I've read them all. The good, the bad and the really bad. BUT I must say this book wasn't nearly as bad as I expected. My expectations were low mostly due to the reviews around, but also due to hit list and the other latest.

What I liked about this book. It was entertaining. I read it. Now I wouldn't read it twice, like the first lot of books. But I would at least read it once.

What I didn't like, I wasn't sucked into the book. I wasn't like, oooo I love that or wow, what a quote. Nope. Just read it like I read facebook. Just checking up on what's going on but nothing to really mention.

It had all the main men in there. That was a nice change. I think they have become a little to open about the other men. I didn't like that Jean Claude now has other lovers. I thought it was always sweet that Anita was the only girl for him.

I skipped a fair bit towards the end. Found it a bit blah blah.

But yeh, if you're an Anita fan and want to keep up to date on the happenings of her life, I would read it. Nothing happened that couldn't be quickly caught up on, but it was still a read.

I must say, it's got to the point that I don't even try and keep track of all the men's names any more. I keep track of the main lot and the rest I just go, uh huh and keep reading.

The sex scenes are a bit boring. Yup, been there read that. I would love to read a romantic moment between the men that is touching and sweet, rather then about lust and need. Maybe a get away, like the hinted family meetings etc.

I used to think Micah was her fav, her main love. Now I feel like she really doesn't have a special connection with anyone. It's almost like she just goes where it's good.

Anyway, point is it was an alright read. Read it, don't read it. It won't make a diff. The next book will come out and you will still know whats going on. I think it's getting to be like a soap opera - don't watch a single ep for a year, then catch it one day by pure luck and know exactly what's going on within five minutes.
