It’s infuriating when a woman comes forward about a man raping her in his hotel room after drinking and the response is “Why would she go to his room?” “Why would she drink with him?” This is Mike Pence logic. Women should be allowed to hang out with men without expecting they will be raped.

I absolutely loved everything about THE LADY ON ESPLANADE by Karen White. It's got everything: supernatural, a little horror, mystery, a very slow burn romance, humor and a creepy doll that pops up in unusual spaces. #ewgc
It's in the 60's and the sun is shining here in Michigan.
In COVER GIRL by Amy Rossi, Birdie is a former child model who is looking back over her life in the 70's and 80's fashion world and her relationship with an older rock star in a much different light. This debut will have readers thinking about it for a long time. #ewgc
