So it shouldn't be too hard. I'm really disappointed in The Handmaiden. I hope the show is good. It had potential. Loved the idea but nothing happened!

This was an ARC of a first book in a new series of hers. I will be looking for the next book when it comes out, these characters were great, and I'm intrigued by the idea of a family business combining a funeral home and a bait shop :)

I love her series that revolve around vampires. They are funny and more character driven than Paranormal. I love Jane Jameson and her pals. I really love it when she and Dick Cheney (not the ex VP) argue.
Jane Jameson series
Half-Moon Hollow
I liked the Naked Werewolf Series too.

WTG everyone!

I'm still loitering around on the playground, I'm pretty sure I'll get a "go to jail" card very soon... (but my playground equipment book comes along sooooo slowly, I read one or two chapters, get annoyed with some of the characters, move to another book, read one or two chapters.. )
