The only e-book my library has by a Katie Porter is “Snap”, which seems to be book 2 of a fiction trilogy. Is it the same Katie Porter?

I don't think so. At least, there's no mention of it on her Wikipedia page.
By contrast, Stacey Abrams' page lists her writing career both under her own name and as Selena Montgomery. Which is how I just learned that her thriller While Justice Sleeps is being produced as a television series.

Let the other societies take the skilled, the hopefuls, the ambitious, the self-confident. He’d take the whining resentful ones, the ones with a bellyful of spite and bile, the ones who knew they could make it big if only they’d been given the chance. Give him the ones in which the floods of venom and vindictiveness were dammed up behind thin walls of ineptitude and lowgrade paranoia.

I think Molly Harper came up with titles like that earlier, "How to Flirt with a Naked Werewolf" I usually like Harper's books, but the most recent series I read got a bit repetitive after a while. That was the "Mystic Bayou" series. The "Naked Werewolf" series was enjoyable, though.Frelga wrote: ↑Fri Mar 24, 2023 3:26 pm Today I learned that What Do You Say to a Naked Elf? is a real book title, written by Cheryl Sterling. The description doesn't sound half bad, actually.

I highly recommend a series I've just begun by Alan Bradley. The protagonist is Flavia de Luce, 11 years old, a precocious aspiring chemist who lives in a rambling old pile with two obnoxious older sisters and a father who is still grieving his wife 10 years after her mystetious death.
In the first book of this series, The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie, murder happens and Flavia turns her prodigious intellect to solving it.
I enjoyed it enormously!
