Jane is a long time romance reader whose passion is, you guessed it, reading. Jane also does not like to talk about herself in the third person, but apparently this is the way that this biography thing works (although in a true biography, someone else would be writing this blurb). Anyway, currently Jane loves urban fantasy authors Patricia Briggs and Ilona Andrews. She's really excited about this year's crop of historicals including Joanna Bourne's The Spymaster's Lady and Sherry Thomas' Private Arrangements and the upcoming Loretta Chase Her Scandalous Ways.
She's looking for a good contemporary author. Email her with a recommendation!

Wow. Really dead.
I went into the B.Dalton at the train station Tuesday looking for something to read on the trip home. The only book that was vaguely interesting was a remaindered copy of Cody Diablo’s memoir about stripperdome; she’s getting a lot of press about Juno. But no, not even that made the cut.
Seems like I’m leaving the bookstore without making a purchase a lot lately. Not even discounts or coupons are enough to make me want to buy what’s out on the shelves.
