Olson (@jessicaolson123) is a gothic fantasy murder mystery perfect for fans of Erin A. Craig and Kerri Maniscalco! Big thanks to @InkyardPress for sending this promotional box my way! The soap smells so fresh! This book releases on March 29th, 2022! — synopsis — Myra Whitlock has a gift. One many would kill for. She’s an artist whose portraits alter people’s real-life bodies, a talent she must hide from those who would kidnap, blackmail, and worse in order to control it. Guarding that secret is the only way to keep her younger sister safe now that their parents are gone. But one frigid night, the governor’s wife discovers the truth and threatens to expose Myra if she does not complete a special portrait that would resurrect the governor's dead son. Desperate, Myra ventures to his legendary stone mansion. Once she arrives, however, it becomes clear the boy’s death was no accident. Someone dangerous lurks within these glittering halls. Someone harboring a disturbing obsession with portrait magic. Myra cannot do the painting until she knows what really happened, so she turns to the governor’s older son, a captivating redheaded poet. Together, they delve into the family’s most shadowed affairs, racing to uncover the truth before the secret Myra spent her life concealing makes her the killer’s next victim. •••••••••••••••••••••••• #Bookstagram #Bookish #BookNerd #BookReviewer #PTMBook #IDGAFBookstagram #JessicaOlson #AForgeryOfRoses #InkyardPress #PromotionalBox #PRBox #Unboxing #BookNerd #BookLover #MurderMystery #MysteryBooks #GothicFantasy (at Saint Joseph, Missouri) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ca2nbqIr6bv/?utm_medium=tumblr

✨Happy Book Birthday to The Legend of Brightblade by Ethan M. Aldridge (@ethanmaldridge)! Big thanks to @harperkids for sending this graphic novel our way! Chase cracked it open right when he got home from school yesterday and made it halfway through before putting it down for the first time! I consider that a huge success! Chase may or may not have gotten his lack of ✨book organization✨skills from me 😵‍💫 — synopsis — Young Prince Alto dreams of being a hero like his mother, the Lady Brightblade. Her well-known legend was woven into stories by the magical bard who fought by her side. The kingdom may be at peace now, but Alto believes that the world still needs heroes. He has been learning the bard's magic, and has grown restless with royal life. Determined to have an adventure of his own, Alto runs away from the palace. On his journey, he finds himself making new friends and encountering new and exciting magic. But when he discovers that there are dangers threatening the kingdom, Alto realizes that he might not be able to handle them alone—and making his mark as a hero is harder than the stories made it seem. The Legend of Brightblade is available now! •••••••••••••••••••••••• #Bookstagram #Bookish #BookNerd #BookReviewer #PTMBook #IDGAFBookstagram #EthanMAldridge #HarperKids #HarperCollins #KidsLit #GraphicNovels #JuvenileFiction #KidsGraphicNovels #PictureBooks (at Saint Joseph, Missouri) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cak91ftrIun/?utm_medium=tumblr

This is only a fraction of the plants I have in my bathroom 🤣 — SYNOPSIS — Merit Cravan refused to fulfill her obligation to marry a prince, leading to a fairy godling's curse. She will be forced to live as a beast forever, unless she agrees to marry a man of her mother's choosing before her eighteenth birthday. Tevin Dumont has always been a pawn in his family's cons. The prettiest boy in a big family, his job is to tempt naïve rich girls to abandon their engagements, unless their parents agree to pay him off. But after his mother runs afoul of the beast, she decides to trade Tevin for her own freedom. Now, Tevin and Merit have agreed that he can pay off his mother's debt by using his con-artist skills to help Merit find the best match . . . but what if the best match is Tevin himself? :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: #Pride #YoungAdultBooks #PTMBook #Bookstagram #Bookish #Booknerd #BookLover #Retelling #BookCommunity #Reading #ReadersOfInstagram #BeautyAndTheBeast #LishMcBride #BookRecommendation #PenguinTeen #YAFantasy #BookSeries #Books #BooksOfIG #Reader #LGBT #BooksAndPlants #PlantsAndBooks #PlantsOfIG (at Saint Joseph, Missouri) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRl1RFPL5Hf/?utm_medium=tumblr
