A book review graphic for "The Malign Ghosts of Summer" by Ann McMan, published by Bywater Books. The left side features the book cover, which shows a woman’s face superimposed over a lakeside sunset. The right side features a stamp-style background with a 5-star rating and a review quote from Tempe Luvs Books that reads: “I enjoyed this book so much that I had to stop sometimes to contemplate and absorb the many emotions it stirred in me. I cried some tears of sadness and some tears of happiness, and loved every moment of the joy I received from reading it.”

This is a great anthology—I have a short story honoring Dolly Parton in it. Seriously, who doesn’t love “Jolene”?

It's EASY for you to say. You have no idea how difficult it is to accessorize with the right shoes and millinery. You don't live with my mother's VOICE screaming in your head! She made Miranda Preistly look like a Teamster.

You call COERCION “challenging”? You and @salemwest.bsky.social made me write this wearing a blazer with wraparound arms! And lemme just say it’s hard as hell to reach the semicolon key in one of those . . .
