To celebrate the release of my third Rae Riley cozy mystery novel, I’m inviting you to join the blog tour and book club for A Riddle in the Lonesome October.
Join My Online Real Time Book Club on Facebook and Instagram
So what does a a real time book club mean? So glad you asked! I use a calendar to plot my novels so I can keep track of the action. I thought it would be fun for readers to read my novel in real time, in the same amount of time it unfolds for Rae. For example, chapters 1-8 take place on October 5. So I’ll post on that day and list the chapters. On the next day, I provide an insight or inspiration or background for those chapters and then announce that on October 6, you should read chapter 9-13. This all leads up to reading the chapter set on Halloween on that date.
There are a few rules for the book club.
- NO SPOILERS!!!
- Each time you comment on a book club post, you are entered into a drawing for previous books in my Rae Riley Mysteries series. I’ll announce the winners after Nov. 1
- NO SPOILERS!!!
I always enjoy reading stories that have a strong sense of time in that particular time. So I read Christmas mysteries in December. A few of my favorite short stories are set in August, so I reread them then. I hope that the real time book club will make Riddle even more enjoyable, allowing readers to live the story with Rae. The schedule is below. Join me on Facebook and Instagram.
Blog Tour and Giveaway with Celebrate Lit
I’m also participating in a tour and giveaway for A Riddle in the Lonesome October with Celebrate Lit. Some of the sites have interviews with me, so you get some background into my life and my writing.
Interesting concept. I don’t spend much time online, so I may have to catch up during your break.
I’d be happy to have join in when you can!
