This is my reading blog. This blog is mirrored over at janicu @ LJ.com

I also have a lot of mini reviews over on paperback swap - a paragraph or two on books I've read, and those reviews are a more comprehensive list since 2006 of all the books I've read. That's over here. If you want to join PBS - I'd be happy if you used me as a referral. The same reviews are also on Goodreads. Check out my books on Goodreads here.

About this blog: Hi, I'm Janice and I like to read. This is my little corner of the internet. I like getting comments and discussing books, so if you've read a book and disagree or agree with my review, commenting would be awesome. I know everyone approaches the same book in their own way.

A word about advertising: Due to vox's advertising policy, you may see some ads at the bottom and tops of the page. That isn't my doing. However: the links to Amazon and B&N (some posts link to Indiebound) here are referral links. Clicking helps me feed the book addiction.

Where I get my books: Unless I specify that I got a book from a publisher or author, I got the book myself (bought, borrowed, won). I will always disclose if someone sent me the book to review it (and have done so as long as I've been blogging).

If you want to send a book to review: I really like reading urban fantasy, futuristics, and space operas, but I also read young adult, fantasy and some romance. I currently don't read self-published books/books from vanity presses. If you have something you think I would love, feel free to contact me. I will write an honest review.


My favorite books of 2008
Books I'm looking forward to in 2009
