Talk Bookish To Me
Book Feature - Talk Bookish To Me by Kate Bromley
HBL Note: I’m finding myself drawn to uplifting, feel-good stories lately. I want novels that will get me laughing and enjoying life. I don’t know if that desire stems from the fire, the pandemic, or both. But lucky for me, there are several authors providing just what I’m looking for. TALK BOOKISH TO ME by Kate Bromley is a laugh-out-loud novel perfect for book nerds like me (us?) And the cherry on top: this is her debut novel! I LOVE featuring debut authors - supporting them from the very beginning of their book publishing career. Helping them find the readers who will adore them. If you loved Beach Read and The Bookish Life of Nina Hill, then I think you’ll also adore TALK BOOKISH TO ME. Scroll down to read more.
From the publisher:
Kara Sullivan is definitely not avoiding her deadline. After all, it's the week of her best friend's wedding and she's the maid of honor, so she's got lots of responsibilities. As a bestselling romance novelist with seven novels under her belt, she’s a pro and looming deadlines and writer’s block (which she definitely doesn’t have) don't scare her. She's just eager to support Cristina as she ties the knot with Jason.
But who should show up at Cristina and Jason's rehearsal dinner but Kara's college ex-boyfriend, (the gorgeous and infuriating) Ryan? Apparently, he’s one of Jason's childhood friends, and he's in the wedding party, too. Considering neither Kara nor Ryan were prepared to see each other again, it's decidedly a meet-NOT-cute. There is nothing cute about this situation, and a bit of notice to mentally prepare would’ve been nice, Cristina! However, when Kara sits down to write again the next day, her writers' block is suddenly gone. She has to wonder what’s changed. Are muses real…? And is Kara's muse...Ryan?
