Read this review and listen to this interview: The Lace Reader by Brunonia Barry

I’ve been meaning to draw your attention to Katrina’s fantastic review at Stone SouP of The Lace Reader by Brunonia Barry ever since I read it over a month ago. I love her review because it’s such a detailed account of her reaction to the book but doesn’t contain a single spoiler. Plus there’s added info about the author, which is always fun to read. This is the type of review I aspire to writing! Visit Katrina’s blog to read her review.

If you’ve read the book and ONLY if you’ve read the book, you might also be interested in listening to a phone interview with Brunonia Barry . Apparently, The Lace Reader is being made into a movie (set to be released in 2010). Thanks to Dawn at She Is Too Fond of Books for mentioning this interview on her blog.

Check out my review of The Lace Reader.

Guest book reviews in October and radio interview

I’ve guest posted on two different blogs this month:

My review of American Wife by Curtis Sittenfeld appeared on Word to Mouth earlier this month. Thanks, Carrie, for featuring me on your blog! If you are not already familiar with Word to Mouth, I encourage you to check it out. As Carrie says, this site “is an Internet talk show and companion blog website produced to introduce readers to new and seasoned authors and the books they write.”



My review of The Heretic’s Daughter by Kathleen Kent was also featured on Tina’s blog, Bookshipper, today. Thanks, Tina, for giving me the book and guest posting my review!

Enter my giveaway for a copy of this book . Deadline is November 7.


Finally, Kathleen Kent was interviewed on Blog Talk Radio a couple of days ago. If you haven’t already done so, you can listen to the interview.
