Celebrating 10 Years of KRC

February 2017

 

 

When I started my review website January 1, 2007, I wanted to be able to share my love for reading. I had worked in a bookstore and was a pro at suggestive selling - "if you like this, then maybe you'll like that."

And that is my philosophy for Kathy's Review Corner. I only post positive reviews (if I don't like a book, a review is not posted here). My hope is that as visitors come and wander through my reviews, if they find we have similar tastes, then they might be able to find new authors and books to read.

Now for KRC's 10th Anniversary, I am going to start in February, recognizing all of my previous Gems. Then, for March through December, each month I will reveal a 10 Year Gem Winner.

If you are not already a member of my newsletter, please consider joining my announcements group. Although there is no prize for February, there will be some throughout the year (and beyond!).

Welcome

I truly enjoy sharing my love of reading. This site was started to allow me to share some of my favorite books. I hope that if you look around and find that you agree with some of my selections (see my reviews), that you will return and hopefully find new authors. I plan on having periodic "Recommended Reads" lists that will include books I recommend, as well as suggestions by visitors to this site. I will also keep you up-to-date on different upcoming events, special offers, etc.

As you look around, I'm still learning my way around HTML, etc. If you see any errors, typos, please e-mail me.

My Personal Disclaimer

Boy Meets Girl, They Fall in Love, and the two of them live Happily Ever After. This is the content for any book I believe is a true Romance Genre novel. The books that I recommend, or have reviews posted for will follow that format, unless I note otherwise. Granted we may know the outcome of a Romance Genre Novel, but it is the journey the characters take that is the reason we read these books. The Happily Ever After doesn't mean they're all vampires... Just means that the future is open to them, even if it is set 500 years in the past - we don't need to know their final chapter in life. At times I have have Recommend Reads by visitors to this site - I cannot guarantee that they meet my criteria for a Romance Genre Novel.
