When the Book Bloggers' Novel of the Year Award says this about your book, I think it's OK to share the recommendation! 😄

Can’t decide whether these Statue of Liberty rubber chickens that say “squeeze me to hear me scream” are a little too on-the-nose for these times or if they’re perfect
A yellow cardboard carton on a CVS shelf with brightly colored letters that say “squeeze me to hear me scream” and “statue of liberty chicken.” Inside the carton are hot pink, teal, and royal blue rubber chickens with googly eyes rendered like the Statue of Liberty, with their faces distressed and frozen in a shriek.  They have tags around their necks that say “squeeze me to hear me scream”

That would be impressive!! 😱

Just checked my list, and I'm up to 29 books read this year! Given the amount of festival planning and freelancing I've fitted in, I'm frankly surprised – and delighted! Of course I haven't made a dent in the TBR, which keeps growing. 🤷‍♀️

I am a Book Dragon. Don't judge. 😊

I would buy the hell out of that! Alternatively, Loop makes earplugs that block background noise but let you hear conversations. I've heard good reviews. I hate wearing earplugs, but my Loop Silence is are lovely.

My favourite cosplay from #NorCon at the weekend! #Firefly (me) meets #StarTrek and #StarWars in a very confusing combination. This was evil genius cosplay, executed perfectly, and one of the reasons I love going to NorCon every year. So much creativity, imagination, and geeky passion!
