AAR typically gets its review books from two places: Edelweiss and Netgalley. I love pursuing these lists. I see upcoming books that mystify me–The Ten Best Kentucky Derbys! How to Date A Foreigner!–as well as those I wouldn’t read unless bribed. Most books I just glance and the cover, title, and genre and don’t bother…
Last year, romance sold nearly 39 million print books in the U.S.—a 52% jump from the year before. The genre brought in $1.44 billion and made up almost a quarter of all fiction sales. These are astonishing numbers, the kind that suggest a field that’s thriving. And yet, as someone who reads widely and obsessively…
So what’s everyone reading? I’m currently listening to Apples Never Fall by the always enjoyable Liane Moriarty. I’m a third of the way through and I have no idea what’s going to happen so, if you’ve read it, don’t tell me! I’m actually reading Holly Black’s upcoming first book for adults, Book of Night. I…
It’s Oscar time and, as usual, I have seen almost none of the nominees–currently I’ve only seen Barbie. The nominees are: American Fiction Anatomy of a Fall Barbie The Holdovers Killers of the Flower Moon Maestro Oppenheimer Past Lives Poor Things The Zone of Interest I do plan, this weekend, to watch Oppenheimer although I…

Hello everyone and welcome to the third of our AAR blog columns. The basic idea is that we’re going to choose a book every month and have a discussion about it. We’re still Elisabeth Lane (of Cooking Up Romance), a long-time romance reader who now creates recipes inspired by books and then blogs about it,…
Wow! I voted for the winner but never expected it would be the one. Look forward to reading it and the discussion next month.
For any audio listeners out there, I think this one is even better (and I would give it an A in book form) in audio! So good.
With Nicholas Boulton as narrator,I can only imagine!
I am excited about this one although all three are books I’ve enjoyed.
I actually own this and have never read it yet so I’m excited. I really would have been happy with most of the choices offered. I haven’t read a good Medieval story in quite a while so I have high hopes for this one! Looking forward to the discussion!
I love a good Medieval!
I’m looking forward to reading, well listening, to this again and participating in the discussion.
I lost track of time for this! Let’s discuss it on December 9th!
Works for me.
I had all three of the series in the cloud and thanks to the coming discussion I reread all three and enjoyed them more the second time around!see you on December 9th.
