Book Description
Book 3 of this funny, paranormal urban fantasy series keeps you laughing and makes you think! Winnie's powerhouse narration style and plots full of twists and turns make every page jump. ~~~ 5.0 out of 5 stars So Much FUN! Reviewed in the United States on September 5, 2021 Verified Purchase I am laughing and loving this series. Snarky, quirky, attitude, humor, a god in a speedo, a protecting cat that grows in size and ferocious fairies – what more do you need? This is a series that you need to start at the first one and work your way through. There is so much to enjoy here. Once again Patra is up to her cute butt in issues, bars and a few werewolves (ok it helps that they are hot!). Her best witchy friend is dealing with some new feelings and trying to lead her coven with a rogue witch and her ever-amusing mom (I know there is more to this mom as we keep getting glimpses of her incredible life). Wait – I forgot to mention – DRAGONS! This series manages to present a good story and food for thought at the same time keeps you reading because it is just FUN! ~~~ I had a handle on things, then the dragons showed up. On the average day, I juggle the human and magical worlds with a reasonable amount of skill. Based on the dude exhaling sparks in front of me, today isn’t most days. I’m Cleopatra O’Keefe, a one jigger juggernaut holding the line between the worlds while slinging drinks and using a symbiont book to help me parse these human, magical, and omnipotent miscreants. I’m just one woman, people. Reality much? Dragon-human hookups are impossible, but Sparky is as real as I am. Poseidon and his ratty red speedo are MIA, and the incoming info all points to the dragons. My question is, are dragons the bad guys or are Olympians pulling my chain? Their track record kinda sucks. The Speedo is down. Crud. Day 6,935 of the weirdest job on the planet.

Book Description
Book 5 of this funny, paranormal urban fantasy series keeps you laughing and makes you think! Winnie's powerhouse narration style and plots full of twists and turns make every page jump. ~~~ 5.0 out of 5 stars Twisty, satisfying and heartbreaking. Reviewed in the United States on August 1, 2022 Verified Purchase I originally got into this series because of the clever blurb and the image of Poseidon in a Speedo. I haven't looked back, or been disappointed! In "Funkin' Weird" the world has just made a turn of cosmic proportions and the magical and non-magical elements are seeking balance--with the added complication of a new race. No one knows how this will go but the races are vying for the top spot! My mind was blown by the twisty way the plot unfolded and in no way could I have anticipated the way it manifested. With snarky humor and amazing insights into the nature of the universe as well as wonderful inner dialog from the main characters, Winnie Winkle delivers. Not to mention Titanic sex scenes, and Funkin' Weird drinks! I can't recommend this series enough! ~~~ Down is up, lore is lie, and when the titans aren’t busy boinkin’ they’re getting buzzed. It’s shading weird around here. What's really cookin' my logistical noodle is the immortals. They're dying. Not the most accurate branding, right? I've got a handful of puzzle pieces that don't fit, and a sense of doom that won't quit. What happens when an immortal dies? I wish I knew. As the Keeper, I’m trying to hold the magical and human worlds aligned. I’ve got a symbiotic book, a partner, and dumb luck. The upheaval in Olympus is tinder for a witch war. My lover’s a god who thinks gaming the system is fine, my bestie is a witch ready to toss the Olympians out on their butts, and I’ve got to save a new magical race that can’t find their behinds with both hands and a flashlight. Then the real deal showed up ready to burn the world to the ground. I’m screwed, and it’s only Wednesday.

Book Description
Book 4 of this funny, paranormal urban fantasy series keeps you laughing and makes you think! Winnie's powerhouse narration style and plots full of twists and turns make every page jump. ~~~ I’m Cleopatra O’Keefe, and I’m tired AF. In the past year, I’ve managed to keep a pile of unappreciative gods and magicals on track, and now a rogue, full-on-jerk pixie king I didn’t know existed is determined to burn the world—and take me out with it. Normally, I'd see this as a shrug and slug back proposition, but the past year's ginormous battles had a price. I need a freaking miracle. The entire world is ready for a drink. And that pixie’s gotta go. So far, the cocktails are the only part I’ve got handled. My rock, my forever love, is on the other side of the globe working to help me, but the distance limits what he can do. We’re all in survival’s countdown, but I’m not down for the count. Yet. The pixie king’s army just blew my safe harbor to smithereens, and everyone I love is at risk. Time to pour a fat glass of payback. ~~~ Reviews for The Record Series: "A magnificent experience following a magical introduction to the Keeper. An urban magical sci-fi that will rock your socks bringing a new look at the lives and levels of gods, magicals of every form and the role of mankind. Reading this magically woven tale brings both warmth and sadness into your heart. It is sooo well written. I believe it is a tale to be kept once finished to read again and again when joy is needed in your life. So acquire "Boogie Beach: The Record, Book One" as soon as you can, because truly it will blow your socks off." Goodreads Review "I did not know what to expect going into the book and it was a wild, unexpected and fun ride! If you love snark, paranormal anything, and well-written, you will love this book." Verified Amazon Review "I loved this second book in the series because it really kept me guessing where things were going. I wasn't crying through this book, instead I was on the edge of my seat. Loved the ending in this one, but I still can't wait to see what happens in the next book!" Verified Amazon Review "Overall, it's a breezy fun novel that kept me guessing, laughing, and wanting more." Verified Amazon Review Winnie Winkle's story telling: "Smart writing full of dark humor that compels you to read page after page to see who, or what comes next." Goodreads Review "Winkle's extraordinary way of narration is absolutely remarkable. Every detail was neatly arranged and as the plot began to unravel there were so many moments of surprising twists."

