I can’t wait to read “Out of the Ordinary”! I love the cover. I have to admit, I’m a bit of a cover snob. I don’t really mean to be. It’s just that if they don’t grab my attention, I don’t give them a second thought unless, I see something in the description that catches my eye or someone recommends the book.
I look forward to reading your work!
Happy Writing!
