Hi, I’m Jane and I am a proud Nerd Girl that Loves Books! I live in San Diego, CA and have been a voracious reader since I was a little girl. I usually read between 100-120 books a year. I read all genres except horror. My favorite books are fantasy, romantasy, mystery/thriller, historical fiction, YA fantasy and Romantic Comedies, especially Hockey RomComs.

I’m fortunate enough to review advance reader copy (ARC) books ( books from publishers and authors before they are published to the general public) for NetGalley, BookBub and Book Sirens, as well as for multiple authors and PR & marketing groups. This gives me a jump on new books that are about to be released so that I can provide my readers with the information they need to decide if they want to read a new book. I love being able to give this service to my readers who are on the fence about whether to purchase and read a new book, or are searching for their next great read. I also review books on Goodreads, Instagram, Twitter, Barnes & Noble, and Amazon.

I belong to a book club that meets every month. The club helps me strike out into other areas and read books that I wouldn’t normally choose to read myself. Sometimes those choices work out – other times, not so much. Regardless, you’ll always find an  honest opinion about the books I read, warts and all.

I attend San Diego Comic Con every year (when there’s not a global pandemic) and love it! It gives me a fantastic opportunity to meet my favorite authors, discover new authors, check out new books before they are released, and learn what’s new with book publishers. I also love to attend author book readings and signings throughout the San Diego area and United States. One of my favorite things to do while traveling is to seek out independent book stores. They are usually so cute and I love supporting indie stores and authors.

If you have any questions about books, authors, or need suggestions for your next book, drop me a line. I’m always happy to discuss books with anyone else who loves to read too. 🙂
