Hello world!

So, after much procrastinating I’ve decided to finally to join the big girls club and say HELLO to WordPress…I’m so excited! Please bear with me while I get the hang of this new setup and complete the transition. You might see a couple of changes as I play “dress up” but I promise I’ll try my best to have the site looking “decent” by the end of this week!

Romancing the Darkside Gets a Makeover!

Romancing the Darkside Gets a Makeover!

A big hello to all my romancing ravens! When I started this blog almost two years ago (this February), I never thought it would become more than just a hobby. I’m thankful that you guys stop by and read my reviews, enter my giveaways and share my passion for books, you don’t know what that means to me. With that being said, I thought it was time for a little makeover for Romancing the Darkside. I want to thank the […]

Happy Fourth of July!

Happy Fourth of July from Romancing the Darkside!  Wishing everyone a fun and relaxing day whether you’re at the beach, home or at a family barbeque celebrating Independence Day.

Of course I had to provide a little eye candy…“Oh, to be the American flag…“ God Bless America! 😉




Remembering September 11th, Ten Years Later

Remembering September 11th, Ten Years Later

The anniversary of September 11th around it feels like it happened just the year before to me. It’s a day never forgotten by those who lived through it. I was a freshman in college and away from my hometown of NY when it happened. I don’t even think I can put my emotions into words, even after all this time. My prayers go out to all of the families and to all our men and women who are out there […]

Romancing the Darkside Goes On Vacation…

Hey Guys! Just wanted to let you all know that I’ll be on vacation from August 22nd through September 2nd in hot and rainy…but sometimes sunny Florida (I’m a day late in posting this…)! I’ll be checking in whenever I can but can’t promise to do much blogging while I’m sunbathing and hitting the beach.  I hope to work on my tan (always wearing sunscreen of course!) and catch up on my reading to bring you even more reviews on all the […]

My First Post…

My First Post…

So after reviewing tons of books on my favorite sites I’ve decided to give in and join the blogging world. This blog will be dedicated to one of my favorite things: books and everything relating to them! I do apologize in advance if I sometimes vent about daily life here as well! Here’s a little bit about me…  I’m a NYC girl who loves to read in my spare time I’ve had a fascination with vampires and the supernatural since […]
