Re: Thanks and Stay Tuned for the Next First Look Book!

Thanks to Barnes and Noble and Katherine Howe for such a great First Look pick.  The discussion has been interesting, and the book was different from most of the books that I tend to read.  It has opened up a whole new genre of books for me to pursue.  I look forward to the next one.

Re: Thanks and Stay Tuned for the Next First Look Book!

Paul,

 

Any hint as to when the next first look will be announced? I greatly enjoy this club, and am anxiously awaiting the next book.

 

Physick Book will  be a tough act to follow and Katherine Howe was so interactive, she leaves really big shoes to fill. The next author has his/her work cut out for him/her.  :smileyvery-happy:

Re: Thanks and Stay Tuned for the Next First Look Book!

The next First Look Selection will be announced within the next couple of days. I promise!

 

You're absolutely right that Deliverance Dane and Katherine will be a "tough act to follow", but have faith!

 

The upcoming Selection is an amazing read, and just between you and me, it's magical in every way!

If this was intended to appease and placate, you failed miserably! :smileywink:  This only makes me more impatient.  

 

The anticipation only heightens the excitement!

Re: Thanks and Stay Tuned for the Next First Look Book!

Many thanks to Barnes and Noble for the First Look Book Club. I have been in on all the First Look books and have found that there were books that I might not have read if not for your generous ARC books. It's good to go outside the box, so to speak, and read new areas of writing. I can't to see what you have in store for us next time. It will be hard to match Katherine Howe's book. Yvonne

Re: The Next First Look Book!

Cue the music! 

 

Tomorrow, April 30th, at 12:00 p.m. EST, we'll be announcing the next First Look Book and taking registrations at that time!

 

Be on the look out for the new board. It'll be posted on the announcements board and I'll drop a note here as well.

Re: The Next First Look Book!

Thank you so much Paul, for the heads up.  The band has been warming up since we finished Katherine's novel.  The music has now been cued !!! 

 

  If the next book is half as Great as the last, it will be another great read.  By the way, the magical clue is very intriguing.  I will certainly be looking for the announcement tomorrow.
