I am Barbara B., new
to challenges, new to Europa editions
and new to The Europa Challenge. Marie suggested I join this challenge when I was
casting about for one. I looked over the Europa editions website, and thought
these look interesting. I like literary fiction and mysteries. Europa offers both. I’m really looking forward to Europa noir.
I moved to central Virginia from Maine a little over three
years ago. In Maine I was a features editor for a daily newspaper and later
taught English to students with learning disabilities at a private school.
I’m enthusiastic about joining this website and have
committed to six books – but if others prove as good as my first, Kerrigan’s
Little Criminals, I may read far more.

Hi, Barbara. Glad to see you join the challenge. I read Kerrigan's The Midnight Choir some time ago, and don't know why I haven't gotten to LIttle Criminals yet. It sounds like one I should get to sooner rather than later.
ReplyDeleteWelcome Barbara! I'm so glad you decided to join and I can't wait to read your reviews! I know for me Europas are like potato chips (can't eat just a few) and I'm looking forward to seeing what you pick!
ReplyDeleteSeana,
ReplyDeleteI have just ordered both The Midnight Choir and The Rage which is coming out in February. It's such fun to discover a new writer.
Marie,
Why didn't I discover these potato chips earlier?
Yum. Thanks again.
Glad to see a new blogger join, Barbara! Thanks for your review; I've been thinking of checking out Kerrigan. I totally agree with Marie on Europas, and if you like both literary fiction and mysteries you'll have found your perfect publisher!
