Hello, there!
Hard to believe we’re only seven weeks out from release! And also wild that it’s already been a month since my last newsletter when I revealed the cover for the UK edition (Click the Instagram reveal below if you missed it!)
Since then, I’ve been hard at work on my first major developmental round of edits on the sequel to Den, and I’m really excited with how it is shaping up. Though I will say that juggling being on deadline at the same time as the buildup to a book’s pub day definitely is keeping me on my toes.
Speaking of which, who is ready for all the juicy details about how to get art, a bookmark, and a signed book plate with your preorder of Den of Liars???
The US Preorder Campaign
This time, I decided to do something a little different for my preorder campaign. Because I know that independent bookstores have been hit pretty hard by the difficulties in the economy, I really wanted to support them by directing as many of you to indie bookstores as possible for your Den of Liars preorders. So! Here are the details!
The two art prints were illustrated by Julie Lochridge (the same artist who did the art for my preorder campaigns for my first two books! Safe to say I’m obsessed with her work ;) The bookplate and bookmark were designed by Carmen Di Mauro (the same artist who designed the ones for A Forgery of Roses)!
Below, find the links to the preorder pages of all of the participating independent bookstores where you’ll get this exclusive gift! (Note that you don’t have to be local to these stores to be able to preorder from them—they ship anywhere in the US!)
Here’s a closer look at those beautiful pieces of art! I’m so obsessed.
If you preorder from somewhere else (amazon, another indie store, Walmart, Target, etc), don’t worry—you’ll still get one of the art prints (the first one with Lola, the Liar, and the Thief) and the bookmark! Just make sure to head over to THIS LINK to input your details and proof of preorder!
And if you’re wanting to get your hands on a signed and/or personalized copy, sit tight, because those details will be coming your way super soon along with the information about my launch event here in Texas!
To see all the details about the preorder campaign in one spot, you can head over to my preorder campaign page on my website.
And to my international readers, I’m so sorry, these preorder goodies are only available to US residents (I know that’s a huge bummer). Unfortunately, with shipping costs being what they are, we aren’t able to ship out of the country. To make up for it, I’m offering a giveaway below that is open internationally!
An international physical galley giveaway!
I have one more physical galley I want to give away to one of you! All you need to do to enter is respond to this email (or comment on this post if you’re viewing this on substack) and tell me what your favorite romantasy book is that you’ve ever read (your girl always loves some new recs!)
Giveaway open internationally. Must be 18 or older to enter. When I contact the winner, they must provide a valid mailing address for shipping of the prize. Giveaway closes May 20, 2025 at 11:59pm ET.
Other giveaways you might have missed
There are a few other giveaways going on that I thought I’d let you know about!
I’m running one on my instagram page—it closes tomorrow (May 14), so act quick!
Goodreads is giving away 20 final hardcover copies—this one ends on May 26.
And that’s it! We have only SEVEN WEEKS until Den of Liars hits shelves! Can you believe it??? Thanks for tagging along!
Probably closer to a romantic fantasy but I adored The Knight in the Moth!
I really enjoyed The Remnant Chronicles/Dance of Thieves! The Witchlands could be considered Romantasy, but it’s more Epic Fantasy.
