Christmas is now a distant memory, the January sales are now over and Spring is on the horizon. It is also the time of year when our thoughts turn to LOVE!

To celebrate such a heart warming emotion, we at ARR have decided to post a review of Louise Wise,’s dark chick-lit romance, The Fall of the Misanthrope. I bitch, therefore I am, on February 14th. The author Louise Wise has also written a post for us in which she shares her experiences as an author and this will accompany my review.

Those of you who have read my earlier post will know that her sci-fi romance  Eden was one of my favourite reads of 2012. See my review here https://areadersreviewblog.wordpress.com/category/sci-fi-romance/

In Misanthrope, Valerie Anthrope (Miss Anthrope) is a successful young business woman, who needs no one in her life to make her happy, least of all a life partner. However, this is all about to change as her ‘fairy godmother’, aka Ellen Semple has decided to step in and make Valerie her next ‘project’. What follows is a deeply romantic and insightful tale, which deals with some difficult issues and the healing power of love.

We are looking forward to Louise’s visit and we hope that there will be more authors who decide to drop by in the future. We would also be very interested to hear your suggestions for a top romantic read, in any genre, for us to enjoy!
