When I visited Eloisa James’ Lindow Castle on Facebook the other day (where I had a blast!), I got to see some of the very cool online puzzles that admin Sharlene Martin Moore creates regularly, including (ahem!) one based on my four gorgeous book covers!

If puzzles are your thing, stop by the Castle to take a look . . . and maybe give it a whirl!

“I blame the beginning of the whole thing on Jane Austen.”

The first sentence of Light Changes Everything, a newish novel of historical fiction by Nancy E. Turner, totally hooked me, and the rest of the story reeled me in, all the way to the glorious conclusion. I’d love to share the closing lines, which are beautiful and soul-satisfying and perfect, but I won’t, because I think you should read this marvelous book. :)

I love the cover, too!

ICYMI! Sharing this glorious post from Julia Quinn!

If you’ve been hanging out with me for any length of time, you know that I’m a huge Julia Quinn fan, and that her books have been a major, major inspiration to me. So you can imagine how I felt when she posted this on her Facebook page yesterday:

Yep! Incredibly happy, honored, proud, and grateful. ♥
