I finished The Bourbon Kings (The Bourbon Kings, #1) by J.R. Ward . My rating is maybe 3.5, or maybe 4. I need to let this story "settle" before reviewing it. As normal with Ward, there are several storylines going in this one which I love. At times, it was intense & I was really into it but then, at other times, it seemed a little over the top to me. There are questions left unanswered but it's not a cliffhanger ending. I think one thing bothering me is that I didn't make a complete connection with the H/h...just never felt enough empathy or something. Hmmm...maybe I am ready to write a review! lol!

Courtney (sekay88) FINALLY got Raven Cursed (Jane Yellowrock, #4) by Faith Hunter from the library (Jane Yellowrock #4). The JY books are among the best plotted in the genre imo. This one did not disappoint. To take advantage of a great Marie Force contest with her new McCarthy's of Gansett Island release tomorrow, am now crash reading Gansett After Dark (The McCarthys of Gansett Island, #11) by Marie Force and Kisses After Dark (The McCarthys of Gansett Island, #12) by Marie Force to be caught up. Two palate cleansers back-to-back... almost a first. And then... the new Kate Daniels (Ilona Andrews) and Lucy Kincaid (Allison Brennan) are also out tomorrow. Such pressure! Haha.

I enjoyed the audiobook version as the Southern Aristocrat attitude comes through. I enjoyed the book but it felt a little too soap operaish in a way. Reminded me of "Dallas".

While I'm here...

I'm on a road trip, listening to two books (one while my niece sleeps). We're listening to The Lost Girls: The True Story of the Cleveland Abductions and the Incredible Rescue of Michelle Knight, Amanda Berry, and Gina DeJesus by John Glatt, that truly awful story. It's riveting and we couldn't believe our trip was over as we were caught up in the story.

I'm listening to Manwhore +1 by Katy Evans when my niece drops off:) Got about ten minutes in so far:)

You know I never even considered reading The Lost Girls, which in itself is amazing as I live and work in Cleveland. So, I'm going to assume you would recommend it??

Absolutely though we're not done yet. You know how there were some who asserted the system let them down? You learn why in a very exacting way.

I loved The Opportunist...but it led to me binge reading the next two! You need to read all 3 books to get the full story & the final conclusion to the whole crazy mess.

Thanks Sandra. I was actually wondering if i need to read the other books and you answered my question. It sounds like it's going to be a miss. Thanks.

I finished Against the Dark by Carolyn Crane, The Associates #1, and really liked the author's style in crafting this style story. It was also a Kindle freebie! Here's my review.

I also finished listening to Manwhore +1 by Katy Evans, Manwhore #2. This is a case where two books were unnecessary and the story could have been told in one. Here's my review.

I'm now reading If You Only Knew by Kristan Higgins and listening to The Secret Sister by Brenda Novak.

Sheri Morell (smorell22) | 2165 comments so I finished reading Never Die Alone by Lisa Jackson and although I enjoyed the book and love the New Orleans series but I have to say this had way to much going on it was hard to keep up.

I liked that one and I am currently reading the sequel. It's my kind of book though. It's like the Dresden Files only not as good:)
