UNCHANGEABLE SPOTS OF LEOPARDS
This is certainly one of the best books I read in the past year. It’s fresh and funny, yet somehow heartening and grounding. Here is what I wrote about it when first released:
This is the The Talented Mr. Ripley for the newest generation. It’s a twisting tale of identity and the search for true companionship. (read the full review)
Jansma’s debut novel comes out in paperback soon and I highly recommend it for the intelligent reader in your life. In the meantime, I have one copy to giveaway…

BookExpo America (BEA) is the largest annual book trade fair in the United States. One of the most important events on BEA is Bloggers Conference. This year BEA is held in New York in late May (May 29- 31). And we hope to be in NYC during that time. We'd love to meet you, chat and hang out :-)
This year's BEA Bloggers Conference topics aren't set yet but we have some ideas for discussion panels. Our session proposal is about creating book blogging communities and supporting mutual relationships, i.e.: Book Bloggers Connect!
What do you think? Let us know about your ideas and topic suggestions in comments below or send them directly to BEA Bloggers Conference Team here: 2014 Call For Ideas — Now Open!
Let's connect on BEA Bloggers Conference :-) There's no better place to make it happen!

I am fascinated by tales of the ocean, mysteries of the sea (I even have an interest in cryptozoology). The ocean is just so vast and for centuries uncharted. It was the greatest adventure anyone could embark upon. But even with maps and coordinates and best laid plans, ships disappear. What’s significant about the Mary Celeste is that she reappeared. She was found near the Azores completely abandoned and sailing under her own power. Her cargo was untouched, no damage was found and no one ever heard from anyone who was aboard ever again. All of this is true.

REVIEW: THE REVENANT OF THRAXTON HALL
Those with more than a passing familiarity of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle are aware of his interest in the supernatural. Perhaps mostly famous is his publication of the Cottingley Fairies photographs. Aside from theosophy, he also sought out mediums, ever hopeful that the dead can speak to those still living and perhaps he could reach out once more to his father, his wife and his son.
This novel is completely fiction, but is based on Doyle’s own leanings. The author imagines a case in which the outcome of a seance convinces Doyle of impending murder. In order to prevent the crime, he ventures to the country house with his unlikely friend Oscar Wilde (The two really were friends). It is a Thraxton Hall that there is to be a meeting, a symposium of the best minds in paranormal research. And it is here that the murder is supposed to take place.

Whether you believe in Friday 13th bad luck or not, we wish you all the best and all the luck. Btw, we think the superstition about bad luck black cats was made up by white cats' gang. Just look at those pics! Black cats are no-bad-luck book lovers!
