Hello!

by Sally Andersen

Hello and welcome to my new site - Genre Fiction!

I am not the first writer to grace these Web pages, and Genre Fiction is not the first pages that I am gracing. You can also find my musings at Living Without Meat - a resource for vegans, vegetarians, or those just interested in animals and healthy food - and Style Fix - girl-with-book.jpgupdates on what’s happening in the fashion world.

But to write about books? I am thrilled for this opportunity!

I have started out by reworking the “categories” section a bit (it’s to the right and down a bit on every page). Checking these out should give you a hint as to where I intend to go with Genre Fiction.

Adapted for Film: if it is, was, or will be turned into a screenplay for TV, big screen, or mini-series - you’ll find anything I write about it here.

Author Bios: sometimes, for me, it’s all about the writer behind the book (I’ll read anything by Augusten Burroughs!).

Book Reviews: … yup. They’ll be here.

Book Tours and Other Events: if you want to get your copy signed, meet the author, bump elbows with other readers, or just be “in the know” about where authors are headed - it will be here.

My Favorites: I will try to be unbiased, but there are strong books out there that I will read over and over and over and …

My Rantings: every thing must have a home. Quick personal spurts, news, etc. (like the intro you’re reading right now) will be caged here.

New Releases: classics and old faves are great, but nothing beats the anticipation of waiting for highly-praised book to hit shelves. I’ll do announcements, quick reviews, and more … within a month or so of the book being released.

New York Times Bestsellers: you’ve heard the buzz, it’s been labeled a hit by the NY Times, will you love it? And why is it so popular?

Written by Previous Writers: as I mentioned, I’m not the first. All previous reviews and writings are gathered together here.

Hope to have you back soon!

About Genre Fiction

There's nothing quite the same as a good fiction novel. They weave you through triumphs and struggles, real life situations and fantasy lands, great characters that become like best friends and sickening antagonists. But how do you choose a good fiction book? How do you decide which stories will be worth getting to know? Genre Fiction has all these answers and more! Keep up with which books are soaring the bestsellers lists, which writers are on tour, and which books are being made into films. Read reviews of fiction books from both yesterday and today. Delve into the authors' lives. Most of all, find good fiction books to add to your shelf.
