“Love Finds You in Revenge, Ohio”
Every few weeks I make a point of checking to see what Amazon.com’s #1 customer reviewer Harriet Klausner is up to. Harriet recently broke the 20,000 review mark. She claims to have read and reviewed 20,035 books for Amazon through today. Believe it or not. I don’t. She may have written all those reviews but I find it impossible to comprehend that anybody could have read that many books over the time period that she has been posting her “reviews.”
And for someone who has “written” that many of them they are usually mediocre. Some are even atrocious. She reviews a lot of romance. She just reviewed one that she describes as “a wonderful warm historical Americana romance.” It does have a catchy title though:
“Love Finds You in Revenge, Ohio”. Lisa Harris wrote it.
I like that. Apparently there is an entire series of these romances; Love Finds You in….(name the small town)…
