I just finished Some Desperate Glory by Emily Tesh for my book club. It won the Hugo and I now know why. Just when you thought you figured the story out it went in a completely different direction. Very diverse cast and very well written.
Hi Lili! So excited to read your new novels - especially Unhallowed Halls. I just read Judith Rossell's new novel 'The Midwatch' and it knocked my socks off. Loved the beautiful illustrations, the ballsy, crime-fighting orphan girls and the secret tunnels worming around the sprawling city.
I've had a good run this year but when I think of the most standout novel I've read, Luster by Raven Leilani comes to mind. Bit surprising as I primarily read speculative fiction but her sentences were incredible.
Hi Marg - I didn't do much myself, other than talking about it on TikTok and Instagram. Oh, and I got a bunch of stickers printed to give away with the book. But my publisher did heaps - they made standees and bookmarks for bookshops, did an exclusive iron on patch through QBD, and lots of other great things.
Omg Lili I have been so excited for your release!!! How amazing of you to offer a giveaway! My most recent five star was A Deadly Education... it was so good!!!!!

Love your newsletter Lili! Can you tell me what marketing you did for Bravepaw? Best wishes for all your writing projects! Marg

Oh, and I also talk about it at primary schools, libraries and festivals!
