Jane Austen Drinking a Caramel Ribbon Crunch Frappuccino

I know, I know. Caramel. Crunch. Or maybe it’s the Mocha Cookie Crumble that has your number. No doubt Jane Austen would have gone for the crunch rather than, say, Hume’s multi-volume History of England, and where would we be now? If Scott wouldn’t have made the decision on his own, Zelda would have insisted that last $5 be spent for a Mocha Cookie Crumble rather than A Farewell to Arms. If Beatrix Potter had had to pass by the Tazo Iced Green Tea Latte …
1Meg_Waite_Clayton_Wednesday_Sisters292x450aat72A single, fattening frappuccino, or copies of one very low-calorie 99¢ nationally bestselling novel for five friends like the friends in The Wednesday Sisters (Random House/Ballantine)? Or if you haven’t already read The Wednesday Sisters, you can get a copy for yourself, and enough change back from your $5 to buy a frappaccino to drink while you read. It’s 99¢ across all platforms this week, so that means Kindle, iTunes, and Barnes and Noble–or you can support your local bookseller by buying Kobo.
And I am so jazzed to share the cover wrap for the follow-up, The Wednesday Daughters, which The Paris Wife author Paula McLain calls “Utterly rich and satisfying.” Sort of like that Caramel Crunch thing! Happy Reading! – Meg
