Please make a sliver of room on your bookshelf for this short countrified novel by yours truly!
Cemetery Gates Media@CemeteryGatesM17 Nov 2024
Excited to announce we've signed @IvyGri's debut novel "Ruby, Opal, and Phew" for our Debut Novel Series. Scheduled for release in March 2025, Ivy Grimes has conjured a fantastic, supernatural Southern Gothic story that will fit well in this series that has previously seen excellent works from Christi Nogle (Beulah) and Stephanie Parent (The Briars).
