Here are the latest: Divergent by Veronica Roth: https://aliendjinnromances.blogspot.com/2024/02/karen-s-wiesner-hit-list-young-adult_0507524339.html The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins, including the prequel The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes: https://aliendjinnromances.blogspot.com/2024/02/karen-s-wiesner-hit-list-young-adult.html Fractal Noise, A Fractalverse Novel by Christopher Paolini https://aliendjinnromances.blogspot.com/2024/02/karen-s-wiesner-put-this-one-on-your_01564633126.html "Unity", An Interactive Fractalverse Story by Christopher Paolini https://aliendjinnromances.blogspot.com/2024/02/karen-s-wiesner-put-this-one-on-your.html Heart’s Blood by Juliet Marillier: https://aliendjinnromances.blogspot.com/2024/01/karen-s-wiesner-put-this-one-on-your_0103362056.html The Historian by Elizabeth Kostova: https://aliendjinnromances.blogspot.com/2024/01/karen-s-wiesner-put-this-one-on-your.html The Travelling Bag and Other Ghostly Stories and Farthing House and Other Stories by Susan Hill: https://aliendjinnromances.blogspot.com/2023/12/karen-s-wiesner-put-this-one-on-your_0477925404.html NEWEST & UPCOMING RELEASES BONE OF MY BONE, Book 7: Bloodmoon Cove Spirits Series Romantic Paranormal Horror Available now in paperback and electronic formats https://karenwiesner.weebly.com/bloodmoon-cove-spirits-series.html HEARTS ABLAZE, Book 4: Peaceful Pilgrim Series Women's Fiction Available now in paperback and electronic formats https://karenwiesner.weebly.com/peaceful-pilgrims-series.html LOST AND FOUND, A Bloodmoon Cove Spirits Series 2-in-1 including LOST, Book 8 and FOUND, Book 9 Romantic Paranormal Horror Coming soon in paperback and electronic formats https://karenwiesner.weebly.com/bloodmoon-cove-spirits-series.html NEW REVIEWS I received a new review for HEARTS ABLAZE, Book 4: Peaceful Pilgrims Series: 4 Stars! “Come to the small town of Peaceful, Wisconsin. This is where some of the most big-hearted people live, love, and help each other out. I have no doubt that many ladies in the real world have had their own version of an "Alexander" in their lives. However, I do not believe most of them were as mean as Riley's Alexander--assistant to the Chief Human Resources Officer at Trouvaille Commercial Airlines, [who] never believed Riley was not interested in having a romantic relationship with him, even though Riley told him every time they met for coffee or meetings that she was not interested in him that way. But now Alexander is a believer, and he has informed Riley that he has done some shady things to help her advance in her career. Alexander goes on to explain that he was going to pin all of it on Riley, making himself seem the victim, and ruin her career forever. Watching Riley, Blaze, and their kin as they deal with all the problems that come their way kept my attention throughout the story, just as watching Riley and Blaze spend some wonderful time together did. If you have not read any of the previous titles, I assure you that each story stands alone. However, it is nice to see the previous main characters of stories have parts as secondary characters in others. It makes me feel as though I actually know these people. Karen Wiesner weaves all their lives together to create a warm and friendly town with some amazing locals in it. I can hardly wait to read more about Peaceful, Wisconsin.” ~Huntress Reviews Find out more: https://karenwiesner.weebly.com/peaceful-pilgrims-series.html https://www.writers-exchange.com/a-peaceful-pilgrim-novel-series/ AUTHOR PAGES Writers Exchange: http://www.writers-exchange.com/Karen-Wiesner/ and http://www.writers-exchange.com/blog/ Barnes and Noble: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/s/Karen%20Wiesner Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/author/karenwiesner Goodreads: https://www.goodreads.com/karenwiesner Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/KarenWiesnerAuthor BookBub: https://www.bookbub.com/authors/karen-wiesner WORKS IN PROGRESS MOMENTS http://www.facebook.com/KarenWiesnerAuthor https://karenwiesner.weebly.com/works-in-progress.html In February, I: -Completed a final read-through of EXILED HEARTS, Book 7: Peaceful Pilgrims Series; corrections; submitted for editor revisions https://karenwiesner.weebly.com/peaceful-pilgrims-series.html -Practiced art -Wrote articles/reviews for Alien Romances Blog -Incorporated critiques into HELL HATH NO FURY, Book 10: Bloodmoon Cove Spirits Series https://karenwiesner.weebly.com/bloodmoon-cove-spirits-series.html In March-May, I'll be: -Working on research, background and timeline for BAD BLOOD, Book 11: Bloodmoon Cove Spirits Series including: Part 1: THE ANCIENT ONE Part 2: ELDRITCH JUSTICE -Outlining Parts 1 and 2 of BAD BLOOD https://karenwiesner.weebly.com/bloodmoon-cove-spirits-series.html 2024 WIP Goals: https://karenwiesner.weebly.com/works-in-progress.html
