There are several blogs participating in the cover reveal (thanks to all of them, and especially Giselle from XPresso Book Tours for setting the whole thing in motion!) Without further ado … WHISKEY…

Karen Lord || The Blue, Beautiful World

Longlist 2024 Spoiler Alert Did I ever mention in a previous blog I am not into SciFi? I think I might have. Unfortunately The Blue, Beautiful World once more proved I am definitely not into SciFi. The further the novel progressed, the more I suffered. I must admit I might have liked The Blue, Beautiful World better if it had been made into a series or a movie. I always enjoyed Star Trek and…

Feminine Suffering Is Not Shocking

A highly specific bone I have with historical and high fantasy shows is the punishment inherent to being feminine or simply being a woman. I am tired, exhausted, sick to death of women who value beauty or mercy or who just want to survive being punished.

Another week, another drawn out scene of women being subjugated in an intensely gender-specific way for the gratification and convenience of men in Westeros.

The world of Westeros has always fetishized suffering in all forms, but…

Oh the irony of starting a company called JustRead – to promote books – and no longer having…
