If you like Mignola's collaborative works with Christopher Golden, like Baltimore and Joe Golem and the Drowning City, check out Grim Death and Bill. Mignola, famous for creating Hellboy, among other things, teams up with my pal Tom Sniegoski for an illustrated pulp novel about two unusual heroes fighting evil and seeking justice. Three February titles are attracting my attention: the illustrated novel Grim Death and Bill the Electrocuted Criminal by Mike Mignola and Tom Sniegoski, the anthology Here We Are: Feminism for the Real World by Kelly Jensen, and the novel We Are Okay by Nina LaCour. "I really hope she finds her," I said to myself when I read the book summary I am also simultaneously steeling myself for something akin to As Simple as Snow by Gregory Galloway, just in case. Snowbirds by Crissa-Jean Chappell, coming out first thing in January, follows Lucy as she searches for her best friend Alice, who has disappeared in the middle of Rumspringa. I have always been fascinated by Rumspringa, a rite of passage for teens in some Amish communities. Here are seven titles coming out in 2017 that may appeal to this blog's readers - and to this blog's writer, too! :) 2017 is merely days away, and if you recently received gift cards to your favorite local bookstores or online bookshops, you may be anxious to redeem them.
