REVIEW: Slave to Sensation by Nalini Singh

JayneB- Reviews / Book Reviewsbonded-mates / changeling / POC author / psy / Psy-Changeling Series / shapeshifters5 Comments

Dear Ms Singh, Perhaps the praise I’d already heard about your book colored my expectations. Maybe the larger than usual number of shapeshifting books I’ve read recently has filled me with ennui. While I liked much of “Slave to Sensation,” it didn’t wow me. Sascha Duncan is a member of ... more >

REVIEW: Snow Blind by PJ Tracy

JaneB+ Reviewslaw-enforcement5 Comments

Dear Ms. Riley, I spent my formative romance reading years devouring the “Angelique” series which begins in 17th century France at the court of the Sun King and have enjoyed movies using this time frame. So, when this book was mentioned at AAR after someone posted asking for books which ... more >

new moon
August 16, 2006

REVIEW: New Moon by Stephenie Meyer

JaneB- Reviews / Book ReviewsAmazon / shapeshifters / Young-Adult43 Comments

Dear Ms. Meyer: This was a greatly anticipated book. Twilight, the prequel, was my 2005 book of the year. New Moon, however delightful it was, seemed to throw all of the faults of Bella in sharp relief. You portrayed her, either intentionally or not, as a selfish user who seemed ... more >
