Reviewer Phoebe Jordan Tells All

Terry Kate: I would like to welcome the fabulous reviewer Ms. Phoebe Jordan to the Backseat.  Phoebe tell us a little about your blog?
 

Phoebe: LOL, thanks Terry for having me on your blog. Talk About My Favorite Authors is my review blog that I started about a year ago when I first started getting into blogging. It started out as a group blog with several ladies I met on a romance author forum. That kind of failed big time since I was the only one who was posting reviews and these reviews were for books that I've read for pleasure. I review various genres of romance novels, erotic romance, m/m erotic romance, mystery/thriller, sci-fi/fantasy and young adult novels. I also interview authors and have authors guest blog as well on my review blog to spice things up.
 

TK: So you enjoy some of the hot stuff, what is the appeal?
 

Phoebe: Yes, I enjoy some of the hot stuff. I've only recently gotten into reading erotic romance and m/m erotic romance when I was asked to review Keta Diablo's Land of Falling Stars. Keta introduced me into the genre and has really broadened me to more erotic romance authors who I've come to really enjoy. The appeal for some of the hot stuff is that they are just like the romance novels we love to read, but it takes it up a notch on the hot steamy scenes between the hero and heroines that makes you want more. Also erotic romance and m/m erotic romance novels are just as fun to read the other romance genres though a lot of people think it's more smut than anything else which is funny because romance novels were thought of as smut books as well a long time ago before it sort of became main stream.
 

TK: Too true. What kind of feedback have you gotten from blog readers? Do they seem to like the new and spicy books you are reading?
 

Phoebe: I don't get that many comments on my blog but the ones that I have gotten have been pretty good since they say things like the books sound interesting, or I will have to check it out some time. So I'm thinking that my readers must be liking them a bit if they leave comments like that.
 

TK: One last question before you run off and be a busy reviewer. What is your favorite part of the process?
 

Phoebe: Well my favorite part of the process is reading the fabulous novels that I've had the pleasure of receiving to review. I love that I've been introduced to so many new different romance authors who have been in touch with me about reviewing their books. I also like the part where when I give a fabulous review for an authors book they send their thanks, but I always thank them back for writing such a wonderful novel.
It was wonderful chatting with you Terry!
 

TK: Phoebe - as always a pleasure. Make sure you visit Phoebe's blog - Talk About My Favorite Authors
