Books make excellent presents because:

1) you can enjoy them more than once

2) they’re bigger on the inside

3) they’re easy to wrap

Nice to be included on this @BookRiot list--my only quibble is that Hawai'i is part of the United States! Maybe "continental" should be added. https://bookriot.com/2019/12/06/mystery-books-where-the-victim-is-not-a-woman/?fbclid=IwAR3KN3Kv3aNEmlgKNbpHOSK0ob2YqFAgECsHpRHpd7_Yh_Ds9qhBMXV33eM

Instagram post 2196811798450286145_2535770063 What inspired Gar Anthony Haywood to write Good Man Gone Bad after a 19-year hiatus of the Aaron Gunner mysteries? How does he figure out what to write next? Haywood discusses his writing process and more in his latest @crimereads article!
Instagram post 2196255279136741640_2535770063 Standing room only for @_charlesphoenix and Holiday Jubilee at Vroman’s. Ho ho ho!
Instagram post 2191735630063944942_2535770063 Our latest mystery is finally here! An Old Man's Game by debut author Andy Weinberger introduces Amos Parisman, a retired private eye who is hired to look into the death of a controversial rabbi.
Instagram post 2183837506792248846_2535770063 Stellar afternoon at the Huntington with our wonderful authors Bill Esparza and Elisa Callow. Boy are we lucky to get to live in LA and wallow in its world-class food. Thanks to Val Zavala for her usual smart interviewing. @thehuntingtonlibrary @thehuntingtonstore #bookstagram #lamexicano #urbanforager
Instagram post 2181599105942717841_2535770063 2020 is shaping up to be a stellar year for Prospect Park! Look for these in March and April.
Instagram post 2180854833492644478_2535770063 Our latest release: Oscar Mandel's LAST PAGES. ------ "What do I find in Last Pages that might make me want to tell my friend, ‘Here, you should read this?’ To this question there are several answers—as one would expect, given Mandel’s range—but perhaps they can be summed up in two adjectives: witty and grim…. There is abundant wit in the play The Fatal French Dentist… [and] the two stories are clever parodies…. Yes, although Mandel describes himself as essentially cheerful, he is not always so. He can be profoundly serious, especially in his poetry, which is masterful.” — Jake Fuchs in @lareviewofbooks
Instagram post 2175818773331149773_2535770063 This is a FREE event that you really don't want to miss! Esparza and Callow look beyond the widely-touted food trends to celebrate the authentic traditions that are the legacy of a multitude of food cultures. Both long-time Angelenos are confirmed believers that Los Angeles has always been a food city, and that our city is just now waking up to its culinary brilliance. #losangeles #lafoodie #lafood #cookbook #reallosangeles #angeleno
