I am a book lover and reviewer. I’ve always loved reading and remember the joys of reading the Famous Five, Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys. I prefer crime fiction and psychological thrillers but also have a soft spot for chick-lit and women’s fiction and anything else that catches my interest.

There are two of us who started this site, as a means to express our love of all things pertaining to books. Whether it be a review, an author or model interview, a fun post, or anything that is informative. We also have a few other member participants, who will also give their input from time to time. This is meant to be a fun site for you to sit back, have a drink and discuss your favorite things. It is after all a cafe style place for us to meet.

I am currently open to review requests but I'm being selective in what I accept due to running this book blog alongside dealing with medical stuff. I like to read most genres of book but my favourite genres are: contemporary fiction, literary fiction, women's fiction, thrillers, crime and mystery, young adult, chick lit/lad lit, and biographies.
