The Secret of Hunter's Bog by Ally Blue Blog Tour
Hi y’all! I’m Ally Blue. Welcome to my blog tour for my newest book, The Secret of Hunter’s Bog. Thank you for stopping by. Be sure to comment on this post, or any of the posts on the tour, for a chance to win a full set of my Mojo Mysteries series—Demon Dog, A Ghost Most Elusive, and Myth Adventures—in the winner’s choice of electronic format. Read on and enjoy!
Those who know me know that I like to listen to music while I write. Sometimes I use one of the pre-fab “radio” playlists on iTunes or Google Play. Often I make my own playlist specific to the book. In the case of The Secret of Hunter’s Bog, I found myself using the playlist I’d already made for listening to on the beach, or while reading on the porch during the summer (fittingly called my Summertime list, wow I’m creative). It seemed to fit. The book is set during the spring, not the summer, but the “feel” of this playlist seemed to fit the mood of the book.
As always, a few bands and musicians—like Patrick Wolf, Perfume Genius, and Radiohead—pop up on my playlist multiple times. Therefore, I’ve edited it a bit, so that nobody shows up more than once. That way, you get a feel for what’s on there without getting swamped by the whole thing, ha. With that in mind, here’s a snippet of what I mostly listened to while writing The Secret of Hunter’s Bog:
Jambalaya — Hank Williams
Drops of Jupiter — Train
Peach Trees — Rufus Wainwright
(I Never Promised You A) Rose Garden — Lynn Anderson
You Call Me A Bitch Like It’s A Bad Thing — Halestorm
Don’t Know Why — Norah Jones
John the Fisherman — Primus
Zebra — Beach House
I Walk The Line — Johnny Cash
Lands End — Patrick Wolf
Rain City — Turin Brakes
Ice Cream Truck — Cazwell
Five Years — Brian Molko
Hey — Elvis Perkins in Dearland
Fireflies — Owl City
Year of the Cat — Al Stewart
Dreamboat Annie — Heart
Like Spinning Plates — Radiohead
I love this list, because it’s a mix of fun, thoughtful, uplifting, nostalgic, even sad occasionally. It runs the gamut of emotions, much like the book itself. In fact, now that I think about it, maybe that’s why I like listening to music while I write: because the way I look at it, the whole purpose of music is to make you feel something. And isn’t that why we read romance as well?
To my host here on the blog, thank you so much for letting me be here today. And special thanks to the readers who stop by. I appreciate you letting me share my thoughts with you!
About The Secret of Hunter’s Bog
For Koichi McNab, the shop he and his twin sister Kimmy are opening in Hunter’s Bog Mall is a fresh start after their old one burned down. A way to move on. Especially when he meets the hunky owner of the luxury camping goods store next door. Koichi’s never been an outdoorsy guy, but Will Hood just might change his mind.
Will came to Southern Alabama to establish his own life away from his big, intrusive family—and in hopes of finding Anthony, the lover who vanished two years ago. But meeting Koichi throws everything off-kilter. Anthony was a long time ago. Koichi’s right here, smart and funny and cute, and Will wants him.
As Koichi and Will become friends, then lovers, Will’s past and Koichi’s present tangle into a dangerous knot that brings them face-to-face with secrets, theft, treachery . . . maybe even murder. With their lives on the line, their only way to safety is together.
About Ally Blue
Ally Blue is acknowledged by the world at large (or at least by her heroes, who tend to suffer a lot) as the Popess of Gay Angst.
She has a great big suggestively-shaped hat and rides in a bullet-proof Plexiglas bubble in Christmas parades. Her harem of manwhores does double duty as bodyguards and inspirational entertainment. Her favorite band is Radiohead, her favorite color is lime green and her favorite way to waste a perfectly good Saturday is to watch all three extended version LOTR movies in a row.
Her ultimate dream is to one day ditch the evil day job and support the family on manlove alone. She is not a hippie or a brain surgeon, no matter what her kids’ friends say.

In the stacks
So many books, not enough time. Y’all should see my TBR. It’s insane. Nevertheless, there are so many I want to read.
Here are some I have at the top of my list.
Sebring by Kristen Ashley
Nick Sebring has issues. Born feeling like an outsider in his own family, growing up under the shadow of a brother who could do anything, Nick isn’t that great of a guy. But when this culminates with Nick…
