Review of When the Bough Breaks

When the Bough Breaks

Miss Mae has turned in another sweet romance with mystery intermingled. Once again she shows her knack for vivid descriptions of places, people, emotions, food, environment, etc. Parker and Darlene, the main characters, are likeable as is Uncle Richard and Boone. The cliffhanger incidents are well handled and he reader is kept on the edge of the cliff, quite literally in one incident.
The romance slowly develops and the twists and turns fuel Parker and Darlene’s relationship. The setting is late 1960s, early 1970s and Miss Mae roots using that time period with her meticulous allusions to songs, automobiles, food and political issues. The short chapters provide handy stopping places for those of us who suffer from interruptions during the reading of an excellent book such as this one.

Book Signing? Who? Me?

Miss Mae is gearing up for a book signing!

Well...ahem...let's just say that today I go to talk face-to-face with the manager of a used book store who schedules book signings.

Sounds busy there as she already has November filled. I'll be looking at a December date. I'll make the announcement if she pencils me in, but watch out...Miss Mae may show up at a store near you! :)
