REVIEW: Three Nights of Sin by Anne Mallory

By Jane • Apr 25th, 2008 • Category: C Reviews Category, C+ Reviews, Reviews

Dear Ms. Mallory:
I’ve pledged to myself to try and be more diverse in my reading because I do have the luxury of choosing among a number of books without financial risk. This is my first book from you and while I had several issues, I like the voice and would try you again.

REVIEW: Night Life by Caitlin Kittredge

By Jia • Mar 6th, 2008 • Category: B Reviews Category, B- Reviews, Reviews

Dear Ms. Kittredge,
I was introduced to your writing by your short story, “Newlydeads”, in My Big Fat Supernatural Honeymoon. While that story didn’t work as well for me as I’d hoped, I still looked forward to your first novel. Sometimes short stories aren’t the best indicators of good novelists and since Night Life was set [...]

Dear Ms. Roberts
I feel a bit awkward writing this review because I know that you read the blog on occassion. I felt like I was on a Nora Roberts high the last three books. Angels Fall, Innocent in Death, and High Noon were all either keepers or close to keepers so I was [...]



REVIEW: Bad Girl by Michele Jaffe

By Jane • Nov 15th, 2006 • Category: A Review Category, A Reviews, Reviews

Dear Ms. Jaffe:
I feel for you. I really do. You really, really must have made someone angry in the art and title department. Why else would they saddle your outstanding contemporary romance suspense book with the cutesy cover and an even worse title? I imagine that those readers looking for a [...]



REVIEW: Carnal Innocence by Nora Roberts

By Jane • Nov 13th, 2006 • Category: A Review Category, A- Reviews, Reviews

Dear Ms. Roberts:
If I were to rate my favorite books by my favorite authors, this would probably qualify. It’s full of classic Nora Roberts features: three dimensional characters, rich family relationships (albeit dysfunctional), and two believable individuals coming together to give each other comfort and love. Your books aren’t about the big and grand [...]
