says, and for the first time since she came to our cart asking after Seri, she begins to cry. I fold her into my arms, holding her tight as she sobs into my shoulder, and promise myself I’ll keep trying. And I won’t give up either. --The Theft of Sunlight, Intisar Khanani

Hi all! Thrilled to be here sharing a quick look at Songs of Thalassa by Dr. Brian N. Tissot, as well as a Q&A! This timely book written by a marine ecologist features pressing environmental concerns and a gripping story. Today is its second day of being out in the world, so congratulations to Dr. Tissot! The Book and its AuthorAfter a surfing accident claims her career and nearly takes her life, surfer Sage Thompson is at a crossroads. Still mourning her astronaut father's death on a mission to ocean planet Thalassa, a tragedy she might be able to put behind her with the help of her fans—if they still believed in her—she's not sure what to do, where to go, or how to move on. But when Milo challenges her to a contest on the ocean planet Thalassa, the asteroid- and tsunami-ravaged world that stole her father, she'll discover that she not only still has what it takes to win, but once she hears the songs of Thalassa, winning might not be the most important thing. Songs of Thalassa will appeal to fans of Island of the Blue Dolphins, The Martian, and Contact, and features a young woman on a journey of self-discovery struggling to develop a sense of place and connections between herself, her culture, and the universe on a virgin ocean planet. DR. BRIAN TISSOT is a marine ecologist and professor living in a small coastal town in far Northern California. He is a third-generation Californian and has surfed for 40 years while living in California, Washington, Oregon, and Hawaii. As a college professor he has taught and mentored thousands of students at the University of Hawaii, Washington State University, and Humboldt State University over the last 30 years. He has taught over a dozen courses in marine biology, ecology, environmental ethics, and environmental policy. As a scientist and explorer, Tissot has completed thousands of SCUBA dives and hundreds of submersible excursions across the coral reefs and deep seas of the Pacific. Through his research he has advocated for the conservation of marine resources through testimony and law creation. He has published 80 scientific papers and his research has been featured in major media including Scientific American, National Geographic, Smithsonian magazine, the Washington Post and several films. In addition to his scientific endeavors, Tissot (aka “Dr. Abalone”) also produces surfing videos on YouTube and blogs about surfing, marine biology, and environmental issues on BrianTissot.com. Songs of Thalassa is his first science fiction book and the first of three books in the Songs of the Universe series. Q & AQuestion: As a career marine biologist focused on the conservation of coral reefs, kelp forests, and the deep-sea, one of the natural themes in Songs of Thalassa is the global warming effects on marine life. Why did you write Songs of Thalassa?
Brian Tissot: Wanting to draw attention to Earth’s plight, I thought the best way was to place someone who didn’t care about the environment on a virgin planet and see what happens. I believe they would see what Earth was like before we began to destroy its ecosystems, connect to its indigenous life and appreciate its beauty, and ultimately want to defend it. This is Sage’s journey on Thalassa. Q: Songs of Thalassa chronicles Sage Thompson – a young Hawaiian surfer. Why is the book dedicated to your daughter and the young women of the world? BT: As a professor I have observed thousands of women in my classes graduate from college and move on with their lives without a mission in life, despite possessing many remarkable gifts. Because we desperately need young women as leaders in today’s society, I created Sage’s journey to inspire those looking for a path to purpose. We know what the world looks like with men as leaders; I believe it is now time for women to lead us, with love, compassion, and aloha. Although Sage’s character is not based on my daughter, as a young marine biologist and surfer with a beautiful aloha spirit, her love for the ocean inspired a lot of my writing about Sage’s early life and her relationship with her father. Q: Why does Songs of Thalassa focus on big wave surfing and Hawaiian culture? BT: Big wave surfing was both a hook to young audiences and a metaphor for Sage’s struggles with reconciling her emotions about her dead father. The setting on Thalassa is what scientists predict on a low-gravity planet, such as Mars on which it is based, and creates some really cool scenarios for surfing. Because surfing and my love for fhe ocean led to my career in marine biology, I also felt it was natural lead-in to what the early explorers of ocean planets would want to do. Hawaiian culture has much to offer to the world, particularly as it relates to love, family, and environmental stewardship, or malama‘āina (nurture the land). Like many indigenous cultures, Hawaiian practices were almost exterminated by western culture. A resurgence of these traditions in the 1970s, and up to today, have been instrumental in reviving many practices, such the Hawaiian language and voyaging traditions, to name a few. I viewed Sage’s journey to Thalassa as an extension of Polynesian’s fantastic voyages and discoveries across the Pacific. Her reengagement with her culture and beliefs in the old ways was symbolic of Hawaiians discovering the power of their own culture and remembering their ancestors. I also hope my book will inspire readers to listen to authentic native Hawaiian voices and seek their wisdom, as I am not Hawaiian. Q: Explain why music plays a big role in the book. BT: Music plays a significant role in the book and as it helped tie the major themes of the book together and is at the cutting edge of scientific research. Whale songs and their sonar abilities are well known, which is why they were included in the book. But sound in nature is not as well known, and we are discovering it is prevalent among a wide variety of organisms and not well understood. As Bernie Krause has written in the Great Animal Orchestra, sounds in nature are as carefully orchestrated as the most beautiful classical score and were the inspiration for human music. Music was the motivation for the title of the book, Songs of Thalassa, and will be explored more deeply in the next two books