Will do







Luanne Rice is a great author...if you like her you should also try Catherine Anderson..she is AWESOME



L..."
I'm a big fan of Catherine Anderson, she is amazing! I always cry with her books!
I'm reading two books








OMG - my grandson just got his first pimple....

STILL on



I just finished



Started working on

And starting



I've been on an HR binge. The series I've just finished is by Eloisa James, and starts with this book:
And I've got more coming by the author. I can't seem to shake the HR bug.
It also doesn't help that there's nothing in UF that's calling to me atm. Although that CE Murphy series looks kind of interesting.
Hello everyone!

Hello everyone!
It's like quicksand Sandra, it's sucking me under heh. Am powerless against its pull.
Doesn't help that it's so freakin HUGE. Before I started reading in the genre I thought UF was enormous, but haha shows what I know.

I think I read Heyer back hen I was a teenager just discovering the lurrrve genre. I don't think I've read anything by Amanda Quick, will go check her out. Thanks :)

Yeah UF is just dead for me right now. The last good UF I read must have been the last Kate Daniels and nothing since.
Megan Chase book: have you read the DG series? She's got the same great kind of male lead here, same slightly unfocused heroine (wants to curl up into a ball and give up a lot), same mish-mash world that doesn't always make sense. But still pretty good.
Secret McQueen: haven't read.
Annabelle Lee: shoot me. No really, kill me now.
WWP Radio: really liked this one.

I loved DG so that's good that you compared it to that! Oh no, Annabelle Lee was that bad?? What didn't you like about it?
And I actually own WWP Radio so I'm glad about that :)

Terrible writing, banal plot, deeply unsexy love triangle, weird racial stereotyping. If you're the kind that likes torturing themselves for the lolz, I'd say this is the book for you. Otherwise, no.
Just IMO of course, heh.
Yeah the Megan Chase book is good. But you have to do that thing that one has to do with Stacia Kane: don't let the details bog you down because sometimes they don't actually make any sense at all. But the hero is all kinds of yum, so I'd rec it based on his smexiness.

I haven't read the last one yet. I'm savouring them. I was really angry at a character in book #2 but LK completely changed my mind in #3. I think I'll read The Hathaways next.


I agree about UF and PNR. I am only reading the series I really want to finish. I am so off UF right now. It is kind of depressing.

That's exactly how I felt. Thanks for the letting me know about the prequel, Regina.
I've read 3 UFs in the past 2 months and they all sucked. I've overdosed on PNR as a result so I'm exploring other genres for a while.

I've heard good things about that series Cindy. Will maybe check it out.

The first is driving me bonkers with the narration, the second is full of cliches and the third is a run of the mill erotica.
Sigh...
