Another Newbie joining ranks
I'm a book fanatic and read as much as possible. I've been captivated by the e-book revolution; though, it took me a while to give up the paper versions as my primary source of fiction. Because I have a Kindle, I have found navigating the e-book world a bit confounding at times. I've often wished for a good solid book review to steer me in the right direction on a book; and, find the e-book reviews rather lacking in detail or useful information. I somehow stumbled on this site and would love to provide reviews that readers can use to evaluate their purchase before they make it. If I get a free book out of it, so much the better.
I read horror, mysteries, and thrillers as my top ranked genera's and love thought provoking, well written best sellers outside those genera's as well. Stephen King, Joyce Carol Oates, Jodi Picoult, and most recently Catherine Ryan Hyde are listed among my favorite contemporary authors. I'm a fan of Salinger, Fitzgerald, Hemingway and many other greats as well.
I'm looking forward to joining a book community as well. I haven't had any really good book discussions for years!
