Top Ten Tuesday is a bookish feature hosted at That Artsy Reader Girl

Yes, I am SO looking forward to this! Especially since it will be the only Julie/Brisbane fix we have for awhile...
ReplyDeleteI know. Ugh. Thank goodness for small mercies in the form of ebook novellas. ;)
DeleteOh oh oh, I have the previous four books and I STILL HAVEN'T READ THEM!! I need to get onto a serious Lady Julia Grey reading marathon me thinks. Everyone I know loves these books.
ReplyDeleteShannon. WOMAN. You can't just hit me with something like that and then click away! You own the first four books?! For the love of all that is holy, pick up SILENT IN THE GRAVE now.
DeleteOh, I'm so disappointed it's an e-book! I miss Nicholas and Julia so much.

Sigh. I know. I really want to hold it in my hands.
DeleteLove, love, love the title and the cover! Thanks for sharing. November 1 is not too far away.
ReplyDeleteIsn't the cover great? So pretty . . .
Deleteohhhh.. happy shivers are happening over here.
ReplyDelete*nods* Shivery happenings indeed.
DeleteCan't wait to read this one! And the next book even though it isn't Brisbane and Deanna Raybourn's shopping list when she publishes it!
ReplyDeleteI know! It sounds really intriguing. I love her settings.
