Dear Ms. Gray, When I read the blurb for Wars of the Heart, I was utterly confused. Let me explain; or better yet let me sum up the blurb, which goes something like this: Katherine Morgan is a diplomat from Earth, she thinks that someone is out to destroy Earth’s Ozone Shield, and goes to [...]

Dear Ms. Bardsley, About 1/3 of the way through this book, I realized I’d read another in the Broken Heart series. I think it was Cross Your Heart; I remember something about a ghost and some sort of evil. That was the only book I’d ever picked up in the series, and it was amusing [...]

There are possibly spoilers in this review. I have done my level best to avoid them. Apologies in advance. Dear Ms. Miller, I decided to pick up your book because it sounded cool and slightly different from other things in the Vampire/Shifter paranormal genre and I’m a sucker for cool and different. Slade is a [...]

Intervamption by Kristin Miller. This book is the first in the Vampires of Crimson Bay series and it’s a hot mess that I am going to expand upon in a longer review. Dylan runs ReVamp which is both a clinic and supply center for the Crimson Bay vampires and she’s dedicated her life to figuring out [...]

Dear Ms. Harrison, As a Paranormal reader and reviewer, the concept of a series is both the blessing and bane of my existence. Ever heard of a stand-alone Paranormal? I’ve gotta look around and see if they actually occur…but back to the matter at hand. After the first book, it’s crystal clear as to whether [...]

Dear Ms. Cooper, Anyone who follows you, me or Jane on twitter or who read this probably caught the tempest in a teacup over the disappearing book. For those who haven’t a clue as to what I’m referring: Jane was looking all over for Blood of the Wicked, and realized that she probably sent it [...]

Dear Ms. Harrison, I went back and forth with Jane as to whether to write a review of Dragon Bound. Jane had written a bit about it already for the contest and it is one of her May Recommended Reads, but I felt that the book deserved a second look, so here I am. Be [...]

Dear Ms. Archer, My track record with space sci-fi romance (SSFR) has been terrible of late. There are moments when I wonder why I continually punish myself with middling (at best) SSFR when there is so much incredible romance reading available out there. But I do it because I’m hunting for that perfect mix of [...]

Dear Ms. Massey, I have totally procrastinated about writing this review, which will probably give you a hint regarding my reaction to Once Upon a Time in Space. My hesitation is due to this coming on the heels of my less than charitable review about another group of space pirates, but since honesty has always [...]

Dear Ms. Armintrout, By now, one would think that I've had enough of vampires, paranormals and the strange and unusual. One would be way off base. I don't think that will ever happen. It's like assuming a lover of historicals will eventually tire of the rakes, rogues and scoundrels. Sure, every once in a while [...]

WARNING: SPOILERS ARE HAPPENING BELOW. APOLOGIES IN ADVANCE Dear Ms. White, Jane counts And Falling, Fly among her favorite books for 2010 and it just missed making my list by an eyelash. The book was gorgeously written, thought provoking, sensuous and exciting. All of this, and it really engaged me by making me question what [...]

Dear Ms. Myles, You are another author whose books have caught my eye, but I haven’t managed to pick up. I’ve realized I need a lot more free time for loafing on the couch and reading. Does anyone want to give me that as a belated Hannukah or surprise Christmas gift please? Anyways, I’ve seen [...]

PLEASE NOTE: SPOILERS AHEAD! Some of the spoilers refer to the first book in the series. If you prefer to avoid spoilers, you might not want to read this review until after you have read the book(s). Dear Ms. Crane, Between not having realized that Janine Ballard wrote a fabulous review of Mind Games, and [...]

Dear Ms. Singh, I have a terrible time keeping up with series, even those I’m heavily invested in. Off the top of my head, I can think of half a dozen series by different authors that I initially loved but can’t find the energy or wherewithal to continue reading. That I’m anxious for the 10th [...]

Because this book is so awesome, it needs more than one review. Dear Ms. Brook, I’ve greatly enjoyed many of your books, yet for some reason I’ve never felt compelled to review one until now. While that may be perceived as rude, it turns out that other reviewers at DA (or other blogs) have gotten [...]
