How (Not) to Kiss a Toad by Elizabeth A. Reeves My rating: 4 of 5 stars Totally quirky and inventive, this paranormal romance was easy to read, easy to fall into for a few hours, and easy to love. I’m pretty sure there has to be a “next book” at least I hope so! Off […]

| Very short story introducing Kismet and the fact that she's a Therapist to vampires. I liked it very much, but I'd describe it more as a slice-of-life glimpse than an actual story with a plot arc. Good premise, interesting characters, I'll see if I c...more | |

I've been putting off writing a review of this book, because I just don't think any collection of words that I can come up with will do it justice. It's good, so very good that I'd like to take it home with me at closing time. It may be a memoir, but...more |

| I read the first novel by Stallings (Beautiful, Naked & Dead) and loved that one, so I don't know why I was surprised to find myself deeply engrossed in Out There Bad as well. Maybe it's because I never love books in a series equally-- they're a...more | |

| A quick paranormal read... great characters, interesting setting and details. I was a little irritated by the way the main character Elle, went along with being man-handled by her so called friend... It felt a little too out of character and flimsy....more | |

| This was a steamy little novella that wasted no time getting to the goods, so to speak. Underlying all that was a decent plot and great characters that were fleshed out as much as they could be in the shorter novella format. Several inventive scenes...more | |
“My life has been shaped by the decision two people made over 24 years ago. They decided to adopt a child. They got me, and I got a chance at the kind of life all children deserve.”
― Karen Fowler, Reflections on Motherhood
― Karen Fowler, Reflections on Motherhood
“One couldn’t be selective when remembering the past. Ignore the turmoil, chaos and pain – and the truly great memories would not shine with such luster.”
― Karen Fowler, Memories For Sale

“The desire to procreate, in some, is so strong that it creates a sort of tunnel vision in the afflicted. One can’t see beyond trying to make a baby, and they never stop to think about what it will really be like once said baby has in fact, arrived.”
