Originally posted on Creative Madness Mama.I'm a few books behind on my book list for Susan Meissner, but I'm excited seeing the covers and descriptions of her latest releases from new-to-me publisher NAL (New American Library), part of the Penguin Random House family of publishers. I was expecting a copy of Stars Over Sunset Boulevard to review, but it never arrived so I only a few days ago acquired a digital copy. So soon, I hope to update a review for you, which I can almost guarantee with my past experiences with Susan's writing to be good!
