Let’s Talk Ebook Tech

JaneEbooksebook technology25 Comments

We know. Everyone is blogging about ebooks these days but no one is really talking about the one important thing: the e book reader. Because truly,if you are tied to your laptop, the ebook thing ain’t ever taking off. So let’s talk technology. Ebook technology. What do you need? What ... more >

REVIEW: Master of Wolves by Angela Knight

JaneBook Reviews / D Reviews2 Comments

Dear Ms. Knight: I am sorry to say that I think we are no longer compatible. It’s not you, it’s me. Your mageverse alternative urban fantasy seems less like a cohesive attempt at world building and more like a magentic word set gone horribly wrong. So many things in your ... more >

REVIEW: Blood Moon Over Britain by Morag McKendrick Pippin

JayneB Reviews Category / Book ReviewsHistorical Romances / World War II2 Comments

Dear. Mrs Pippin, I enjoyed your first novel, Blood Moon Over Bengal last year and have been looking forward to what you’d write about next. I’m glad to say this one is just as good if not better. I think the war time setting is great and well done. You ... more >

REVIEW: Who’s Been Sleeping In My Bed by Gemma Bruce

JaneB- Reviews / Book Reviews / C Reviews / D Reviews7 Comments

Dear Ms. Bruce: I have kind of ranted on about anthologies before. Nicole Camden is the gold standard for me in terms of romance anthologies. Your first story comes close but the rest of the book kind of peters out. The anthologies tell the individual stories of three debutantes who ... more >

REVIEW: Beloved Stranger by Patricia Potter

JayneB Reviews Category / Book ReviewsHistorical Romances / Scotland4 Comments

Dear. Ms Potter, I applaud anyone these days willing to write a historical romance novel that’s NOT a Regency. So, here’s lots of applause for you. And more applause for writing a good novel with characters I cared about while you’re at it. It’s not every day that I find ... more >

REVIEW: Chunkybuttfunky by Dakota Cassidy

JaneC Reviews4 Comments

Dear Ms. Cassidy: When I came across your book the other night I was dumbfounded and then, strangely enough, curious. What could this book, with its shockingly funny title, possibly be about? I want to harangue you about your title choice but ultimately, the shock tactic worked on me so ... more >

REVIEW: The Wishing Tree by Catherine Snodgrass

JayneC ReviewsAmerican historical / Historical Romances / western2 Comments

Dear Ms Snodgrass, I loved the excerpt for The Wishing Tree. And I’m a sucker for a good marriage of convenience and was still in the mood for a good Western. Enough that I bought the book soon after reading it. I’m still debating with myself if this was a ... more >

REVIEW: Penalty Box by Deirdre Martin

JaneB Reviews Category / B+ Reviews / Book ReviewsDeirdre-Martin / hockey / New-York-Blades / sports romance1 Comments

Dear Ms. Martin: You are a very uneven author for me. I loved your debut book, Body Check. Moderately disliked the second book, Fair Play, and did not finish the third, Total Rush. I honestly had written you off after Total Rush and wasn’t going to buy another book by ... more >

My Hero by Marianna Jameson
April 21, 2006

REVIEW: My Hero by Marianna Jameson

JaneB ReviewsContemporary3 Comments

Dear Ms. Jameson: I am always looking for true contemporary romances and what I mean by that is character driven romances without suspense. It is hard to find this type of book these days. Your book, My Hero, is exactly that type of romance. What is more, it features great, ... more >

Just Listen Sarah Dessen
April 21, 2006

REVIEW: Just Listen by Sarah Dessen

JaneB ReviewsYoung-Adult7 Comments

Dear Ms. Dessen: If I were to ever write a book, I would want to write like you. Your stories of young womanhood and the pain of growing up are rendered with small strokes, small details, but with broad feeling. I can honestly say that there isn’t a book of ... more >
