Hi 🙋🏻‍♀️

[Allison | The Book Wheel @thebookwheel]

I need to talk about the ending of The Paper Palace. Who has read it?

[Allison | The Book Wheel @thebookwheel]

😂

[Irishrygirl @irishrygirl]

The fact that head n shoulders doesn’t have a body wash called knees n toes, disappoints me more than I disappoint my parents.

[Allison | The Book Wheel @thebookwheel]

@AskTarget Thanks for the response. I sent it over.

[Allison | The Book Wheel @thebookwheel]

Dear @Target, why do I keep getting opened and lid-less products when I select drive-up? This is the third time (two food products and one shampoo bottle that spilled all over itself before it made its way to me).

I remember what a huge scandal it was when a ⁦@BookExpoAmerica⁩ attendee sold their ARC’s on eBay (this was years ago), but it looks like the practice has only gained in popularity, which is disappointing. https://t.co/6vsRV7Qy2f

[Allison | The Book Wheel @thebookwheel]

It’s Murphy’s Law for readers. 🤦🏻‍♀️

[Allison | The Book Wheel @thebookwheel]

I had so much fun joining in with this one! If you haven’t read The Exiles by @bakerkline, yet, then add it to your list right this very minute. #tbr

[Douglas County Libraries @DCLcolorado]

Have no fear, the Girl Scouts are here.

“A local girl scout troop…. is planning to fill little libraries with some of the recovered books.”

Kelvyn Park High School threw out hundreds of classic books, outraging neighbors.

CPS officials said the school is undergoing renovations, and the books were “weeded” out in the process. https://t.co/jiKwH1Yv14

Wait, what? How did I miss this? I don’t even need to know what it’s about to know I’m going to love it.

Here's the cover of my new novel, THE LINCOLN HIGHWAY, coming to you October 5. It's about four boys on their way from Nebraska to New York City in 1954.
PS: I no longer have a beard.

Bummed bc I enthusiastically recommended @turo to someone & they cancelled the owner’s account, so now she’s out time & an extra $100. I wish there was an incentive to stay with them when that happens- it’s hard to convince her to try again when there’s other similar services. 😔

[Allison | The Book Wheel @thebookwheel]

@LizaKlauss Tigers was my first “best book of the year” way back when, so it holds a special place in my heart. Congrats on the new book!

[Allison | The Book Wheel @thebookwheel]

I’m learning about this book right this very moment. I don’t even know what it’s about, yet, but I’m VERY excited.

[Liza Klaussmann @LizaKlauss]

I’ve worked so long and so hard on this book, so I’m beyond thrilled that it’s come to this. Huzzah!

[Allison | The Book Wheel @thebookwheel]

This means the blog turns 9, as well! Happy Birthday, The Book Wheel!

Ooh, this is a good question.

[Anders Kingsley 📚 @Anders_Kingsley]

To those authors with 3 books or more, what do you think of your debut novel, today?

[Allison | The Book Wheel @thebookwheel]

This one was tough to read but it was so, so worth it. @NancyCNTucker did a great job striking a balance between horror and sympathy for the main character, so check it out:

@ClaireFuller2 It’s okay. I’ll be here :)

[Allison | The Book Wheel @thebookwheel]

Check out that sticker! 😍

[Claire Fuller @ClaireFuller2]

The UK cover for Unsettled Ground has had a refresh! What do you think? I LOVE it. Brighter colours, new quote + @WomensPrize 'sticker'. At the moment this new cover will only appear on the ebook.

[Allison | The Book Wheel @thebookwheel]

@ClaireFuller2 It’s been so fun to follow your success the last 7 years or so. I already can’t wait for your next book.
