I put up a post yesterday about the sudden passing of author Jessica Strong who I know through the Clean Indie Reads Facebook group.
In that post I outlined that the Clean Indie Reads group is pushing an effort to get our membership that are interested to do a little something in memory of her. On December 26th, as a little remembrance / coordinated effort to do something to honor her passing, we are going to buy her books all on that day.
As part of my own comments in that thread I said “I’d like to think we could get her to #1 with a coordinated effort such as this on Saturday 12/26…” “If I lived nearby and brought flowers or something to the family to say goodbye, I would spend so much more (and it would be equally worth it).”
So that is what I am going to do. I am going to log in at 9AM EST, “drop” $16.00, and get all her books.
Between now and then, I am going to showcase her books on my blog and on my author page over at Facebook.
Today I am showcasing “Bertie O’Brien and the Button Factory: How Bertie O’Brien built a button factory slaying monsters”
I can’t give you a review of it; as I mentioned, the CIR group is going to do all our shopping on Saturday and then I will need to put it into my TBR bundle, but in the meantime I can share the summary with you and the existing reviews:
SYNOPSIS: I always knew there was a family secret. I just didn’t know how big that secret was until I went to visit my great Aunt Maggie. There in her attic she told me what everyone had tried to keep hidden all these years. My great, great Uncle Bertie was a monster slayer, but you won’t believe how he slew them. I’m still not sure I believe it myself.
Print Length is 39 pages, it was released on July 12, 2014 through Amazon Digital Services, Inc. (ASIN: B00LRWITEE).

I am struggling to grasp that she was taken so quickly. I am going to try to reblog this. I shared it on Google+
