Welcome!


Hello,
     I am CJ and I am an avid reader. I will pretty much read anything, but always return to my ultimate escape…Historical Romance. I know that most of you think of 80′s bodice rippers with Fabio covers whenever romance novels are mentioned, but there are actually a lot of good stories, phenomenal writing and smart dialogue that has me enthralled for days following finishing a book. That said, there is also a fair amount of overdone plotlines, stupid heroines and unlikable heroes that are sold daily to unsuspecting readers who really just want a book that will take them away for a few minutes while waiting to pick up their children from band practice.
So, after spending the last week going through my bookshelf and adding my 500+ books to GoodReads, I have decided that I may be able to help a few prospective book buyers with a review or two before they plunk down $7 for a book that may end up, at best, going out the door to Goodwill or, at worst, in the trash.
Since I do often read other things than romance, I wouldn’t call this a romance-review only blog. And I don’t intend to review all my books. I do have a life after all. Anyhow…Welcome to my Bookshelf!
