Cover Reveal: 'My Rock and My Refuge' {by Rachel Kovaciny}

-
Today, I'm honored to be participating in the cover reveal for the latest installment of Rachel Kovaciny's Once Upon a Western series! OUAW is a collection of clean stand-alone non-magical fairytale retellings set in the Old West. They're oodles of fun, and you should absolutely check them out if you've never read one.

My personal favorite of the series, so far, is Dancing and Doughnuts, which is a reimagining of The Twelve Dancing Princesses.  However . . . I gotta say, the more I hear about the newest book, the more excited I become.  I have a feeling it might edge out DaD. 😉

What is this newest book, you ask?  It's Ms. Kovaciny's take on one of the most classic of all fairytales:  Beauty and the Beast!  It's entitled My Rock and My Refuge, and it releases November 8, 2022!

And, as you might have guessed, it has a lovely cover:


Isn't that the perfect cover for a Western retelling of Beauty and the Beast?  I love it.  Now, you probably want to know a little more of what the book is about.  Here's the official blurb:

When a German baker and her brother take jobs working for a wealthy recluse, they're only hoping to earn enough money to help their parents regain the family's bakery.

But they soon learn that gold and silver aren't the only treasures to be found in the Colorado mountains.

Sounds promising, doesn't it?  I, for one, am stoked to read it.

Comments make my day. Seriously. I'd be so happy if you commented. :)

I've gotten really bad about replying in a timely manner, but it's always my intention to do so eventually. (Even though it doesn't always happen. ;))

Lark Rise to Candleford, Seasons 1-4 {review}

Well, darlin's, here 't'is!  A review of the TV series Lark Rise to Candleford .   SO!  I finished the final season the other night, and am here to discuss my thoughts;)  (Spoilers will be sprinkled indiscriminately!  Read at your own risk;D) LRtC centers around young Laura Timmins, a girl from the wee hamlet of Lark Rise, who moves to the  more affluent town of Candleford to work in her aunt's (or was she just a cousin?) post office.  Miss Dorcas Lane is probably the wealthiest person in Candleford and holds a lot of sway with the townspeople.  With Laura's advent into Candleford, the two communities begin to be intertwined. The show's basic plots aren't my absolute favorites, but I love how relaxed the show is, and how marvelous the characters are.  (Because they just ARE.)  It's a cozy series, but at the same time there are moments of rather intense drama.   I'm not feeling extremely eloquent for reviewin...

Romeo and Juliet (2013) {review}

[Note:  Keep in mind that this review is written from the perspective of someone who has never actually read Romeo and Juliet , m'kay?:)  Also, there'll be spoilers, because, I mean…all things considered, you probably know how it all ends.] I first became seriously interested in watching this movie a) because of the utter gorgeousness of all the stills I saw on the Internet, and b) because it has Hailee Steinfeld.  I'd only seen her in True Grit (2011), but, I thought, wouldn't it be cool to see her in a completely different role? So, yesterday, I watched it.  And…I'm not quite sure what I think of it. First things first.  This movie was beautiful .  It was one of those films where you think, "I want just about this entire movie in screencaps."  The cinematography was excellent.  The lighting, the camera angles, the costumes and sets …aaaaaaahhhhh. See what I mean?? Hailee Steinfeld was absolutely precious as Juliet Capul...

My Dream Cast for a Live-Action Remake of 'The Incredibles'

Alas, no, I am aware of no immediate plans for Disney to produce a live-action version of The Incredibles .  But if such plans should ever materialize . . . have I got a cast ready for them or what. 😉 ⸻ Elastigirl / Helen Parr Emma Stone Emma would rock Helen's grit & sass like no other actress available today & I will not be accepting criticism of that statement at this time.  I would absolutely love to see her in this role.  She would crush it.  Mr. Incredible / Bob Parr Eric Allan Kramer I know he's a leetle too old now, especially as a partner for Stone, but he's the only person I've ever been able to envision as Bob.  (Except Alan Hale, Jr., but he's about six feet too old.)  So it is what it is, peeps.  Violet Parr Mackenzie Foy   I went back and forth on the casting for Violet.  I would also love to see what Millie Bobby Brown could do with the role, so it was difficult to decide.  In the end, I think Mackenzie Foy would ...
