Forth Week Friend: Mary Feliz!

July 11, 2019 /

But, first, a word from Laurie: I’ve earned a few nicknames over the years. Some of them cannot be shared in mixed company, but the following two will make sense here: Last Minute Laurie and Laurie the Late! Here’s the blog post that I planned to have up the last week of June. I’m sending out a huge THANK YOU to the Marvelous Mary Feliz for being my first guest blogger! I’m also looking forward to her 5th Maggie McDonald book, Cliff Hanger, which releases July 16th (next week!!). Congratulations, Mary!

And, now, without further ado, I give you Mary Feliz:

We can’t guarantee your dog will approve, but BookBub is a bibliophile’s dream.

Do you BookBub?

If you love books (and who doesn’t) you’re engaged in an endless battle to budget your finances and storage space, feed your passions, keep up with your favorite authors, and discover new ones. 

We could argue for ages over whether that’s a problem or a lifestyle, but either way, BookBub can help.

BookBub is the king of bargain book services.

  • Free. It’s a free service for avid readers who love a bargain.
  • Discover new authors. You decide what books you most like to read, and BookBub sends a daily curated list of sale books in the genres you’ve selected.
  • Keep tabs on your favs. Follow your favorite authors and you’ll receive alerts when they release new titles or their novels are on sale.

BookBub focuses exclusively on ebooks, but that doesn’t mean you need to buy them in that format.  Use their service as a guide to request books from your local library or bookstore.

But what if your taste in books is highly selective—more finely tuned than BookBub’s selection criteria allows?  Search the internet for another bargain book service. There are many specialized ones that focus on mystery, horror, romance, young adult, Christian novels, or other distinct swaths of publishing. If you know just where to look on a library shelf or bookstore for your favorites, there is certain to be a book service designed to bring you selections of books on sale that you’ll love.

When you’ve got a reading problem BookBub might be the solution to managing it, or it might fuel your addiction. Either way, you’ve been warned.

Literature addict Mary Feliz writes the Maggie McDonald Mystery series featuring a California professional organizer and her sidekick golden retriever. Address to Die For, the first book in the series, was named a Best Book of 2017 by Kirkus Reviews. All of her books have spent time on the Amazon best seller list. Cliff Hanger, the fifth book in the series, releases July 16, 2020. Mary shares her writing time with the distractions of living on the shores of the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary. She is a certified California Naturalist. Visit her website at http://www.maryfeliz.com/. Follow her on BookBub at: https://www.bookbub.com/profile/mary-feliz
When a hang-gliding stranger is found fatally injured in the cliffs above Monterey Bay, the investigation into his death becomes a cluttered mess. Professional organizer Maggie McDonald must sort the clues to catch a coastal killer before her family becomes a target . . .
Maggie has her work cut out for her helping Renée Alvarez organize her property management office. Though the condominium complex boasts a prime location on the shores of the Monterey Bay Marine Sanctuary, aging buildings and the high-maintenance tenants have Renée run ragged. But Maggie’s efforts are complicated when her sons attempt to rescue a badly injured man who crashed his ultra-light on the coastal cliffs.
Despite their efforts to save him, the man dies. Maggie’s family members become the prime suspects in a murder investigation and the target of a lawsuit. Her instincts say something’s out of place, but solving a murder won’t be easy. Maggie still needs to manage her business, the pushy press, and unwanted interest from criminal elements. Controlling chaos is her specialty, but with this killer’s crime wave, Maggie may be left hanging . . .
E-BOOKS and Paperbacks now Available for pre-order from all major online booksellers and your local bookstore. Releases July 16, 2019.
