YAY! Praise for Pass the Salt is rolling in! I received a few questions about the audiobook. I wasn't able to find an audiobook publisher that wanted to produce this so if you want an audiobook, buy the eBook or give me money to make the audiobook happen. The eBook is DRM free! https://compassivistepublishing.com/product/pass-the-salt/ @bookstodon

4/5
@thestorygraph for "Steeltown Magnolia" by Melissa F. Miller, a tense and gripping series debut that I enjoyed, even while being put off by what felt like overt product placement for Apple being made integral to the story.

TFW you're really enjoying a mystery/thriller but end up having to dock points from your review for its insistent aPPLe promos. On the + side, it did give me an opportunity to confirm my guess that "malophobe" is the word to describe how I feel about that company😡

Nostalgia: A History of a Dangerous Emotion by Agnes Arnold-Forster review – no place like home

"Quoting Michel Barnier, the EU chief negotiator, she sees the vote to leave Europe as a direct expression of Britain’s “nostalgia for the past”, alerting us to the way that Barnier’s tautologous phrasing suggests a doubling down – Britons really, really want to live in a once-upon-a-time land when foreigners knew their place."
