LOL, Dhes! Thanks for posting that!
As soon as I heard this book would be about the Smythe-Smith girls, I knew I had to read it.


Or at least a free book!

I never felt bad for them. I always thought they must be fun girls with good self-esteem. I mean, anybody who would play so badly year after year must have some balls, LOL!

Katherine, I STRONGLY recommend you read

I couldn't even finsh that book, I read to like 120 pages adn it just couldn't get into it. It's only teh second book I have ever NOT finished.

Autumn, I was hoping to skim by and you wouldn't notice. LOL I'm halfway done with it. I just have a hard time with shallow heroines, I'm hoping she will improve soon. I wanted to see the movie but never did make it. I will try to do better in the future. :)

I'm glad to hear it. I liked that it wasn't a cookie cutter HR. It was more thought provoking than most books.


YES! I read my first Laura Kinsale book,






Yeah, he wouldn't have wanted it, and I'd have had to beat him over the head with his cane until he was bloody, but I'd be willing to do that if necessary.

"Tsk tsk" How like Katherine to go into mischief!! i had my radar ready!! LOL to be honest i liked "something blue" a lot better.. You dont have to put up with the spoiled Darcy in book #1.

Hmm.. I liked it ok.. i wasn't impressed or anything. I do however, like her writing. it mirrors Jodi Picoult in some aspects.

I loved that! Hyacinth is such an evilly cunning Bridgerton and it's awesome to read her finding her match in Gareth. *fans self*
I'm currently reading Ransom . Oh I knew I had to. It's been sitting in my shelf forever and I'm sure it's awesome. Now if I could just go to a more quiet place..

Wow, I've read a lot of books since I last posted on Thursday (being sick, I didn't get out much, lol):

It was really good, but emotionally draining. It will likely be a bit before I can proceed with the series.

CA's other historicals are very good, and less emotionally draining! And you should definitely give Annie's Song a try if you haven't yet!

I sure do Dhes! it seems like it has 2 or 3 stories on the book (im not sure-its an e-book) but the first one looks very interesting WWII era.
