REVIEW: Highland Champion by Hannah Howell

JayneB Reviews / Book ReviewsHistorical Romances / Scotland1 Comments

Dear. Ms. Howell, You wrote a really good story here but had to fling in so many dinnae, cannae, willnae, lassies that my head was spinning from all the faux Scots. DIALECT WARNING FOR READERS: If ye nae can stand reading every spoken exchange in Howell’s version of a Highland ... more >

REVIEW: What I Really Want to Do is Direct by Yvonne Collins and Sandy Rideout

JayneB Reviewschick-lit / Hollywood8 Comments

Dear Yvonne Collins and Sandy Rideout Who knew that a focus puller was so important to a movie? Not moi, I assure you. But now I do and I loved learning about it in “What I Really Want to Do is Direct.” Though told in 1st person (after all, it ... more >
