Finally, after a delay of a few months, my blog make-over is here.
It cost me a few years of my life (you know I'm exaggerating LOL) but I got it done, all by myself...even the photoshop stuff, okay I'll be honest and say that hubby did help a little bit with the photoshop hell... but colors, lay-out, ideas for images, font, sidebars etc...that was all me.
The way the blog looks now is how I had it in my head for a very long time and thanks to dear friend Leontine who pointed me in the direction of Artisteer I am now proud to present the new and improved PEARL'S WORLD OF ROMANCE!!
Even though I am not the world's best replier to comments, (I really, really suck at that) I hope you will continue to visit and read what romance novels I'm buying, reading and reviewing and what authors I welcome to talk romance with us. If you promise to keep visiting, I promise to pick up posting reviews more regularly again. With the new job, I've been slacking in that department but after almost 2 months I'm starting to get into a comfortable rhythm and finding small batches of time to do some reviewing in between work, social life with family and friends, reading and watching my TV shows.

Nice to meet you!
- Pearl

- 39, married to my real life romance hero, addicted to TV shows, reading romance novels and Twitter. I'm a chronic (e)book hoarder and my absolute favorite genres within romance fiction are contemporary romance and romantic suspense, but I don't shy away from historical, paranormal or erotic romance either. Even the occasional (urban) fantasy romance, futuristic and sci fi romance may make it to my Mount TBR. This is my corner of the world wide web where I let you know what books I'm hoarding, reading and reviewing.
