I wanted to just throw out a quick blurb about why I am reviewing books. I have written five novels to date and have yet to publish one of them. I am close to finishing my second novel which I will probably self-publish.
In the course of the five years that I have written these novels I have gone to numerous workshops and book readings as well as reading and finding other author advice online. One piece of advice that pops up often, is if you want to write you should read. Some say, you should even read bad books, so you know what to avoid. But something that really sticks with me is that someone said, you should help out other authors and one way to do this is to read and review their books. Even if you don't give them a good review, it helps to make them more legitimate on Amazon if they have more reviews. A bad review means that people besides their good friends have read the book.
So it is my intention to try and read and review as many books as I can. I will write reviews on books that I want to read and that I really enjoy. I will also write reviews on books that I might not have liked so much, but I am trying to give the author feedback. I have been getting many books for free on Amazon as well as Net Galley, so you will see quite a few books from there being reviewed. Many of these being romance novels. While I don't normally read a lot of romance novels, I do read them on occasion and I do enjoy a well written one. Unfortunately, they are not all well written, which is probably why a lot of them are free.
So bear with me if you are reading my reviews. Skip the ones you aren't interested in, but I'll let you know if I find a good one!
