What can you expect from a Kim Strickland book?

Here are some reviews for her first novel "Wish Club"...

"Wish Club is a zany and witty story that you are sure to love. Kim Strickland has developed her characters so well and they are so believable and charming and funny. I can find no faults with this novel. I am recommending it for our reading group. The story is funny, smart and so intriguing. This is a perfect book club read. I give it an outstanding 5 stars." - Terry South, Quality Book Reviews

"Hot Read for Summer" - Chicago Tribune

"City Plays Major Role in Bewitching First Novel by Airline Pilot" - Chicago Sun Times (feature article on Wish Club)

"Wonderful. Funny. Chilling. Everything a book should be." - Rick Kogan, WGN Radio. Listen to the Interview - WGN Sunday Papers with Rick Kogan.

"Strickland, who pilots a Boeing 767 for a living, gives her five passengers a naivety of witchcraft and strength of character that charms." - Publisher's Weekly

"A fast, fun beach read." - Sharon Broom, Armchair Interviews

Her second novel, and first for Eckhartz Press, is entitled "Down at the Golden Coin". It's guaranteed to make you think. Pre-order your copy today. The first one hundred orders will receive a thematically appropriate golden dollar coin (which may or may not feature the face of the one-month president William Henry Harrison).
