For any author who would like his/her book to be reviewed, contact me. Poetry books too are solicited for reviewing. However, there are some genres I tend to avoid. Feel free to ask me.

I must mention here that I read at my own pace and depending on my mood. Don't ask me to hurry.
I am with Biblical Mary Magdalene and have entered her thoughts. For most part, I am a mermaid and talk of love, betrayal and loss of my legs. It can be anywhere but mostly takes place near the oceans or in the oceans. The voices might seem strange but the sentiments are universal. My movements in the poems are eternal.

Great teaser! I look forward to your review soon!

I haven't heard about your book, am I supposed to laugh or cry?
"Curiouser and curiouser" - Alice in Wonderland. Great tease. I am now very curious.
sounds quite different, hope you're enjoying it!
Now that is striking - definitely one to investigate!
The Bible and mermaids, etc. all in one teaser. What am I to think?
Wow Mary Magdalene is definitely not typically associated with mermaids.. not to my knowledge. Sounds like a FAR OUT book =)
Thanks for stopping by!
That certainly is a teaser all right. Never heard of this poet before, but the book sounds intriguing.
