#FictionFriday #11 – deals, new releases, and freebies

Note: Every Friday I’m going to (attempt to) list any great looking books or deals I’ve come across earlier in the week. Often, I won’t have read these books myself yet – seeing as I’m supposed to be writing one (!!) – but these are deals or books I thought looked good enough to share. All links – for ease of linking – are to Amazon.com but most, if not all, of these books are available on all platforms including paperback. Hint, if you are in Canada or the UK (etc) and want to buy just change the .com in your browser to .ca (etc).

Made by Jeanette Raleigh

This particular recipe reminds me of my high school English teacher. Even though he was known for being a tough grader, I loved his class.  I sat at the front and paid very close attention. Even back then I wanted to be a writer. Every month or so our class would all decide to bring goodies on the same day for an impromptu party (without telling the teacher). He would go along with it, letting us have our treats before getting down to business.  He LOVED my mom’s brownies.  Thanks Mr. Miller – Jeanette
