Subject: Every Morning…
I receive an email from “Book Bub”- that includes a list and thumbnail sketch of 8-10 ebooks that I can purchase for my e-reader, usually for vey low prices.

Each day’s email usually includes at least one critically acclaimed book, as well as a few that climbed the charts of the mass market.

The rest, most often, are books I’ve never heard of, by authors who share that same distinction.

Some are free- and some of those free books, if I take a chance on them, can prove to be delightful reading. It’s all in the summary/introductory paragraph included with each book. Like the following that appeared today:

On a picturesque small-town ranch, a gender reveal party goes fatally wrong — leaving outside investigator Jamie to unravel the truth.

Nope- not going to download that book, but its subject matter is ripped from the latest human interest headlines, no?

Who knew we’d have a book of fiction about a gender reveal party that went fatally wrong?

We have a world of authors who moan about not having anything to inspire their writing.

Obviously, that doesn't include this author, who obviously found her muse in the pages of People magazine.
