Stephanie Kemler is a creator of magical menace, purveyor of alchemical prose, and the author of Bloodborn, Bloodmad, and The Year of Sin and Smoke. She writes stories that feed on the veins of tormented souls and pierce into the dark recesses of known and unknown worlds. Stephanie completed her degree in history and creative writing at Case Western Reserve University and has spent most of her professional career teaching language, theology, and history. When she’s not exploring graveyards and reading in fairytale forests, she resides with her family near a haunted Gilded Age mansion in Philadelphia.

Gillian Dowell is on page 251 of 673 of Sunshine and Bullets: And that’s a wrap on book 1 out of 3.

I didn’t expect a re-read to be my first read of the year, but it felt so right to pick up this book—a favorite, the omnibus gifted to me by one of my favorite people in the world.

It took me only a little over a day to read book 1. These characters, this story, all these memories… I couldn’t feel more at home right now. This is where I’m meant to be.

Everything I expected. Everything I wanted. Feels like I’m late to the party of fin de siecle romance. And a GIRL PHOTOGRAPHER?!? I was hooked. I now want to read everything in this author’s back catalog. Great way to end my year in books.
