Jul 22nd Character Names in Books I Can’t Pronounce – #L&SR’s Blog Challenge

Welcome to #L&SR’s Wednesday Weekly Blogging Challenge July 22, 2020 – Character names in books I can’t Pronounce! Boy that took some thought. Please have a seat, grab an iced tea or lemonade out of the cooler. Be sure and try a chocolate chip or peanut butter cookie. Today, I also have something a little different after my post on today’s topic. If you have a few minutes take a look at what makes my A Witch’s Holiday Wedding different besides is on sale for 99 cnet to celebrate Christmas In July. What do parrots know about PTSD? Take a peek and you’ll find out. Animal lovers don’t miss this.

Here we go. After nearly short-circuiting my brain, I finally came up with only one, it’s The Kate Daniel’s Series by Ilona Andrews.

I love this series. But the characters are numerous and their names, well, sometimes I have to stop and figure out how to pronounce them. Does it distract from reading the series. No, not any more. It really helped in the last book she listed all her characters in the series, their duties, roles and pronounced their names. I had most of them right, by the way!

So there you have it, the character names in books I can’t pronounce. How about you? What do you character names you can’t pronounce?

Alas, I must return to my writing cave where deadlines loom with final galley on my upcoming release HIDDEN GYPSY MAGIC, and Chocolate Raspberry Magic is in pre-galley now, and on a new WIP sixth book in A Demon’s Witch Series(very exciting and coming along very well) so let’s see what other authors chose as character names in books they can’t pronounce L&SR

Pssst… While you’re here, don’t forget to check out my paranormal romance/mysteries click here.

Looking an exciting read to whisk you away from your ordinary world into a magical, fantasy adventure ? Got just the thing lets celebrate Christmas in July with A WITCH’S HOLIDAY WEDDING, second in A Witch’s Journey Series. Let me tell you a little about this book and the others in A Witch’s Journey Series you may not be aware. Another aspect to this book and A WItch’s Journey is the disabled vets that Lathen mentors and assists in finding jobs to better their lives. Once a wounded vet himself, alienated and angry, Lathen met Pepper and learned the secrets the animals hold. They don’t judge. They listen. They are able see right into your soul and comfort. They know what you need, if you only listen. At least that’s the way I feel. Wildlife rescue and rehab is near and dear to my heart. Heck rescue of any animal is high on my list. Recently, I read a fantastic article that confirmed my thoughts and believes in the relationship between human and parrots, another of my passions. When you have a few minutes, take a peek at this sobering article from the New York Times Magazine. I think you’ll find it quite informative. Especially if you are an animal lover. https://www.nytimes.com/2016/01/31/magazine/what-does-a-parrot-know-about-ptsd.html

A little about A Witch’s Holiday Wedding:

Elemental witch, Pepper McKay and former Navy SEAL, Lathen Quartz built Lobster Cove Wildlife Rescue and Rehabilitation Center on enchanted McKay land. Wedding planning goes awry when the couple spends Thanksgiving with family in Colorado, a Maine snowstorm fills the center with injured wildlife, Lathen finds himself drawn into a covert military mission, and Pepper wants to cancel the wedding. Is she having second thoughts? Will the nosy McKay ghosts, Lathen’s werewolf pack, Pepper’s parents, and her best friend help or hinder the wedding and holiday plans?

Thanks for popping in. I really appreciate it. Next week, July 29, can you believe it? Anyway topic is stuff on my bucket list. What fun!
