The Ruby's Place Christmas Collection (Holly Schindler)

In the spirit of writing about something other than MG, I wanted to let Smack Dab readers know about my newest release, an adult book called The Gift That Is Ruby's Place. 

As some of you already know, I’ve been working on a magical Christmas series for some time now—The Ruby’s Place Christmas Collection, which has seen a new book release each Christmas since 2017. The books follow the ups and downs of a bar called Ruby’s Place, where the Christmas “sprits” are all alive and well. This year, I’ve released the finale. It works as a standalone, so even if you haven’t read the other works, you can jump in. If you’ve been reading along as the series has progressed, you’ll see some previous events from a new angle, understand the characters in a new light.

THE GIFT THAT IS RUBY'S PLACE just went live on all the usual channels:

Amazon 

B&N

Kobo

Apple

If you'd like to read the collection from the start, all four books are available as a single download at Amazon.

The reason I wanted to let you all know about this release is because (as the song goes) we need a little Christmas. We’re all facing so many challenges and struggles this year—whether you’re caring for children or senior parents (as I am), facing financial hurdles, or attempting to navigate a complex new school system—the only thing that’s certain is just how rocky times are. I know that one of the brightest spots of my days is hearing from so many wonderful MG enthusiasts. Teachers and parents and librarians who have been working so tirelessly for our young readers. I wanted to be sure and reach out to all of you with the offer to send an e-copy of THE GIFT THAT IS RUBY’S PLACE via Bookfunnel as well. I'd love to spread a little Christmas cheer.

If you’d like a copy, just reply here and give me a shout. Leave a comment. Email me at hollyschindlerbooks (at) gmail (dot) com. 

Thanks again—I’m looking forward to hearing from you.

Warmly,

Holly Schindler
