Delicious description of growing up in the 1950's. For example, "I was petrified to even touch it, sure that my sweaty fingerprints would be pressed into the shiny brown wood the way a comic book came off on my Silly Putty."
Gave this book 5 stars.

The Look-Alike by Erica Spindler is to be released in January 2020. I read an uncorrected digital copy through NetGalley and gave it four stars and a short review:
A well-crafted mystery with romantic threads that furthered the tension - as it was unclear who was the murderer.
There were some technical issues and some editing items that got in the way of my enjoyment of the book. I passed the specifics back to the publisher, so hopefully it'll be even better when it is released in January.

Okay.
I write fiction (see the three books featured in this post's image). Those books have sold remarkably well, considering I have done virtually no marketing. The readers of Running Away asked for the mom's story and it's finally ready. Peg's Story: Detours will be released in 2020. I'm still planning to self-publish, but I'm trying to do this marketing thing better.
Today, I signed up with NetGalley as a reviewer (that's free). They actually have a Women's Fiction category! In Women's Fiction, it's about the woman. There might be a romantic thread, but it's not the main point of the story. Whatever else the woman's going through, whatever transformations take place, are NOT dependent on the romance.
I will be SO happy when awards, sales sites, etc. catch up and add Women's Fiction as a category.
Anyway, I plan on reading as many of the NetGalley books in the Women's category as I can, and will post reviews of any that I like here, and once they're available for sale, at Amazon. (If I don't like a book, odds are I won't finish it and I won't review based on a partial reading.)
Oh, by the way. If you have read any of my books (see the image), please check and, if you never posted a review at Amazon, do it - to help other people find my books. You can follow the links from my Amazon Author page. Thanks.
