And here we are, number 99! I started the #read99women series back in January as a way to celebrate the paperback release of WOMAN 99, and boy, could I not have foreseen just how many years long these few months would feel! Thank you for reading along with this fun little project. I’m working on an index-plus of all the books mentioned, but as you might imagine, it’s taking some time. Until then, stay tuned to the blog for other fun stuff, including news about my next book THE ARCTIC FURY, which comes out in trade paperback in December 2020. (Add it to your to-read shelf on Goodreads by clicking here!)

And please join me in welcoming our 99th guest (!!!) for #read99women!

“Imagine Bridget Jones as a high-powered attorney in Singapore! Lauren Ho's sparkling, hilarious romantic comedy about a career woman searching for love and trying to have it all is an absolute charmer! I fell head over heels for Ho's heroine and this is one of those delicious books that I couldn't put down and didn't want to end! A frothy and fabulous pageturner full of laughs and warmth, this is exactly what we all need right now!”
