About Me:
I review books, provide entertainment reviews, love blogging and am a keeper of my personal menagerie!
Website:
http://www.anovelmenagerie.com
A Novel Menagerie is a site that I created in Fall of 2008 as a means of sharing my enthusiasm for the books that I read. The more that I read, the more hooked I became on blogging about them. So, I stopped sleeping and became an addicted book blogger.
In addition to the book reviews, I also publish weekly entertainment reviews on movies, television, music and more. I’m a bit of a reality television junkie… so you’ll see reviews on Dancing With the Stars, The Bachelorette, American Idol and Survivor. I usually write a recap of the week’s TV shows in my Sunday Salon posts.

You can find some “interesting” news in the Current Headlines section of the blog. Although, I used to post much more “in the news” than I have of late.

I am addicted to contests and giveaways, therefore you’ll usually find a contest or two listed on the site. You can find contest links in my sidebar and via the contests page.

The near-to-last section of A Novel Menagerie is The Menagerie, itself! I am the single mother of very lively, 12 year old girls and maintain my personal menagerie of critters, big and small. It’s basically, a small zoo! But, our common love for animals is something that really keeps us connected. So, The Menagerie is my collection of personal tales about my home life and my thoughts. I hope you enjoy it as much as the other pages!

On the website, you’ll also find links to our family-based business… BookCharming.Com. This website reflects our handmade products as we specialize in decorative book and reader accessories… specifically, BookCharmers & ChainCharmers. Check it out!

Each article, when posted, will reflect the insignia (i.e. photograph of the category) of the correct page where you can find more of the same! You can click on that small photo and it will take you to a brief history of all blog posts within that category.

I welcome you to my site and thank you for spending your very valuable time with me!

Hi Sheri, I want to introduce you to you my debut novel "A Circle of souls" which is a murder, mystery, psychological thriller and a tale of justice and hope. I was wondering if you would like to review my book for your blog or sites such as Amazon. Do visit www.acircleofsouls.com to read more about the book. If you would like to read it I can mail an advance readers copy to you. Thanks for your time in advance.

Best regards

Early Endorsements for “A Circle of Souls”

Linda Fairstein, NYT Bestselling Author: "A fascinating debut - this novel takes the reader to the darkest places in the human soul, from a writer with the authenticity to lead us there. A stunning thriller and an important read."

Judge Judy Sheindlin, star of the Judge Judy Show: "The seminal work of this fine author kept me glued to my chair until the adventure was over and the mystery solved. A great read!"

Book Synopsis:

The sleepy town of Newbury, Connecticut, is shocked when a little girl is found brutally murdered. The town s top detective, perplexed by a complete lack of leads, calls in FBI agent Leia Bines, an expert in cases involving children.

Meanwhile, Dr. Peter Gram, a psychiatrist at Newbury s hospital, searches desperately for the cause of seven-year-old Naya Hastings devastating nightmares. Afraid that she might hurt herself in the midst of a torturous episode, Naya s parents have turned to the bright young doctor as their only hope.

The situations confronting Leia and Peter converge when Naya begins drawing chilling images of murder after being bombarded by the disturbing images in her dreams. Amazingly, her sketches are the only clues to the crime that has panicked Newbury residents. Against her better judgment, Leia explores the clues in Naya s crude drawings, only to set off an alarming chain of events.
In this stunning psychological thriller, innocence gives way to evil, and trust lies forgotten in a web of deceit, fear, and murder.

Hi,

My name is Chris Tusa, and I'm a writer from New Orleans. I am writing because my debut novel, Dirty Little Angels, is now available, and I was hoping you might be willing to mention it on your blog (or review it). If you're interested, I'd be glad to send you an e-book version of the book. Just let me know. I've included a summary of the novel below:

Dirty Little Angels
Set in the slums of New Orleans, among clusters of crack houses and abandoned buildings, Dirty Little Angels is the story of sixteen year old Hailey Trosclair. When the Trosclair family suffers a string of financial hardships and a miscarriage, Hailey finds herself looking to God to save her family. When her prayers go unanswered, Hailey puts her faith in Moses Watkins, a failed preacher and ex-con. Fascinated by Moses's lopsided view of religion, Hailey, and her brother Cyrus, begin spending time down at an abandoned bank that Moses plans to convert into a drive-through church. Gradually, though, Moses's twisted religious beliefs become increasingly more violent, and Hailey and Cyrus soon find themselves trapped in a world of danger and fear from which there may be no escape.

If you'd like to read the first chapter before you commit, feel free to visit my web site:

Thanks so much,
Chris

Nope. My sister called me Kiki as a kid and my nephew used to call me Inky (which I kind of liked, I don't know why). But with family, it's usually Nikki or, in my dad's case, just Nik.
