Hi Friends,
June sped by, my free time spent packing in as many New Jersey state parks as possible and powering through Ken Burns' The American Revolution. And yet somehow July sneaked up on me, hence this newsletter going out later in the day. As we're all ramping up to ring in America's 250th birthday, I'll keep things brief.
On Thursday, July 30th, I'll return to the Catsbury Park Book Club, this time to chat about STARDUST, the sequel to IRISH EYES and the second installment in my American Songbook series. The event is ticketed. If you're in or near the Jersey Shore, register here.
If you'd like me to visit your book club, either in-person or via Zoom, contact me here.
Next month, I'll head to the Emerald Isle for the Historical Novel Society Conference. This year's con will be held on the campus of Maynooth University in County Kildare. While I've been to Ireland before, this will be my first time exploring Dublin and Belfast. I cannot wait!
As a reminder, IRISH EYES is now available as an audiobook across platforms.
Hope C. Tarr, Author of the American Songbook Series: IRISH EYES and STARDUST.

Further to female lawyers in history, I binged all three seasons of "The Law According to Lydia Poët," a...
