Have you tried Rebecca’s Thorne’s Tomes & Tea series? It will be a complete series by the end of this year. Light cozy fantasy adventure. There’s tea, puns, dragons, and pirates.

Hopefully, you can do t miss an important plot point!

And I definitely get wanting to hang on to it. 😀

I just finished Molly’s The War of Words and IMMEDIATELY add this one to my TBR.

Definitely return it. I’ve seen some crazy things in my bookselling days, but this is definitely a new one.

Hatshepsut’s story is fascinating! I’ve not read this one yet. I discovered her story on a random historical fiction book I picked up ages ago.

I did get to see Egyptian artifacts in Philly from her reign. Powerful.

The title of the book: The War of Words: How America's GI Journalists Battled Censorship and Propaganda to Help World War II. Author Molly Guptill Manning, New York Times bestselling author of When Books Went to War

"Staying informed requires effort. ... World War II shows us that information and truth mattered. They still do. And they are worth whatever effort is necessary to seek them, because they are the ingredients for democracy and peace." from The War of Words by Molly Guptill Manning
