This isn& #39;t meant to be comprehensive. It& #39;s just meant to be. Share, add, quibble - let& #39;s spread the word on books that matter today.
My initial point was to ask writers not use these world-shaking events to sell your own books. Instead, let& #39;s spread the word on books that could really benefit from the attention, that have something to say.
One more, because @Drrramina is the best - please pick up #FASHIONVICTIM, a timely, intense and amazing read - https://www.indiebound.org/book/9781683318347">https://www.indiebound.org/book/9781...
