Hellbent Cherie Priest
September 27, 2011

REVIEW: Hellbent by Cherie Priest

JiaC+ ReviewsAtlanta / Bantam Dell Ballantine / OCD / San-Francisco / Seattle / thief / Urban-Fantasy / vampires4 Comments

Dear Ms. Priest, I was first introduced to your work with Four and Twenty Blackbirds, your Southern gothic debut. I remember liking it but for some reason, I never picked up another book by you again. It happens. So when I saw this book pop up on NetGalley, I glanced ... more >

Money Honey by Susan Sey

REVIEW: Money Honey by Susan Sey

JaneB- ReviewsDebut Books / law-enforcement / thief4 Comments

Dear Ms. Sey: I admit that your book intrigued me because the cover was akin to Julie James’ books and after I read the first chapter, I emailed a friend to let her know that I was hooked and had she read it too (the answer was negative).   This story ... more >

REVIEW: A Conspiracy of Kings by Megan Whalen Turner

JanineA Review Category / A- Reviews / Book ReviewsFantasy Romance / gods / Mediterranean setting / Megan-Whalen-Turner / myth / Older-Woman-/-Younger-Man / romantic / thief / Young-Adult20 Comments

Dear Ms. Turner, Somehow, I've become a huge fan of your YA series. My love for the books has taken me by surprise because the first book, The Thief, was slow to engage me and aimed at a younger audience than the later books. It wasn't until the second half ... more >

REVIEW: The King of Attolia by Megan Whalen Turner

JanineA Review Category / A Reviews / A- Reviews / Book ReviewsFantasy Romance / gods / Mediterranean setting / Megan-Whalen-Turner / myth / romantic / thief / Young-Adult53 Comments

Dear Ms. Turner, Last month Jane, Jia and I embarked on Keishon’s TBR challenge 2009. This time Keishon’s suggestion is a book that AAR has rated as a DIK (Desert Isle Keeper). While scanning through AAR’s list of DIK reviews, I was excited to unearth Rike’s review of your Thief ... more >

Passion and Pleasure in London Melody Thomas
August 27, 2008

REVIEW: Passion and Pleasure in London by Melody Thomas

JanetB- ReviewsAvon / thief6 Comments

Dear Ms. Thomas: Your books remind me acutely how much of the relationship between reader and book depends on some chemical, perhaps even alchemical, reaction, indescribable yet potent in its effect. They also remind me of how possible it is, even now, for a compelling storyteller to make stock characters ... more >

REVIEW: After the Kiss by Suzanne Enoch

JaneA Review Category / A- Reviewsart thief / Commoner Aristocracy pairing / Regency England / Suzanne-Enoch / thief16 Comments

Dear Ms. Enoch: Like commenter Corrine, I had admittedly had some issues with the past few historicals. I had enjoyed England’s Perfect Hero so much (as Corrine says “hands-down favorite SE title”) that it may have affected my opinion of the books that followed. Needless to say, I adored After ... more >
