In a small town in the woods of northwest Wyoming, Kasey Cobb lives alone in a cabin, runs a drive-through coffee kiosk, and hangs out at the library, reading the classics. He’s the least-likely guy to become the center of a culture clash… and death. Yet that’s what happens when he strays past a book-bonfire, ignited by a pastor and his hapless followers, and inadvertently rescues a self-important (drunk) author from being burned with his obscure novel.
From that moment on, Kasey’s life becomes a whirlwind that sweeps up a laconic lawman, a pissed off grizzly bear, a relentless podcaster, a sensuous librarian obsessed with death, a fierce female rancher and, most troublesome of all, a devious murderer. And yet, amidst the chaos, Kasey chases another shot at a lasting love, even if it might kill him.
"Tim Sandlin writes about falling down, screwing up, and climbing back to grace with more wit and heart than anyone writing today." Wally Lamb
Lit by Tim Sandlin is expected out December 2, 2025 from Brash Books.
Why am I waiting on this book? I like cozy mysteries. I think it's an interesting idea to have a subversive take on the genre. And I like that this author incorporates humor into his works.
What book are you waiting on? Share it and a link in the comments so we can check it out and maybe add it to our TBR lists. Thanks for coming by. Happy Reading!
This looks as if Sandlin might be an author I'd really enjoy. While I appreciate my escapism, if an author can also provide a sardonic commentary on what's going on outside the book covers, then I'm always especially happy! Thank you for sharing:).
ReplyDeleteI haven't read him yet either, but I was intrigued in part for the same reason you listed. Your pick for the week, Alchemy and Tea, has a pretty cover and an interesting premise. Hope you enjoy it!