as part of the Songs of the Universe series. Sadly, with the destruction of our environment, we are silencing these beautiful sounds and communications in nature before we even understand what they mean. It’s a huge loss and one we need to stop. Q: Tell us more about the next book in the series. BT: The next book in series, Songs of Hina, takes place in the future when a team returns to Thalassa to learn more about the inhabitants. Many of the mysteries in SOT will be explored more deeply, including the songs, and Thalassa’s moon, named Hina by Sage, will play a prominent role. Hi all! I recently had the opportunity to speak with Alex Myers, a teacher, writer, and gender inclusivity education consultant, after his talk at my school. Alex was kind enough to answer a few questions for me on his reading and writing, and I hope you'll pick up his books! Alex MyersAlex Myers is a writer, teacher, and speaker. Born and raised in Paris, Maine, Alex was raised as a girl (Alice) and left Maine to attend boarding school at Phillips Exeter Academy. At Exeter, Alex came out as transgender, returning his senior year as a man after attending for three years as a woman, and was the first transgender student in that Academy’s history. After Exeter, Alex earned his bachelor’s at Harvard University, studying Near Eastern Languages and Civilizations. Alex was also the first openly transgender student at Harvard and worked to change the University’s nondiscrimination clause to include gender identity. Subsequent to earning a master’s degree in religion at Brown, Alex has pursued a career in teaching English at secondary schools. He completed his Master’s of Fine Arts in fiction writing at Vermont College of Fine Arts, where he began his work on Revolutionary. He currently lives in New Hampshire with his wife and two cats. (https://alexmyerswriting.com/about/) Continental DivideGo West, Young Man. Isn't that the advice every east coast boy has considered at least once in his life? At nineteen, almost twenty, Ron Bancroft thinks those words sound pretty good. Newly out as transgender, Ron finds himself adrift: kicked out by his family, jilted by his girlfriend, unable to afford to return to college in the fall. So he heads out to Wyoming for a new start, a chance to prove that—even though he was raised as a girl, even though everyone in Boston thinks of him as transgender—he can live as a man. A real man. In Wyoming, he finds what he was looking for: rugged terrain, wranglers, a clean slate. He also stumbles into a world more dangerous than he imagined, one of bigotry and violence. And he falls for an intriguing young woman, who seems as interested in him as he is in her. Thus begins Ron’s true adventure, a search not for the right place in America, but the right place within himself to find truth, happiness, and a sense of belonging. InterviewShreya P: Hi Alex! Thank you so much for joining me! Could you tell us a little about yourself?
Alex Myers: I’m a high school English teacher – something I’ve been doing for the last fifteen years. I was born and raised in rural Maine and consider myself a Northern New Englander at heart, though I’ve lived in Florida, DC, and some other places away from NE. I’m also a transgender person, and I came out 25 years ago; thinking about gender, teaching about gender, and working for civil rights for transgender people has been a big part of my life. SP: ... and how about your books? AM: I write short nonfiction – essays. And I write novels. My first, Revolutionary, came out from Simon & Schuster in 2014. It tells the story of my ancestor, Deborah Sampson, who ran away from home, disguised herself as a man, and fought in the American Revolutionary War. My second, Continental Divide, came out in November 2019 from Univ. of New Orleans Press. It tells the story of a transgender guy who is wondering how to live as a man, so he goes out to Wyoming to explore himself and American Masculinity. My third is The Story of Silence, coming out in July 2020 from HarperCollins. It is a reimagining of a 13th century French poem that tells about a girl whose parents raise her as a boy… and she loves being a boy. He comes a really good knight, is conflicted about his Nature as opposed to his Nurture, and Merlin gets involved. It’s a good time. SP: Thank you! Let’s dig in: Do you have a research process for your books? If so, what does that look like? AM: I usually research the historical information just enough so that I can write – I won’t make any massive errors that will affect character or plot. Then I go… and look things up as a write and revise. If I don’t get started soon, I will spend forever researching and never write! SP: What do you hope readers will take away from your books? AM: Mostly, I hope they enjoy them. I hope they got lost in the story. After that, I hope there’s some moment that makes them reread, reconsider, and think about something that hadn’t occurred to them before… if it’s around gender, that’s even better. SP: How has your journey been influenced by reading and writing? AM: I love reading. I can’t imagine what my life would be like without it. Books provide escape and entertainment and encouragement… a sense of joy and wonder… a chance to expand. I could go on. I like writing, too. It’s allowed me to indulge in imagination as an adult in a way that felt natural as a child but that I lost hold of somewhere in college. SP: What advice do you have for young people trying to become their fullest selves in today’s world? AM: Be around good people. Don’t engage with trolls. Seek out challenges, talk to as many different people as you can. But don’t hang around those who want to harm you – even if they say it’s a joke. It’s important to be kind and to be around those who are kind to you AND it’s important not to be in an echo chamber – to know and respect and like those with whom you really disagree. SP: What have you learned about yourself through writing? AM: That I can be patient. It just takes a lot of effort. SP: In writing Continental Divide, is there an element that changed significantly between your first draft and the published novel? AM: Yes. As usual for me, the beginning – where the novel starts – changed a ton. SP: Lastly, what is your favorite under-read book of all time? AM: Under-read! I love it… The Dyke and the Dybbuk (very under read, but lovely). Thank you to Alex for sharing, and readers, check out the GoodReads links I've added above for more information about his novels! |
