Hello, friend! Thank you for joining me on this virtual coffee date.
Today’s Cuppa: The cover of THANK YOU FOR SHARING’s UK edition!!
It is gorgeous (obviously) and was designed and illustrated by Leah Candace Jacobs-Gordon.
The clasped hands! The color blocking! Daniel’s exposed forearms! LIYAH’S THIGHS!!!!!!!!!!! Leah and the team at Hera did a FANTASTIC job and I’m so stoked to see this one next to the US edition on my shelves. I love that they both have that soft teal moment.
UK folks, you can find pre-order links here.

A Biscotti with Your Coffee
Books: I recently finished Marlowe Banks, Redesigned by Jacqueline Firkins. There was so much depth and heart and growth for our dear Marlowe and you could tell how much of an expert in costume design Firkins is—I LOVE when an author’s other passions come through in their work. I just started The Neighbor Favor by Kristina Forest and LET ME TELL YOU between this one and Romantic Comedy, I think I’m finding out that extended email exchanges are my favorite epistolary element in a romance novel. Why is it so romantic??? Why am I kicking my feet and giggling at Nick telling Lily to call him “Strick?” Ask Forest, not me.
I’m writing this on Thursday night from the seat of an airplane as we’re about to pull away from the gate so 1. it’s brief and 2. please don’t hold me accountable for any typos (watch this be my first typo-free newsletter lmao (spoiler: it wasn’t. that remains my white whale)).
Mwah,
Rachel Runya Katz
