Nothing much of interest in this week’s list. There were several books released on December 26, 2007, however, I think the holidays may have suppressed natural book sales.

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!

I’m beginning to hunger for one of those long dense lists that you used to put out.
I am pleased to see Libba Bray’s book right up there!
Wow, terrific ranking for Libba Bray. I’m surprised she beat Julie Garwood!
