Finished AMAZON INK Again
The trouble with being an author is I have no time to read other people's books, except as a critique partner for fellow published authors or for research. Sometimes, I really do miss being a book reviewer. I needed some inspiration for the massive amount of world-building I need to do for my next novel, so I made the time to read AMAZON INK by Lori Devoti again. She always writes great First Person POV, a skill I envy. The thing is I never would have plucked this book off the store shelf. Its cover is stereotypical Urban Fantasy, a kick-butt chick with a weapon. Usually, either the boobs or the belly button is showing too. How's a reader supposed to know which book he or she might love if they all look the same? Book reviewers. I found out about Amazon Ink from fellow blogging book reviewer/debut author Tia Nevitt The great thing about re-reading a book you like is finding new and wonderful things about it, which turns it into a book you love. The author also had great writers' resources at her website. Go check out Lori Devoti

I love Amazon Ink! I loved it because of the voice, and how it is so family orientated.
