Dear Ms. Egan: Based on the entirely unoriginal cover and blurb, I had pretty low expectations of this book because of my aversion to historical set paranormals so I was a bit surprised that I did enjoy parts of it. I liked the tone and voice in the book but felt somewhat unmoored during much(…)

Dear Ms. Griffin, I’ve mentioned before that the reason I don’t read much romantic suspense is that usually one aspect or the other gets shortchanged and I end up disappointed. Your books, however, have usually been the exception. A few little things in them might niggle but I’ve come to expect that in order to(…)

Dear Ms. Griffin: I picked up one book of yours after reading a slew of reviews by Jayne. Jayne’s not a romantic suspense reader and the fact that she liked several of your books was enough to push me to buy one of your books. One book was all it took to get me hooked.(…)

Dear Ms. Gerard: I liked the poetic nature of the title given that this book kind of closes the door on the Black Ops, Inc., or BOIs, crew. Joe Green is indeed the last man standing of the group. The other living members have all fallen in love and had a happy ending. Joe’s done(…)

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(…)

Dear Ms. Glass, Fictional diversity is a favorite topic here at Dear Author, and a personal focus of mine. I’m very resistant to the idea that readers don’t want to see more diverse representation in their books because I’m a reader and I very much want to see that. So I was very happy to(…)

Sony sent me the Sony Reader Pocket and Touch Editions for review. I’ve had the devices for little over three weeks and they will be winging their way to another reviewer tomorrow. My conclusion after spending some time with these new devices is that the Pocket Edition would be a recommended buy if it were(…)

Dear Ms. Griffin, I don’t think readers need to worry that “Untraceable” is a sequel to your last book “Whisper of Warning.” There’s enough background information about the characters to bring newbies up to speed but – and I’m really impressed by this – they can still go back and read that book without fear(…)

A notice at Lori Devoti’s blog indicates that Juno Press is to become an imprint of Pocket books. The post says that the existing acquiring Juno editor, Paula Guran, will be working with Jennifer Heddle of Pocket. I’m not sure whether this is merely a distribution deal like the one Pocket has with Ellora’s Cave(…)
