Stephanie Dray July Newsletter

Giveaways and other goodies exclusively for subscribers are in the Historical Book of the Month Club below, but before I announce the winners, here are a few of my favorite things.

Happy Bastille Day! July is a month in which Americans celebrate a spirit of independence and rebellion against tyranny. So, too, do the French. In 1789, Parisians dismantled the ancient fortress of the Bastille stone by stone, thus ridding themselves of a symbol of fear and oppression. The world would never be the same. I had the good fortune to write about the women of the French Revolution both in my new novel, The Women of Chateau Lafayette and in Ribbons of Scarlet, which brings me to... Drinks with Dames! Tonight I'll be chatting and imbibing live with my fabulous co-authors Laura Kamoie, Eliza Knight, Sophie Perinot, Kate Quinn & Heather Webb. We'll be taking questions at 7pm EST, so be sure to sign up >>>  here! A New Book Cover! Saving the best for last, look at the gorgeousness pictured right now that I'm sharing the cover of The Women of Chateau Lafayette with the world! Isn't it beautiful? It's also available for pre-order, which is the best kind of order. LOL! For a chance at an ADVANCED REVIEW COPY, sign up >>>  here!

P.S. I'm experimenting with the newsletter's look. What do you think? P.P.S. As always, I'm grateful for the invitation to pop into your mailbox each month, so feel free to pop into mine by replying with whatever's on your mind.

And now, let's get our read on ... HISTORICAL BOOK OF THE MONTH CLUB I give away FREE BOOKS every month! Each month I review a book and choose a new one to give away. But there's more. My newsletter subscribers also get the chance to win the grand prize--winner's choice of any book featured in this newsletter. This month's grand prize winner is Svetlana Li. Just reply to claim your prize! Everyone else is automatically entered in next month's drawing.

BOOK OF THE MONTH My take: Grab some popcorn and slide into your fuzzy slippers for an indulgent and voyeuristic read that exposes the glamour and dysfunction of high society during the interwar years. Thelma's romance with the future King of England is one of heartbreak and betrayal, but her salvation is sisterly love. All in all, a delightful debut written with Turnbull's deft touch!  (Buy it!)

NEXT BOOK OF THE MONTH Summary: The New York Times bestselling authors of The Glass Ocean and The Forgotten Room return with a glorious historical adventure that moves from the dark days of two World Wars to the turbulent years of the 1960s, in which three women with bruised hearts find refuge at Paris’ legendary Ritz hotel.  (Buy it!) Winner: Yaritza Santana, reply to claim your prize!

JULY FACEBOOK GIVEAWAY Summary: Grace is an icon of glamor and elegance. The picture of perfection. The girl in white gloves. But she knows the sacrifices it takes for an unappreciated girl from Philadelphia to defy her family and become the reigning queen of the screen. The heartbreaking reasons she trades Hollywood for a crown. The loneliness of being a princess in a fairy tale kingdom facing a labyrinth of romantic and social expectations, Grace must find her own way. But what she risks she may never get back. (Buy it!) Winner: Lou Waters just reply to claim your prize!

AUGUST FACEBOOK GIVEAWAY Summary: Gold is a fever. Will it lead her to love ... or death?  1873. Eliza Penrose arrives in the gold mining town of Maiden's Creek in search of her brother, planning to make a new life for herself. Instead she finds a tragic mystery - and hints of betrayals by those closest to her. (Buy it!) For a chance to win,  >>> Comment here <<<
