Literary Friday…. I’m in a BEA packing frenzy!
1. Deep South Magazine and their #literaryfriday: Karen White, Emily Giffin and Mary Kay Andrews news, some Pat Conroy news and the Summer Reading List Twitter Chat Schedule (psst- you might see a familiar co-host for the Erika Marks chat πΒ Plus so much more!
2. Like to read non-fiction? Doing Dewey has her Non-Fiction Friday link up, so go check it out!
3. The #ReadHachette hashtag is growing! Listen, I’m not going to bash Amazon and I’m not going to suggest you boycott. But this #ReadHachette debacle is disturbing on behalf of authors everywhere. This isn’t the first time it’s happened (and it’s happened at places other than Amazon before)- but it’s always hurtful to see authors lose out. The Book Wheel has more info on the subject of #ReadHachette- and if you want to show support to the Hachette authors ( Little Brown and Grand Central Publishing are 2 of the big publishers under the Hachette umbrella- which means that you can’t get The Matchmaker by Elin Hildrebrand- which is one of the Traveling With T’s 2014 Beach Reads OR The Fever by Megan Abbot- which is a Traveling With T Futuristic Friday Selection from Amazon until this whole mess is resolved!) then tweet #ReadHachette!!!!!!!
4. Always With A Book is giving away A SWEET LIFE Boxed Set (It’s an International Giveaway!)
5. What are your #fridayreads? I’m reading THE VACATIONERS by Emma Straub!
Happy Reading and Bookishly Yours,
T @ Traveling With T



Thanks for sharing my Nonfiction link-up! I’m also disappointed to see author’s being negatively impacted by the Amazon/Hachette thing and hope it won’t stop people from picking up Hachette books.
You are welcome! I’m hating the Amazon/Hachette issue- living in the sticks like I do- well Amazon has been a great place for many things. And Amazon sells cozy mystery books! But, I’m displeased- and I hope that this issue is quickly resolved!
