BOOK REVIEWS

I read around 80 books a year and review my favorites (and my almost-favorites) here — heavy on romantasy and romance book reviews, with the occasional thriller or craft book. Every rating is out of 5 stars, every review is spoiler-free, and I always tell you the truth. Click any cover to read the full review.

Authors & publicists: request a review

I accept ARCs and review copies for consideration on this blog — my reviews rank on Google for the books I cover — and I interview authors on Make Writing Your Job and Sutoscience. Sweet spots: romantasy and romance, memoir, and nonfiction for writers and creatives. I only review books I can be honest about — my press kit has audience stats and everything else a publicist needs.
