Congrats Christine! I just ordered Soul Deep from Amazon- how was it?

[Christine]

I liked it, but there was a touch too much smut in it for me. Of course, I was reading the Breed books one right after another, and it grows tiresome after a while if you don't space them out.

[Sandra]

Hooray, Christine!

I am definitely ok with some smut! But I know what you mean by needing a little space in between the Breed books. I also feel that way about Christine Feehan's Carpathian series. I read too many of those in a row and it started to get too repetitive.

[southpaw285]

Thanks Yz, BJ and Sandra. I'm not able to read nearly as much this year as I did last year, so it seems I never complete a challenge anymore. Doesn't stop me from trying or signing up for them though. I love, love, love these reading challenges!
