About January Janes

January likes a little bit of everything. She's partial to unique paranormals, erotic romances, contemporary, and YA. She has a fondness for novellas and trying self-published works, though more of those are misses than hits. She still refuses to read anything that smells like literary fiction. January also changes this bio on a regular basis depending on her reading mood.

If anyone can get me back on the paranormal wagon, it’s you. And(…)

Note: January is a new reviewer at DA. She will be providing reviews at least once a month if not more often. Dear Ellen Connor (aka Ann Aguirre and Carrie Lofty): I wanted to love this book. I really did. You are both well known names in the industry, and both of you have high(…)
