Yesterday, a lovely review was posted in the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ratcreek.org\/uploads\/3\/0\/5\/2\/3052544\/rcp_vol17_iss8_august_2015.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"  rel=\"nofollow\" >Rat Creek Press<\/a>, a great little neighborhood paper here in Edmonton (see page 10).<\/p>\n<p>Last night, I was able to take multiple copies to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.audreys.ca\/\" target=\"_blank\"  rel=\"nofollow\" >Audrey&#8217;s<\/a>, our wonderful local bookshop, so my husband took me out for celebratory drinks on a nearby restaurant patio (a G &amp; T on a warm day is a lovely reward. Trust me on this).<\/p>\n<p>Until I can get it into the bookstore near you, please visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Forgotten-Flapper-Novel-Thomas-Actress\/dp\/0994734905\/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1438437629&amp;sr=8-1&amp;keywords=The+Forgotten+Flapper\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" >Amazon<\/a> and check it out. If you like classic films (especially silent ones), and\/or you like the recent spate of biographical fiction of famous women (Zelda Fitzgerald, Beryl Markham, Coco Chanel, and the like), I think you&#8217;ll enjoy it. And Olive, being the feisty, fun-loving girl she is, will love your support.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve also discounted the e-book of my first novel, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Love-Lies-Bleeding-Laini-Giles-ebook\/dp\/B00VY7F6IE\/ref=asap_bc?ie=UTF8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" >Love Lies Bleeding<\/a>, to celebrate the release. So if you haven&#8217;t read it yet, this is a good time to!<\/p>\n<p>For those of us in Alberta, this is a long weekend.
