Coming 12/22/09 from Bloomsbury...

Nimira is a music-hall girl used to dancing for pennies. So when wealthy sorcerer Hollin Parry hires her to sing accompaniment to a mysterious piano-playing automaton, Nimira believes it will be the start of a better life. In Parry's world, long-buried secrets are about to stir. Unsettling rumors begin to swirl about ghosts, a madwoman roaming the halls, and Parry’s involvement in a group of corrupt sorcerers for whom the rules of the living and dead are meant to be broken for greater power. When Nimira discovers the spirit of a dashing fairy gentleman is trapped within the automaton, she is determined to break the curse. But even as the two fall into a love that seems hopeless, breaking the curse becomes a perilous race against time. Because it's not just the future of these star-crossed lovers that's at stake, but the fate of the entire magical world.

Okay, Squeaky Books needed a layout change. And I'm talking HARDCORE layout change. I am DETERMINED. I am going to find more time to read. I am going to get up more reviews. I am going to have more contests. I am going to do more interviews. I am going to host another reading challenge. And I'm going to make Squeaky Books look AWESOME, gosh darn it!

*pants with excitement*

Okay. With all that said, what do you think of new layout? A simple vote in the sidebar will do. Yes or no. If you have anything more specific to add, feel free to comment.

Okay. No. I'm not totally blowing off all of you that asked for interviews. The dealio is that I'm moving into a new apartment, and so I've been CRAZY busy with stuff, including packing away all my books:

Isn't that depressing? All those books, locked away in boxes. And that's not even all of them! I have another chest full of books.

*sigh* So, naturally, I have a hard time reading books through a box. I think I've read 20 pages in the last month. It's horribly depressing. But, c'est la vie.

Have you noticed that most of my posts lately are apologies for not posting? That's just sad.

Pathetically yours,
