You have not heard much from me lately, but please brace yourself, because the posts will be coming somewhat thicker and faster than usual as we count down to the 1 December release of Ten Things I Hate About the Duke.
Some months ago, Advance Reading Copies (mistakes and all) went out to reviewers, bloggers, and others. Today I received notice of a special honor, from librarians.
Ten Things I Hate About The Duke has been voted a LibraryReads pick for December 2020! Out of all the books coming out in December, it made the top ten. This is quite an honor, from the people who have done so much for me, my whole life.
You can look over the complete list here at Library Reads.
And on this Library Love Fest Podcast, I and other HarperCollins authors who made the shortlist offer our thanks.
This was an unexpected honor, and very happy news, as Ashmont and Cassandra’s story prepares to meet the public. May I just say how much I love librarians? In case that didn’t quite come across in the podcast.
Four authors and an editor + our Super Librarian Meena Jain of the Cary Memorial Library (this was her great idea) had a lively discussion about historical romance and the ways it’s evolved. We got serious. We got nostalgic. We got to laughing quite a bit. And we produced various perspectives on the books that started it all, back in the early 70s—and how they’ve influenced us (or not) today.
In case you missed it—or would like to see it again, the discussion is now available for your viewing pleasure on YouTube.
