Dear Ms. Lamb: Why hello there. I had no idea you wrote such fun and entertaining characters. I admit that I was initially put off by the series because it featured heroines with psychic abilities. While Now You See Her and Dream Man by Linda Howard are two of my favorite contemporaries, psychic characters have(…)

Dear Ms. Weir: I have been slowly working my way through your backlist titles, so when I came across the re-released, reasonably-priced digital edition of Bad Karma at the Kindle store, it shot to the top of my TBR list. I have to admit that I’m not the biggest fan of the “psychic heroine” trope,(…)

Dear Ms. Harrington, I admit I hadn’t heard at all about either you or your debut novel until I saw it mentioned during the Scholastic preview webcast a few months ago. I made a mental note to request Clarity, but I’m afraid it fell through the cracks. Thankfully, Scholastic sent along a copy anyway and(…)

Dear Ms. Kane, I am not a big horror fan. I don’t find movies like Paranormal Activity, Resident Evil or 28 Days Later enjoyable. And for clarifcation purposes, I love Blade Runner, 12 Monkeys and Serenity. I nearly got thrown out of business class once when I kept yelping aloud during Signs and I was(…)

Dear Ms. Pappano, One thing I’m trying to do this year is expand my reading horizons. I usually stay within my favorite genres of fantasy, paranormals, and young adult, but sometimes you need variety to keep things interesting. So when I was glancing through the eHarlequin website earlier this month, your book caught my eye(…)

Dear Ms. Krentz: I think that my favorite books of yours are the not the paranormals but since you’ve decided to go all paranormal all the time, I’ve just got to suck it up or stop reading you. So am sucking it up because apparently you are a drug I just can’t quit. The(…)

Dear Ms. Lackey, When I was a young teenager, I devoured your Valdemar novels. They were my favorite books and I was a very loyal reader. I eventually outgrew them, as it sometimes happens, but I still look back on them fondly. You write a special brand of animal companion fantasy about ostracized, misunderstood teens(…)

Dear Ms. Hendee, While I haven’t read them, I’m more familiar with your traditional fantasy books co-written with your husband. I had no idea you were even working on an urban fantasy novel until I opened up a package Jane sent me and found this book’s cover staring up at me. I’ve said in the(…)

Dear Ms. Holquist: I almost didn’t write this review because it was such a struggle for me to pinpoint why I didn’t respond well to it given that I liked The Sexiest Man Alive so much. Ultimately, I think I failed to connect to the hero and heroine in a "it’s not you, it’s me"(…)

Dear Ms. Castle: >I haven’t read all your Harmony stories but I admit to enjoying them quite a bit even though, at times, I have felt like they were futuristic lite. Maybe I was just in a good mood when I read this one, but the story worked for me this time. Sierra McIntyre, daughter(…)

Dear Ms. Hooper: This is the 10th entry in the Special Crimes Unit led by FBI Special Agent Noah Bishop. For the uninitiated, Bishop is an individual with a great psychic gift who has made a career of collecting other gifted people to join the fight against crime and evil perpetrating crime. There is a(…)

Dear Ms. Howard: I know that you won’t be reading this letter as you are not an onliner, but let me tell you about my love for Dream Man. To some, this is a terrible book filled with a terrible betrayal by the hero. To me, it shows the extent I will overlook things when(…)

Dear Ms. McCarthy: Jay, the poor misguided fool who thought she wanted to be a lawyer and now who cannot read for pleasure because all she does is read opinions, really enjoys your books and has been trying to get me to read them for months now. You Don’t Know Jack was an ebook and(…)
