My Year in Books – So Far…
I am one of those people who’s always playing catch-up in my reading. Every year, I frantically use the DIK Power Search and cram as many books in as I can before choosing my top reads at the end of it.

September TBR Challenge – Anyone for Historicals?
Some months the TBR Challenge leaves us scratching our heads and digging deep into our overflowing TBR piles to find a book that fits the prompt. However, this month is historical romance month, and both of us found ourselves with an embarrassment of riches from which to choose. While we both ended up with European…

Teas and Books: A Perfect Match
I came to tea early on in life after watching everyone around me drinking it for every occasion. Rise and shine: tea. Up too late in the night: tea.
Romancelandia Pet Peeves
A few weeks ago, I selected a book to review that admitted it was a novella, but pretended it was a stand-alone. When I opened it up, the book was fifty seven pages and was about the farthest thing from a stand-alone I could think of. Instead, I think it’s a few chapters the author…
The Problems of Persuasion: A Guest Post and a Giveaway by Jenny Holiday
Once upon a time there was a romance novelist who blithely signed up to retell Jane Austen’s Persuasion. Once upon a time there was a romance novelist who was an idiot. That would be me. I’m kidding – kind of.

Coming Soon… September 2018
We’re back with our regular Coming Soon feature, in which AAR staffers take a look ahead at which books we’re most looking forward to reading in September. The last quarter of the year (and where did the rest of it go?!) usually sees masses of new releases flooding the bookstores, and we’re here to help…
August 2018 TBR Challenge – Time for Serials
For this month’s TBR Challenge prompt, we were called upon to read books that are part of a series. This month, we both went with historical romances. Caz chose book 1 of a series while Lynn went with book 3 of a trilogy (don’t worry – it stands alone well!). Both were good reads, and…
