    Revamped Reviews Section

    Posted on Tuesday, June 23rd, 2009 by Leah

    We decided that the Reviews section of the site was looking a little… long what with all the reviews just in alphabetical order next to each other and so I’ve spent the past few days sorting it all out.

    At the top of the page you can see our 6 latest reviews. Then you have an A-Z of all reviews listed by the author’s second name (Ahern, Barr, Carroll etc.). And then we have the Double Review section listing both mine and Chloe’s reviews of the same novel. My reviews are the first of the two covers, Chloe’s the second.

    We’ve also added a handy anchor to the page so you can zip up and down as you wish. Click the “T” and you’ll be magically transported to the “T” section of reviews (Toon, Thompson etc.). There is also a handy “Back To Top” at each letter should you want to go back to the top of the page.

    Within the next month I may add further pages - reviews in Book Title order and reviews in rating order.

    As always, let us know your thoughts and let us know if you encounter any problems!

    Book News: Beachcombing by Maggie Dana

    Posted on Tuesday, June 23rd, 2009 by Leah

    maggiedanabeachcombingMaggie Dana’s debut novel, Beachcombing, was released earlier this month on June 5th and sounds like a very interesting read:

    Jillian Hunter treasures her independence. She’s raised two sons by herself, launched a small business, and restored a tumbledown beach cottage in Connecticut. But when a trip to London reunites her with Colin an old flame she hasn’t seen in thirty-five years Jill falls for him all over again.

    Love makes Jill reckless. This could be her chance for a new beginning. But Colin isn t quite the boy she remembers and she ends up risking everything she’s worked for her business, her home, and her two closest friends to make a life with him. And when she’s faced with the risk of losing Colin as well, Jill is forced to take an uncomfortably close look at the woman she’s allowed herself to become.

    Funny, sophisticated, and wise, Beachcombing is a coming-of-middle-age story about girlfriends when you’re no longer a girl, about growing up when you’re already grown up, and the price you’re willing to pay for the love of your life.

    Book Review: Pop Tart by Kira Coplin & Julianne Kaye

    Posted on Tuesday, June 23rd, 2009 by Leah

    poptartYoung make-up artist Jackie Reilly has always dreamed of making it big in TinselTown, concealing the flaws of the rich and famous. Stuck in a rut with a crazy boss, she thinks her big break will never come - until she meets a girl who guarantees her life will never be the same again!

    16-year-old Brooke Parker is bubbly, vivacious, charming - and about to become the world’s most famous teenager. A pop singer on the verge of superstardom, Brooke instantly takes a shine to Jackie and draws her into a world of white-stretch limos, screaming fans and invitations to VIP events.

    But as Jackie quickly finds out, fame has its dark side. Forced to juggle the various egos of Brooke’s entourage - from bitchy stylists to over-eager publicists and a manager that serves his own interests before all else - all preserving the golden girl image of brand Brooke. Caught in the tight grip of the P.R machine, Brooke starts to rebel, taking Jackie along for the ride. At first her bad girl antics are a blast, earning her even more column inches, but when her heavy partying brings Brooke’s demons to the surface she begins to fall apart and soon, she is taking Jackie down with her.

    When Jackie is forced to learn the rules of showbusiness the hard way, her friendship with Brooke is put to the ultimate test - will she be yet another casualty of Brooke’s increasing quest for fame? Or can she save herself - and Brooke?
