Talk Bookish to Me by Kate Bromley
I’m thrilled to introduce you to Kate Bromley and her first novel, Talk Bookish to Me. It will available on May 25th wherever you buy books. You can even catch her launch with, The Book Revue virtual launch event at May 25th @ 7 pm ET. She will be in conversation with Brenda Janowitz.
A brief description of the book provided by the publisher:
Talk Bookish to Me is a laugh-out-loud stunner of a story, perfect for fans of Beach Read and The Bookish Life of Nina Hill, that will delight book nerds everywhere!
Kara Sullivan is definitely not avoiding her deadline. After all, it's the week of her best friend's wedding and she's the maid of honor, so she's got lots of responsibilities. As a bestselling romance novelist with seven novels under her belt, she’s a pro and looming deadlines and writer’s block (which she definitely doesn’t have) don't scare her. She's just eager to support Cristina as she ties the knot with Jason.
But who should show up at Cristina and Jason's rehearsal dinner but Kara's college ex-boyfriend, (the gorgeous and infuriating) Ryan? Apparently, he’s one of Jason's childhood friends, and he's in the wedding party, too. Considering neither Kara nor Ryan were prepared to see each other again, it's decidedly a meet-NOT-cute. There is nothing cute about this situation, and a bit of notice to mentally prepare would’ve been nice, Cristina! However, when Kara sits down to write again the next day, her writers' block is suddenly gone. She has to wonder what’s changed. Are muses real…? And is Kara's muse...Ryan?
Before the book is available I
wanted to share a little background into the author and the book.
Q: Please give the
elevator pitch for Talk Bookish to Me.
A: Talk Bookish to Me is a
contemporary romantic comedy that follows a bestselling romance novelist with
writer’s block who suddenly finds herself inspired when she’s thrown together
with her infuriating first love during the week of her best friend’s
wedding.
Q: Which came first: the
characters or plot line?
A: The characters! I had
no idea what I was writing when I first started my manuscript, but I did know
that the story was going to be about a quirky romance novelist in NYC who has
an unexpected reunion with her college ex-boyfriend that she never
forgot.
Q: Why do you love Kara
and Ryan and why should readers root for them?
A: I love Kara and Ryan
and readers should root for them because they refuse to give up on each other.
It would be way easier for both of them to go their separate ways and move on
with their lives, but there’s so much chemistry and history and genuine
connection between them that no matter what, they just can’t get past it and,
deep down, they don’t want to get past it. They also make each other laugh and
absolutely light up when they’re together. They challenge each other to grow as
people and to become the best versions of themselves, and I think that’s always
something worth rooting for.
