What are you reading?










I'm reading Rock, Rattle & Roll by Taryn Elliott and Cari Quinn. I'm listening to Holy Frigging Matrimony: A Tangled Series Short Story by Emma Chase.

Thanks, Paula. One of these days I'll get to it.

Great description, Paula. I have found KA often gets a little long & drawn out (my early reactions were they could use editing & shortened) - and as you said, tedious in the middle with very alpha, sexy heroes that may appear slightly less intelligent then they are. But I usually come out at the end really enjoying them. Creed is one of my favorites - this one gets intense & heartbreaking at times.

Thanks Sandra because I was trying to decide if I should read any more of her books. I will take a look at that book. I liked the book a lot but as you correctly stated it was very, very, very long with lots of unimportant information. Also, Nina, the heroine did not seem to be able to complete a sentence always starting them with "Max, or Um, or but", but never finishing her thought and that turned me off since she was supposedly an intelligent woman--a lawyer. But I will give her another try because I like the basic premise of the story and it was different.
I finished Hope Ignites by Jaci Burton and here's my review.
I'm now reading Love on the Boardwalk by Christi Barth.

Now listening to




Starting Summoning the Night one way or the other this weekend, Penni. I won't let you down! :) I'm discouraged by my lack of reading time lately but I have some writing deadlines looming and have to finish & perfect two articles for submission. But don't give up on me!! lol

I'd never give up on you Sandra! I am soooo slow especially with actual reading (as opposed to listening), when you get started you will probably still pass me by. I am not worried at all.

On the back it says it was "slumbering" for two centuries, and this edition is the first really available to us. Because of all this I would not be surprised if no one had heard of it, but has anyone heard of it?!

No problem, Elizabeth! I was curious about it so I looked it up.

Christine, I don't think I can describe it! The first book of the series is
The series is considered urban fantasy, I think. There's quite a bit of world building in the beginning but I was drawn into the story line and fell in love with the characters fairly quickly. There are demons, suspense, magic, and a lot of humor, surprisingly enough. I love the writing style of this author - a lot of UF books are not funny but the dialogue made me LOL at times.
