“And so this is Christmas…” These are the books my lovely bride Victoria Blewer, our amazing Grace Experience, and Grace‘s fantastic fiancé Stephen Shore found under the tree yesterday. May you all always have a book you love by your bedside!
Galleys of my 2026 novel arrived…and they match our tree and my beloved pup‘s blue eye! Learn more about THE AMATEUR at https://tinyurl.com/5avp55ph!
Out shopping today? Your bookstore might still have signed copies of THE JACKAL‘S MISTRESS. I signed thousands (and thousands) for bookstores, and I take pride in my banger penmanship – and the weird reality that I never forgot my cursive.
Happiest of birthdays, Jane Austen! 250 years old and more vital than ever! This is my 1920 Bigelow and Brown illustrated edition.
So grateful: THE JACKAL‘S MISTRESS is a Library Journal Best Book of 2025! Thank you, LJ!
Bookstores are magical places and booksellers are magical people. And this Barnes & Noble in South Burlington, Vermont is a treasure and not just because they always have in stock SO MANY of my books, including 3 NEWLY SIGNED CASES of THE JACKAL‘S MISTRESS.
Yes, I devoured the new Ian McEwan novel. You will, too.
Holiday shopping today? Well, if you want to give someone one of my novels with a personal inscription, simply visit in-person or online or call the Vermont Book Shop (802 388-2061) in Middlebury, VT or Phoenix Books in Burlington, VT (802 448-3350). They ship and my penmanship is fantastic. Thanks, friends!
Yes, I loved HEARTWOOD!
Color me honored. Thank you, Booklist. Gobsmacked and grateful that THE JACKAL‘S MISTRESS is an Editor‘s Choice Best Book of 2025.
Yes, I loved the new novel from the brilliant Wally Lamb.
Bookstores are magical places and booksellers are magical people. And this Barnes & Noble in South Burlington, Vermont is SUCH a treasure — and not just because they always have in stock SO MANY of my books. (Which ones have you read?) My deepest thanks to (pictured here with me) Jakob and Erin. Not pictured but also smart and kind and altogether wonderful? Scotia, Sebastian, Jeff, Teresa, Tyler, and Mikaela! #bookstores #booksellers

I devour history like this.
Halloween nears. Tis the #spookyseason — beware of The Devil‘s Tines! Have you read HOUR OF THE WITCH? Nearly 13,000 five-star reviews on Goodreads! #witch #Halloween
Yes, I loved every page of Charlotte McConaghy‘s brilliant new novel. You will, too.
Love Story Saturday. Which have you read? #romance #romancebooks
Little late to the party, but sure enjoyed THE MEASURE by Nikki Erlick.
Thank you, my friends: 51,000 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ reviews on Goodreads . Is it time to discover (or rediscover) the novel about a home birth, a midwife on trial, and a young girl coming of age in Vermont that first introduced my work to so many of you? @DoubledayBooks
This is among the most highlighted passages from THE JACKAL‘S MISTRESS. Yes, to mourn is to love. Happiest of Sunday mornings, my friends.
My gosh, I loved the brilliant Garrett Graff‘s latest. This book is riveting and important.
Happy 117th birthday to William Saroyan, the brilliant Armenian-American writer of screenplays, plays, novels, and short stories —. a winner of both the Pulitzer Prize and an Academy Award. He is a role model for me for dozens of reasons, but a big one is the sheer volume of his work. Only a fraction of what he wrote did he deem good enough to share with the world.
I am deeply alarmed by the state of the U.S. Many of you are, too. So, let‘s learn about fascism — a book club, perhaps. But, if nothing else, book suggestions. Let‘s start with WHAT WE KNEW: TERROR, MASS MURDER, AND EVERYDAY LIFE IN NAZI GERMANY.
Trust me, you will love WE ARE ALL GUILTY HERE by the brilliant Karin Slaughter.
I just did something I tell younger writers NEVER to do, and I‘m kind of glad I ignored my usual advice: I peeked at the number of stars for one of my books online and found. . .this. So, I want to thank you, my readers: I am so glad you‘re enjoying THE JACKAL‘S MISTRESS, my Civil War Romeo and Juliet! You‘ve helped make my weekend!
Color me grateful to see THE PRINCESS OF LAS VEGAS here! Thank you, Jen Craven! 10/3 can‘t come soon enough!
My gosh, I love the work of S.A. Cosby . You will, too.
At least once a season, I read or re-read a classic.
Sunday question. Just curious, of my 23 books, which are your favorites? No pressure — not an exam! 📚
There are dozens of reasons why I love Vermont. 🍁But a big one? Vermont readers. 📚I thank you for your faith in my work going back 30 years — and for this Daisy🌼 Color me grateful. Also? Thank you, Seven Days. I‘m so deeply honored.
Put this banger of a book on your list of novels you want to read in 2026!
Yes, I loved DREAM STATE. You will, too. @DoubledayBooks
Huge thanks to the Barnes & Noble in South Burlington, VT. I was so honored to wander in this week and find this display for THE JACKAL‘S MISTRESS. So (yes), I signed so many books! #romance #lovestory #bookstore
Another wonderful novel from Taylor Jenkins Reid.
Pause for the paws. Really loved Julie Klam‘s memoir of her years as a Boston Terrier rescue volunteer.
Really honored: The Jackal‘s Mistress is among BookBub‘s “most wishlisted” books so far in 2025. Thank you! Thanks also to Doubleday Books for that beautiful image!
