The September 19th issue of Entertainment Weekly (Hugh Laurie on the cover) introduced an interesting new and (I think) semi-regular recommendation section by Karen Valby within book review section. Sees she’s going to talk about “froth” novels. She describes it this way:
This goes out to all the ladies out there who [...]

Robin wrote a fabulous review for TO ALL A GOOD NIGHT on her blog. She says:
Passion sizzles in all three stories, and each one is so captivating you’ll want to read the book in one sitting. You’ll want the heroines as friends and the the heroes as, well, whatever you want them to be. [...]

I’m not a huge fan of Brad Meltzer’s books, but I thought this was pretty clever. When his new book, the book he always wanted to write - BOOK OF LIES - got bad reviews, Meltzer did this video using members of his kid’s soccer team, his grandma and her friends. The guy [...]

In this one-author anthology each [...]

-I also [...]

In one of the coolest things ever, RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW got a review mention in the Chicago Tribune this weekend. The Chicago Tribune!! Danielle was nice enough to write and tell me. I squealed with joy. Lucky for Danielle, she was not here to hear me.

Alyssa (from Alyssa’s Book Blog) reviewed RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW and gave it 4.5 stars (out of a possible 5). She said lovely things, so I adore her. Actually, I pretty much adored her before this because she strikes me as a strong supporter of romance novelists, but now I just adore her [...]
