Leslie (chibilee02) @Jenny - Yea me too, I really hoping to like it too. But I think it'd be worth it for you to read since the setting and time is of interest for you.

@ Lisa - Oh I really want to read The White Princess. Let me know how it is?

namericanwordcat | 591 comments Here is a summary of my most recent good reads. I am kind of giddy with how many good books I have read!

I am having a great reading month. I am on vacation. I hate cliffhangers so none of these books have them. These books are so worth your dime!


The Chocolate Thief (Amour et Chocolat #1) by Laura Florand 5 stars. I loved this book so much I bought the whole series for myself as a birthday gift.

If you like KA's goofier heroines, you will like these two Charmed (Friends and Lovers Trilogy, #2) by Beth Ciotta Jinxed (Friends and Lovers Trilogy, #1) by Beth Ciotta

Logan & Jenna (Wolf's Mate, #6) by R.E. Butler 4 stars. Sweetheart of a tattooed wolf shifter hero and she is a fairy. Awesome!

Hotter Than Ever (Out of Uniform, #9) by Elle Kennedy 4 star menge

Wrong Bed, Right Guy (Come Undone, #1) by Katee Robert Another hot tattooed guy who is a sweetheart. Funny.

The Story Guy by Mary Ann Rivers great emotional debut

I read this a while go but if you have not picked it up you should Neanderthal Seeks Human A Smart Romance (Knitting in the City, #1) by Penny Reid

Just finished it and it was sooooo good! I just love Lynsay Sands characters and the way she adds humor to a wonderful love story.

Saxonjus | 138 comments After 2 disappointing reads Inferno & Gone Girl Im debating which book to choose next!!! Im leaning towards my favourite Historical ie Kingsmakers Daughter or Heresy! or start Dark Places & give Gillian Flynn another chance!!!! Help!


message 1585: by Lisa Kay, Tinker Bell (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 21897 comments Hmmm... Sorry, Saxonjus, I don't think Gillian Flynn is the author for me. Nice that you're going to give her another chance.

message 1588: by Leslie (new)

Leslie (chibilee02) @namericanwordcat - I read Dead Sexy Dragon too and I liked it well enough. It was good for that in between period between books.

@Saxonjus - Maybe you should read your other choices before tackling Gillian Flynn again. Give yourself a break from her.

Your welcome. I always find that if I'm unsure about an author to go back to him/her with a clear head and fresh outlook so that I'm not influence by the previous work they've done. There is such a thing as author overload. At least for me lol

Ok, now I'm reading The Lost Hours by Karen White and I'm hoping to start Escaping Reality (The Secret Life of Amy Bensen, #1) by Lisa Renee Jones on my kindle tonight.
