The genre I am most passionate and DO review are FICTION in the following categories: Contemporary/Popular/Women's/Chick-Lit/General/Historical/Amish/Mysteries/Suspense/Thrillers, AND not necessarily in any particular order. These are the ONLY categories in FICTION I will review. I do NOT review any of the current fads of Fantasy/Supernatural/Paranormal/Vampire/Werewolves/Zombies/Fairies/Witches, etc. NOR any other vampires/witches/fantasy/sci-fi/fairies and any other fictional category I may have missed. My LOVE for reading goes back to before Kindergarten when I was encouraged to read and fell in love with books! That encouragement still exists today in my LOVE FOR BOOKS! I enjoy escaping into another world into other characters' lives. I am disabled and cannot work due to a neurological muscle disease called Stiff Person Syndrome, which causes my muscles to go completely rigid/stiff, then spasm out of control. I have great difficulty with mobility and standing. I must sit and rest my muscles a lot with my legs elevated, so reading fits into my 'Ability'! I LOVE to write reviews about the books I've read so I can tell other people my honest opinion about the books so they can make an informed decision as to whether or not they want to read that particular book. I've been Blogging about books on my other Blog for over the last 2 years now, and LOVE it! You can find that blog here: http://www.lauriehere.blogspot.com I would love to review books for Publishers, Publicists, and Independent Authors. Contact me and we'll set something up! Just an FYI: I do get a LOT of requests so I cannot guarantee I 'can' review your book. Just ask, though, and I'll let you know!";s:15:"currentLocation";s:8:"Michigan";s:6:"emails";a:1:{i:0;a:2:{s:7:"primary";s:4:"true";s:5:"value";s:25:"laurieisreading@gmail.com";}}s:4:"urls";a:1:{i:0;a:2:{s:5:"value";s:34:"http://www.lauriehere.blogspot.com";s:5:"title";s:39:"Laurie Here Reading and Writing Reviews";}}}}}
