Andy Warhol fans should definitely check out the Nook Daily Finds today, the first of which is price matched on Amazon; be sure to report the second and check back this afternoon, if you prefer reading on Kindle. Today would have been his 87th birthday!
The Audible Daily Deal, Heartbreak Hotel, is by Deborah Moggach, the author of The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel. Oddly, the Kindle and Audible Audible editions use completely different dogs and buildings on the cover!
Kobo’s pricing fairies are still having problems figuring out which store to visit (maybe they don’t read French?).
In the Kindle Daily Deals, you get a historical thriller and steampunk with starred reviews, and the first novel in Lauren Dane’s Ink & Chrome erotic romance series, the latest of which was recently featured in a New Releases post. I’m most tempted, though, by the cookbook from Huckleberry Bakery & Café – not only is the cover beautiful, but there are lots of photos inside to illustrate techniques and gluten free options are promised for at least some of the recipes. I took a look at the print edition and there are a few specifically GF and most of a chapter that is naturally GF, while others (like the signature Blueberry Cornmeal Cake) should be easily adaptable to gluten-free baking.
Today on Amazon’s Gold Box, save up to 96% on Invicta Men’s Watches Starting at $59.99.
Today’s Kindle Daily Deal is Traitor’s Gate ($1.99), by Charlie Newton [Thomas & Mercer]. Publishers Weekly Starred Review
Book Description
The drums of war beat amid global economic ruin. The skies, not the trenches, will decide the survivors. Rich men marshal their resources as all sides race to acquire 100-octane aviation gasoline, an unproven, unstable witches’ brew that could fuel the fastest attack aircraft. In a brutal maze of corporate treason, personal blackmail, and imperfect heroism, a young, brilliant petroleum engineer battling the Dust Bowl in Oklahoma may hold the key.Eight years ago in Jerusalem, schoolgirl Saba Hassouneh survived the murder of her family. Sentenced to the barbaric refugee camps, Saba is freed by a legendary Bedouin freedom-fighter. She embraces his life of a bandit/rebel, evolving into a fearsome Arab nationalist femme de guerre hunted by the colonial powers and religious mullahs. Saba has one mission: free her people.
An epic historical thriller from acclaimed author Charlie Newton, Traitor’s Gate races toward the first shot of WWII. As the world’s true rulers vie for dominion, two unlikely lovers collide. Their attraction is immediate, their goals opposite.
