BEEP BEEP BEEP WE HAVE A COVER
Cover of the book IGNORE ALL PREVIOUS INSTRUCTIONS by Ada Hoffmann. The title is written in bright, colorful block letters and the author's name is below it in a handwriting-like font. A tiny robot peeks out from the "S" at the end of "Instructions." Below the title and author there is a cartoon depiction of the planet Jupiter, against a starry background, with a cartoon spaceship flying up from it. There is a small Jolly Roger flag on the spaceship.

I'd say "ignore this cover art," but apparently Netgalley could not ignore it - IGNORE ALL PREVIOUS INSTRUCTIONS will be featured on their main page as part of their Cover Love feature.

Check it out here: www.netgalley.com

Just got off the Zoom call with my narrator for the audio edition of IGNORE ALL PREVIOUS INSTRUCTIONS and omg. You are going to love this audiobook so much. We went through ideas for voices for all of the characters and Nancy's robot voice had me in stitches laughing. She's so good.

The news story about Rowan would be a crime story - local shady trans man gets busted for smuggling or for a heist he was trying to do.

The news story about Kelli would be, "Beloved television writer turns out to be secretly Problembatic"
