I say pick a book you want to read and set aside the ones you have to read for reviews if they're not appealing. Then once you get a good read in, you can go back to gambling on the ones you have to review LOL!
Okay I finished
and
and both were quite good. Now to change up my genres again, I'm diving into
because Brooke totally got me in the mood to start it :)
Couldn't continue
. I am just not liking the heroine and finding it annoying. I will try to read it again later because I want to read everything Heyer has ever written. I don't know what is up with this one. I love Heyer's books. I have only ever read one dud Powder and Patch. Where the heroine was idiot and the plot ridiculous.
and
loved them both but The Gilded Cuff was sooooo great. It is one of my favorites of the year. I am so in love with this author's writing and characters. I can't wait to get to book 2. I also can't wait to read more of the Seal's series. They are quick action packed romance reads.Currently listening to
and looking for a romance to read along with it.

FINALLY finished listening to
and I LOVED IT! It took forever since I listened to it (& with kids around that was NOT going to happen) but it was amazingly good. Their BB series is great. I'm gonna read their
soon.
Looks like we are on a romance kick right now. Well...you guys, I don't have time to read :(
I have listened to a couple of mysteries but trying to figure out what I want to listen to while cleaning the house. Any volunteers??

True! This wasn't a review read, however. This one was a recommendation from a friend. A few friends actually. All trusted. But it just was not for me.

SO awesome and the audios are fantastic. Both series are great and I can't get enough of them so I'm anxiously waiting for the next Sweet Filthy book :)

This is a hard place because you want to like what your friends like and when it's not the case then you feel conflicted.

Hmm.. what are you in the mood for sweetie? And more importantly, if they have to be on audio since you're doing stuff, which ones do you on audio to choose from?

Thinking about DNFing

for a me read and I think I'll dive into

It's been three weeks since I finished a book, and I am excited to have finished
today. It was really good. Now I am going to try reading
which I found at the library.

I finished
, loved it! I didn't like it quite as much as Incarnate, but I have major love for that trilogy. The writing in the Orphan Queen is better, though, and I think its overall just a better fantasy world. I also really liked the characters.Right now reading
, good so far!

for the blog tour. Although my co-blogger has already read and will put her review up. I thought I should read it since I got it on NG.

I have the first book in my Next Up shelf so hoping to get to it soonish. Let me know how you like this second book.

This is exactly why I change up reading genres like every other book. Otherwise I probably wouldn't enjoy most of what I end up reading.
