*Heather* Reviewer, Bookseller, Romance Reader

Outside of a dog, a book is man's best friend. Inside of a dog it's too dark to read. ~ Groucho Marx

About Me

There isn't a lot to say about me. I'm a bookworm, I love to read and spend most of my time doing so. I read a lot of Romance despite criticism from friends. :) I work at a bookstore as a bookseller/Romance Expert. If you would like to send promotional items to my store, send me an email. If I don't recognize you, I will be making sure you're legitimate before handing out my store address.

I'm also a reviewer for Romance Junkies. Check them out at http://www.romancejunkies.com . And as you may guess this means I review romance novels. So if you would like me to review your book please keep this in mind. If you write books that have nothing whatsoever to do with romance please don't be upset when I say "Thanks, but no thanks." I have an email account specifically for review requests. If you would like me to review your work you may email me at heather_reviews @ yahoo.com (remove spaces)
I'm an animal lover and a vegetarian. I'm a big fan of rats, I think they are horribly misunderstood. Check out my pic page and you'll find some of my favorite pictures of my dearly departed Edgar.

Television:

As far as t.v. goes I watch a lot of Cartoon Network, gotta love Adult Swim. I watch a lot of Animal Planet too. My favorite show is Charmed but I never actually catch any new episodes anymore, so I'm just buying the boxed sets. I can't believe I almost forgot about The Daily Show with Jon Stewart and The Colbert Report on Comedy Central.

Books:

I could go on and on here. As I said I love Romance books. Since I have so many authors that I love to recommend. I'm just going to list their names without typing explanations for each. Feel free to ask me about any of them. Also don't forget to check out my friends, there are lots of authors on there. Here's that list of names: Christine Feehan, Amanda Ashley, Maggie Shayne, Susan Sizmore, Lynsay Sands, Susan Krinard Allison Brennan, Lori Wilde, Robin D. Owens, Susan Kearney, Stephanie Laurens, Sabrina Jeffries, Julie Ann Long, Kimberly Logan, Michelle Pillow, Mandy M. Roth, Heather Grothaus, Beth Ciotta, Lora Leigh, Gena Showalter, Robin T. Popp, Kathryn Caskie, Stephanie Rowe, Deidre Knight, Evangeline Anderson...and many many more. I will add more names as I read more books. :)
