Hi Mary,
Whilst neither of your new books this week are probably for me, I was oddly intrigued by the premise of ‘Every Anxious Wave’, after first being drawn to check it out, by the unique cover art. I shall be interested to see what you think about the storyline!
Thanks for sharing and enjoy your week 🙂

Oh, your new books both sound good! Eligible seems to have a really fun take on Austen, which I am always up for. And Every Anxious Wave sounds like it could have a really entertaining story with just the right touch of sci-fi. I’ll have to look out for these.
Happy reading!
