Circe
Madeline Miller
@SBKSLibrary Promo describes CLYTEMNESTRA as "Madeline Miller's Circe meets Cersei Lannister" which is a perfect description of Casati's take on this Greek queen & her 'tragic' story. #ewgc

The Golden Enclaves
Naomi Novik
3: THE GOLDEN ENCLAVES by Naomi Novik @DelReyBooks - absolutely l-o-v-e-d the conclusion to "The Scholomance' trilogy as Novik took me by surprise; was hoping El could 'somehow' save her lost love but the reappearance was a shock & a great addition to the story #Libfaves22

Friend of the Devil
Stephen Lloyd
Anyone read FRIEND OF THE DEVIL by Stephen Lloyd? Described as "a lightning-fast horror/noir mash-up for fans of Jim Butcher and Joe Hill" (definitely my kind of read!) Coming May 2022 from @PutnamBooks; listed on Edelweiss but hoping there's an ARC? #ewgc

Bride of the Tornado
James Kennedy
Loved BRIDE OF THE TORNADO by James Kennedy (coming from @quirkbooks in Aug) It's 'Tornado Day' in a town that has always relied on a Tornado Killer to keep them safe. A fascinating horror thriller told by an unnamed high school sophomore. Don't you just LOVE that cover! #ewgc https://t.co/18o94PHQ9Z