Book Description
First Contact is about to get fugly. It’s time to rock out a plan to recruit more humans, so Bongo, Delilah, and Billy Bob, their little green pal from Hepcurtia, take their First Contact show on the road. With humans receiving advanced tech and space travel and the Heps getting a much needed new set of eyes on their planet-sized problem, Team Billy is riding a win. Too bad a gang of fuglies–AKA the Overlaws–want to steal their alien transport. And kill them. Or kidnap Billy Bob. Possibly all three. Evil is fluid. After Delilah saves their butts, the plan morphs into “hunker down in Cassadaga,” a sleepy Florida psychic town sporting a ghost and a pile of FBI hotties. But it doesn’t take a clairvoyant to know the Overlaws aren’t hitting the snooze button. No rules. Tons of guns. With these guys, violence is always option one. Team Billy is almost out of time to fly their latest batch of Earth volunteers to the Hepcurtian homeworld, expose old and new secrets, thwart greed, and slurp that sweet, sweet moonshine. Can they sober up and win the moment? With Delilah behind the wheel and Billy in the back, the sky is no longer the limit. Tune in to the second careening caper! --- Reviews are in for Book 1, and readers LOVE it! D. Antonio 5.0 out of 5 stars Hilarious Reviewed in the United States on October 27, 2022 Verified Purchase Check your brain at the door, remove all breakables from the area and make sure you won’t disturb anyone; then kick back and enjoy this fun filled laugh out loud romp. I giggle snorted my way through this tale of accountants, rednecks and aliens. ET has nothing on Blleburbk. And amidst all the laughter there is a really important story about sustainability and acceptance. I adored this book and can’t wait for future adventures. Leslie Moore 5.0 out of 5 stars Alien Glamour Reviewed in the United States on November 5, 2022 This tasty start to a new series has it all.

Book Description
A Sunday Times (UK) Book of the Year Shortlisted • Society of Authors' Somerset Maugham Award A BBC Radio 4 Book of the Week The best-selling author of The Secret Lives of Color returns with this rollicking narrative of the 30,000-year history of fabric, briskly told through thirteen charismatic episodes. From colorful 30,000-year-old threads found on the floor of a Georgian cave to the Indian calicoes that sparked the Industrial Revolution, The Golden Thread weaves an illuminating story of human ingenuity. Design journalist Kassia St. Clair guides us through the technological advancements and cultural customs that would redefi ne human civilization—from the fabric that allowed mankind to achieve extraordinary things (traverse the oceans and shatter athletic records) and survive in unlikely places (outer space and the South Pole). She peoples her story with a motley cast of characters, including Xiling, the ancient Chinese empress credited with inventing silk, to Richard the Lionhearted and Bing Crosby. Offering insights into the economic and social dimensions of clothmaking—and countering the enduring, often demeaning, association of textiles as “merely women’s work”—The Golden Thread offers an alternative guide to our past, present, and future.

A funny, paranormal urban fantasy book that keeps you laughing and makes you think! Winnie's powerhouse narration style and plots full of twists and turns make every page jump. 5.0 out of 5 stars Thrilled to find such a well written and interesting book! Reviewed in the United States on April 3, 2022 Verified Purchase Beautifully written with a fresh take on an interaction with the pantheon. It grabbed me and wrenched emotions from me one after another. Loved it! And the best part is that there are more books in the series to read. Now please excuse me as I dive into the next one. ~~~ Two bars, one magical and one human, lie in the exact same space. That should work. It’d better; I run those joints and we’re under attack. I live a pretty weird life—as in gods in speedos, powerful witches with little patience for mere humans, and shifters whose vibrations make my guts quake. Plus, an oceanside bar and a magical book run my existence. Beach life and eccentric are besties. The record picked me, Cleopatra O’Keefe, to be the next Keeper. I took over the book and started chronicling the intersection and occasional asininity of the human and magical worlds. That’s when eccentric plunked its butt on the deck next to mine and we careened into the world of funky oddities seasoned with occasional mayhem. I’ve juggled the two worlds for almost twenty years, but my pier is under attack from the one entity feared by gods and magicals alike. Between slinging drinks, writing the history, and trying to keep the worlds in balance, I’m discovering that the Keeper’s job has way more depth than the magicals told me. Who’s lying? Which bits are truth? I’m at a crossroads and it’s time to make a choice. Toe the line and live, or save the world and die? Typical Tuesday.
