I enjoyed the reading at @prairielightsbooks with Iowa Writer's Workshop alumnus @claire_lombardo. I can't wait to read her debut novel #themostfunweeverhad #gohawks #iowawritersworkshop #iowaauthor #leftiesrule #happyreading And then drinks and dinner with a good friend afterwards!
It's been a couple of weeks since I've had a book delivery! Yay for book mail 😁 I'm excited to delve into this book from a local author. She'll be at Prairie Lights in a couple of weeks, I better start reading!! @claire_lombardo #iowawritersworkshop #bookstagram @prairielightsbooks
so-soI love this author for her quirky style and talent for character development. The quirkiness is there and it‘s a creative endeavor. At the same time, the characters stuck around just long enough to get attached to then *poofed* away leaving me disappointed more than once over the course of 369 pages. It was a good read but I think I put a few too many eggs into this McCracken basket this time. #ARC #IowaWritersWorkshop
Eeeeek!!! I can‘t believe I got my hands on this #ARC. It was NOT easy but I love McCracken‘s work and had to have it tout suite. I have a special spot in my heart for this author as she got her MFA then later, taught at the #IowaWritersWorkshop when I was a University of Iowa undergrad. I took classes from others in the program but never got luckier than *probably* being in the same building at the same time as EM. 😜
