I'm really sad about this as Strange Chemistry was probably my favorite imprint. I have worked with them and read some of their books and most of them ended up at my favorite shelf. I have said this while reviewing one of SC books that they really published books according to my taste. It's not only books, but those amazing authors I worked with. But still I'm sure that I'll work with them again and like I told them Ja čitam, a ti? will always be open for them.
This is just my small tribute to those amazing books and authors. So thank you amazing people for your kindness and professionalism. Thank you also for sending me and approving me for all those ARCs and with you I learned so much about blogging.
Dear authors Kat Ross, Danielle L. Jansen, Amelie Howard, Eliza Crawe, Rosie Best, Ingrid Jonach and Cassandra Rose Clark thank you so much. I had that pleasure of working with you and I really hope to work with you again in the future. Don't give up as your books are the best pieces I have read. You have the true talent and it shows! Also to all those other authors I haven't had a chance to work with, I really hope we'll work together in the future.
Thank you all who worked on giving us the best books and organizing the best tours. You truly are amazing. But most of all thank you to Caroline and Jonathan - it was amazing to work with you and I know that our paths will cross again!
Best of luck to all of you!
Oh no! I hadn't heard this. I did really enjoy a lot of their books, this makes me sad.
OdgovoriIzbrišiYeah it's really sad :(
IzbrišiI read about this last week! I have to admit that I wasn't Strange Chemistry's biggest fan, and there are a lot of books published by them that I have yet to read, but I know that lots of people in the blogosphere loved them. And I'll always remember them as being gracious enough to send me a physical ARC of a book, even though I live all the way in Asia! I also enjoyed their fun newsletters, so it's sad that I won't be receiving anymore of those.
OdgovoriIzbrišiAnyway, I just know that those amazing authors you listed down will find other publishers who'll see the quality of their writing and publish their works, so wishing them all the best!
Yeah they have sent me few physical ARCs too and I was really surprised. But they published really great fantasy books. I'll miss that a lot.
IzbrišiIt's so sad that they are no longer doing a Strange Chemistry! They had some brilliant YA imprints and authors. So very unique from other publishers. Best of luck to all the authors in the future! :) Thanks for sharing, Tanja! :)
OdgovoriIzbrišiThank you, Emma :)
IzbrišiAw, this is an adorable post, lovely. I hope these authors get their mojo going with another publisher and get even bigger and better with their success! <3
OdgovoriIzbrišiI really hope so as they deserve it! Thanks, hon! <3
IzbrišiI haven't read anything from this imprint, but I want to read Stolen Songbird and The Assassin's Curse. That's so sad that they're shutting down :( I'll be buying quite a few Strange Chemistry books in the next few months.
OdgovoriIzbrišiI really hope you'll get to read them still. Both are amazing books. Thanks, Montana :)
IzbrišiThank you very much Tanja, for such kind words! You're very welcome, and thank you for everything you've done for Strange Chem. I really enjoyed working with you, and setting you up with all our authors and books. Very best wishes, Caroline
OdgovoriIzbrišiBest wishes to you too! I'm sure I'll see you around though ;)
IzbrišiThis is so sad! I read some really great Strange Chemistry book. I'll miss being part of the Chemistry Set! :(
OdgovoriIzbrišiWe all will :(
IzbrišiThis is such a bummer, they always had fantastic books, I always knew when they decided to publish something it was going to be super interesting. I hope their editors move to other houses because they have a good eye! :(
OdgovoriIzbrišiYes, I always requested them on NG without even reading a blurb. So yeah! :(
IzbrišiWow, what a bummer because Strange Chemistry had a really different offering which was received well by the readers! What a shame :( Thanks for sharing the news!
OdgovoriIzbrišiIt's really a shame. Thanks, Jeann :)
IzbrišiAw, such a lovely tribute, Tanja. I'm so sad that they are shuttering as well, I really admired what they were doing. :(
