I’m thrilled to announce the re-release of my new first novel, The Beekeeper and the Bomb!

This project has been a labor of love, weaving together themes of family secrets, LGBTQ+ romance, and historical mystery.

When Alex Bramble discovers a WWII-era bomb in her grandfather's meadow, she realizes the quiet beekeeper she knew was hiding a dangerous past.

YAY 🎉 I finished the library challenge with a non-fiction book:
"Ten steps to Nanette" by Hannah Gadsby (read by the author).

I liked it. I had never read an Australian author. The fact that they are #AuDHD was so relatable. They have also gone through quite a lot of heavy trauma, in part due to been queer. They also make quite a critique of many current systems. Plus being funny. It was quite a thing.

Edit: correct pronouns!

Pretty stoked the pre-orders for 'Invasive Species' are really rolling in.

Best part of Pre-ordering... It's like Christmas in August. You wake and BOOM. There’s a new book for you to read on your ereader.

Or if you're impatient, you can buy direct and read it now, everyone else.

Summer's not over! Plenty of time for more reading!

Completed another book in the challenge, also in French!

A fiction book: "L'Épave du Cynthia" (The Waif of the Cynthia) by A. Laurie and J. Verne (the name of the latter only added to sell more copies).

This book was a childhood favorite. The plot is... predictable? almost an excuse to list or describe geographical locations. But I think this was the book that made me want to go to the Arctic.
I had forgotten how much I enjoyed reading sea adventures when I was young.

Continuing the reading challenge: "read a classic", I listened to Le Petit Prince (by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry). Given how much I enjoyed branching out to other languages, I listened to it in French. The reading, by Bernard Giraudeau (a French actor), was excellent.

I used to have a level C in French, but without practice, I thought I'd lost most of it. I was so full of joy when I realized I could still understand it, that I had to stop the reading for a moment. #SummerReading

I eventually found, and listened to, a Spanish translation of Pride and Prejudice. I found it on YouTube, and the reader was very engaging. I had missed some of the details the couple of times I listened to it in English, so there was some advantage to listening to it in my first language. Book 2 out of 5!

I never know if audiobooks count as reading, but given ... life... it's all I got right now.
