SPARKY READS

SparkyShockDel3sm
"A gripping tale!" exclaims Sparky Tabasco.


As you can see by the way Sparky is gripping the side of her perch, she is totally engrossed in Jo Beverley's A Shocking Delight, which will be officially released on Tuesday. We'd love to have you join us on Wednesday, April 2, when Wench Susan King interviews Jo on A Shocking Delight. Come and ask Jo questions and visit with each other!

So, Sparky, who are your favorite authors besides Jo Beverley?

My favorite authors? You're kidding, right? The Word Wenches, of course!

 

Inquiry
And in May, I get to read another Wench book! Mary Jo Putney's Not Quite a Wife! I can't wait!

 *CORRECTION: The hardback library edition of Not Quite a Wife comes out in May, and the mass market paperback edition comes out in September (actually, the very end of August).

ByeByeSm
Bye-bye for now. I'm off to do some more reading. See you next week.
