What a line-up, really rock star quality.

Just read about it through KJC's facebook. She's got titles and a summary of her story here: http://us11.campaign-archive2.com/?u=...

LOL. You always beat me to posting JCP news. :-)

This list sounds promising, indeed.

I'm reading The Girl Next Door by Amy Jo Cousins. Bisexual heroine. I've just started it, but Cousins writes a good book. Great characterization.

I've never read anything by Cousins, barring what I thought was one of the very best essays of that grand slam Love is Love collection of essays last year.

I saw this announcement in KJ's newsletter and I was admiring the line up too.

She's good. The series is all new adult folks on campus, though this latest is after the hero graduates, still reletivly young protagonists.

Off Campus is the first in the series, and I thought the set up of the two heroes was really cool. Tom's dad stole a ton of money in a ponzi scheme, and Tom tries to finish college. Goes from rich to poor and humiliated. He was a great character.

[Steve]

I beta read for one of those authors and knew this anthology was coming. What a powerhouse line up!

I agree that this was good.

That sounds exciting (the beta reading). :-)

Has Ginn Hale said whether the Wicked Gentleman short story will be published when complete? I'd rather wait for that than read installments online.

As Karen wrote, the 4th and - I add - last installment of Mr. Sykes and the Noble Muse is there. So maybe now you can read it.

[Jax]

Thanks Antonella. I didn't know it was only going to be 4 parts.

I started it as well, but found it hard to concentrate on the words. It is a bit on the boring side. I will of course continue and see how it goes.

Ah well, different strokes. I found it highly entertaining, with some lovely scenes showing Simon and Dec dealing with friends, family, and various strange events. But except for the road trip, I suppose you could say that nothing much really HAPPENED. My review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

I read In the Middle of Somewhere. It's beautiful if a bit on the long side, but given my lack of patience lately, it's probably me, and what i mean is, it's a slow-building type thing which was great, but needs a bit of patience. It's worth it though. Great characterization, and a lovely way with words, some humor too. It's the first novel by this author and i'm looking forward to whatever she writes next.

Then I started two mysteries: The Hired Man and Blackmail, My Love: A Murder Mystery. Both very good so far.

[Judy]

Just finished NO MATE OF MINE by Lisa Oliver, and then HAD to purchase and read the rest of her Bounded and Bonded series. Amazing! I get twitchy about graphic violence, inflicted pain and misery, and brutality. Any abuse, be it physical or emotional, has me whimpering and freaking the hell out. Her books briefly touch on these things, off page, and I didn't curl into a miserable ball. I enjoyed them...surprised the hell out of myself...didn't think I could handle BDSM in any form.

Has there been any indication when the ebook will be out? (I just finished #7 last night. It would be perfect timing.)

In the past, the ebooks came out long after the work was available online and in print.

I received my print copy last week, but I'm saving it… : )

Ah, that's a shame. Although I guess I can always make my own once/if it's out online.

I'd guess that these days the ebook version will come out much sooner than before.

In the past, I think I just copied everything she had on her website, enlarged the font to something ginormous and saved it as a PDF for my kindle.

Can't wait for book eight! I thought we'd have to wait eons for this!

[Jordan]

I'm about to finish The Caine Mutiny, finally. And I have to say the book is amazing! It took forever to get through 500+ pages, but so far, it was totally worth it. I've got a chapter and a half to go! But I'm stuck at work, so can't read more until later. *sigh*

Then, then, I get to start another Neil Plakcy book!!! Olives for the Stranger will be my book tonight when I get home. yay!!!

Personally, I'd be more excited if she said audiobook :D
But, definitely getting the ebook, as soon as it is up somewhere not Amazon

Risk it All, number 7 in the Dance with the Devil series by Megan Derr is out:

Hi, folks; I've been away for awhile. Have you guys been reading John Wiltshire? I like m/m historical and so read his A ROYAL AFFAIR 2 parter. I was impressed and so looked at his MORE HEAT THAN THE SUN series. For some reason I had been turned off by the blurb about it in the past. Anyway, I gave the first book a try, and WOW! That's LOVE IS A STRANGER. The second book is CONSCIOUS DECISIONS OF THE HEART. This series reminds me for its intensity and grab-you storytelling of Voinov's Special Forces books.

If you haven't tried him, you're in for a treat.

I know there's more than a few John Wiltshire fans around here, Candice. :) I really enjoy his books. Plus, he lives in New Zealand (like me), so that's kind of neat.

I did as well. It was an auto buy!!!

[Mtsnow13]

I've been reading a book outside my usual realm titled A New Earth by Eckhart Tolle, and listening to it on audiobook. He has kind of a soothing voice and the ideas he's bringing up really get me to thinking...

[Alison]

I read Edie Danford's Uncovering Ray recently and I really liked it. It's about a gender neutral twenty-year old and I thought it was quite well done. This is not a book "about" gender and I particularly liked that about it. It's just someone's story of falling in love and being totally overwhelmed by it, and it's in first person POV. A couple of books I've read with gender neutral characters have had a lot of "instruction manual" information, which is fine and educational, but for me it really takes away from the story. There are no lectures in this book, which I appreciated. Ray's just Ray, no big explanations needed. I don't think there are all that many romancey books with a gender neutral main character, and that's actually why I bought it and it turned out to be quite good. I'm glad to see books like this getting published.

[Jordan]

Alison, THANK YOU for mentioning that book!!! I've never come across a real gender neutral character before, so naturally, I'm now dying to read this ASAP!

I read book one and two in the More Heat than Sun series and I have the other books in my to - read pile. I just finished reading The Starving Years and listening to Body Art both by Jordan Castillo Price. I really enjoyed both of them.
