REVIEW: Welcome to the Real World by Carole Matthews

JayneBook Reviews / D ReviewsComments Off on REVIEW: Welcome to the Real World by Carole Matthews

Dear Ms. Matthews, The irony of your book is that it’s titled “Welcome to the Real World.” I know it’s fiction. I know it’s Chick Lit but you pile so many unbelievable events on top of so many others that I ended up not able to believe any of it. ... more >

REVIEW: More to Life Than This by Carole Matthews

JaneBook Reviews / D Reviews4 Comments

Dear Ms. Matthews: Marriage in trouble is a favorite theme of mine. I am always interested in seeing how an author can bring a couple back from the brink of disaster without irreparable harm. But marriage in crises require a delicate balance, particularly if one character is going to embark ... more >

REVIEW: Rules of Marriage by Wilma Counts

JaneBook Reviews / D Reviews / EbooksGothic / New-Orleans / widow1 Comments

Dear Ms. St. Giles: You received alot of good buzz for your second book. Perhaps my disappointment was a case of heightened reader expectations, but HDD was just a big meh for me. Toward the end, I was forcing myself to turn the page. Your book is full of stock ... more >

REVIEW: The Courtship by Lynna Banning

JayneBook Reviews / D Reviews19th century / American historical / Historical / Western Romance2 Comments

Dear Ms. Banning, I’ve never read any of your books and I don’t think I’ll try another. It’s too bad that this one has such a wonderful cover (though it has nothing to do with anything that happened in the book). The inside stepback does look as if he’s examining ... more >
