Q: What’s black & white & red all over?

A: This post 😉

Lilith by Eric Rickstad has been in my mountainous tbr ever since I first heard about it. I’m nearing the end of Under the Dome, so when it came ready from the library, I jumped on it.

PS. The strawberries have nothing to do with anything other than they make for a lovely contrast & they are the latest haul from my garden.

Shh…scandalous. Oh, the hypocrisy! Oh wait, we are in 2024, not 1956. Carry on.

I read Peyton Place in 2017 & instantly loved it. I didn’t know there was a sequel until some time after, but it was one of those books I would just never think to put on my search list (maybe b/c there’s 40 million others already on it). I came across this copy of Return to Peyton Place 2 days ago. I was also waiting to find this exact edition, because uh, edition snob. Anyway, I am not a re-reader, but I’m going to make an exception, b/c I can’t wait to dive back in.

Some quick facts: Peyton Place sold 60K copies in 10 days & was on the NYT bestseller list for 59 weeks. The author, Grace Metalious died at 39 from cirrhosis of the liver.

    @bookstodon Blackstone Publishing is really putting out some good work of late. I recently picked up Lilith, by Eric Rickstad, and was pleasantly surprised by the strength of the writing and the fearlessness of the highly topical plot.

    @kimlockhartga @bookstodon Lilith has been on my tbr. I found out about it very close to the publishing date and got a denial from Netgalley. It’s on my hold list. Glad to hear you enjoyed it.

    What is everyone reading? I feel like I haven't picked a book up in ages.

    @CindySue Oh don’t be! Try the first one. I am not a fantasy reader ( nor are series my thing) at all, so this was stepping out of my norm. My SIL told me to give it a hundred pages. I still was thinking, yeah, ok. Well I’m almost done with book 2.
