Green Libraries Week and how I made it my own with a memory of my childhood

@jinabacarrauthor

It’s Green Libraries Week and I’ve reposted my fellow Boldwood Books authors out and about in the UK. Makes me ‘green’ with envy since my Boldwood Books aren’t available in US libraries. Alas, I made my own library here at home, including a very old (overdue?) green library book from my childhood and the cutest, porcelain little girl who could be the heroine in my #newrelease Sisters At War when she was little. I couldn’t believe the resemblance between the two.

Why I cried into my cup of java all afternoon… and yes, it has to do with my ‘it pubs in two hours’ new release SISTERS AT WAR

Why I cried into my cup of java all afternoon... and yes, it has to do with my 'it pubs in two hours' new release SISTERS AT WAR

What time is it? Time to begin the countdown!

My new Paris WW2 novel Sisters At War pubs in a few hours.

So what does a writer do while waiting?

Read the early reviews… and pray!

Oh, my…

I cried in my coffee cup all afternoon because they’re so amazing!!

5 & 4 stars reviews

Thank you so much to everyone who came along on my journey to tell a story not often discussed: wartime sexual violence. I’m very grateful to each of you.

My blog tour starts Monday, Sep 25th — link coming up!!

At last: Sisters At War pubs Monday Sept 25th

Out on Monday!

Waiting in the wings for pub day…

Butterflies dancing in my stomach… nerves

Because the subject matter in my story comes from a real place in my life. Sexual assault. What will readers say? Will they come along on the journey?

Should I have kept my secret like I have for such a long time?

I don’t know…

Hence the butterflies.

Come back with me to Paris WW2. Sisters At War is the next book in a series of books I’ve written about that era. I so hope you enjoy it!

#NetGalley reviews:

‘A must read for anyone’

‘Hard hitting and heart breaking’

‘An absolutely gripping, powerful story’
