I am a freelance entertainment journalist and have been reviewing books for the past 15 years. I love just about any kind of book with the exception of horror (blood and guts...shudder!) and vampires (sorry,I know they're popular). I adore cozy mysteries, historical romance, women's lit, chick lit...you name it!
