Cathy Galloway | 127 comments I finished Simply Irresistible and I would give it 4 stars. I was thinking 5 stars while I was in the middle parts, but I had some trouble with the hero in the beginning and the end was a little abrupt. Overall, a sweet fun read. Besides a pink cover, it had body parts on the cover.

Ok I'm going to pick the item on Sunday like normal


message 264: by Lina (new)

Lina I changed my pink cover one, hope that was ok. Have finished The Secret History of the Pink Carnation (Pink Carnation, #1) by Lauren Willig tonight. I give it 4 stars. Loved the humour and the blundering antics that the H/h got up to. Really likeable characters too, looking forward to the next one in the series.

Items:
pink cover
lone female
mystery

I'm going to be reading Deadly Night (Flynn Brothers, #1) by Heather Graham


message 267: by Barbara ★ (last edited Feb 12, 2012 11:38AM) (new)

Barbara ★ | 3218 comments I'm going to read A Match Made in Hell (Nicki Styx, #2) by Terri Garey . Does this also count for a green cover?


message 268: by Lisa Kay (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) I'll have to think on this one. I'll get back to you, ladies.


Turtlecollector Dennis I have finished I Only Have Fangs For You (Young Brothers, #3) by Kathy Love . It was fun to read and the main character reminded me of myself in some ways. I didn't realize at first that there were two books before it. I might have to go back and read them as well. This book has pink cover, paranormal romance, vampires, shifters, werewolves.


message 270: by Lina (new)

Lina Ok, not sure yet, but I'm considering one of these:
Midnight Bayou by Nora Roberts , Bone Crossed (Mercy Thompson, #4) by Patricia Briggs , The Laughing Corpse (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter, #2) by Laurell K. Hamilton or Shadow Game (GhostWalkers, #1) by Christine Feehan . Leaning towards Bone Crossed...


message 271: by Lisa Kay (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) I'd read Shadow Game (GhostWalkers, #1) by Christine Feehan with you, Caro. I've read it b/f, but I'd listen to it on audio, if I can get it from the library. Also, there's a "buddy read" of Bone Crossed (Mercedes Thompson, #4) by Patricia Briggs starting March 1st - but I think you know that. ☺


message 272: by Lisa Kay (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) Do you know for sure that Mercy sees a ghost in #4? Maybe we should read that. LOL! Can't make up my mind. I know Vi would start early.


message 273: by Lina (new)

Lina I'll be reading Midnight Bayou.

Cathy Galloway | 127 comments I will read Lothaire (Immortals After Dark, #12) by Kresley Cole for my ghost book.


message 275: by Lina (new)

Lina I haven't started my freespace book yet Cathy, well done you!


message 276: by Lisa Kay (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) Thanks for responding to all my Qs in another thread, CaroB! ☺

message 278: by Lisa Kay (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) I'm about 70% done with my "ghost" book, but Real Life and another "buddy read" are slowing me down.


Turtlecollector Dennis I am reading Waking Evil (Mindhunters, #2) by Kylie Brant which has a ghosthunter in it, but I am not sure yet if he actually finds a ghost. If not, my book will change.


message 280: by Lisa Kay (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) Great, Kirsten! I updated Post #277.

Don't forget off you already read another item but the book also had a ghost then you don't have to read this week. And that goes for other items too.


message 282: by Lisa Kay (last edited Feb 15, 2012 08:26PM) (new)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) Finished my ghost book. Counts for "boarding school" also.


Photobucket
★★★★✩ (Review of audiobook.) This was well narrated by MacLeod Andrews. Some people might not like his falsetto voice for the female characters, but I got used to him.

This first one in the Inn BoonsBoro Trilogy putters along at a leisurely pace, but that was fine with me. Still, it ends with a bit of an adrenalin-rush. Getting to know the residents of this small Maryland town was pleasant and the romance between Beckett and Clare was sweet. I’ll definitely listen to the next one, if only to find out what happens with the ghost.

The second in the series is due May 1, 2012.
The Next Always by Nora Roberts The Last Boyfriend by Nora Roberts


Turtlecollector Dennis Lisa Kay, I have been waiting for the second one in that series to come out ever since I read the first one. I am glad there is a date now.

I finished Waking Evil (Mindhunters, #2) by Kylie Brant . It had ghost, mystery, red cover, a couple(on cover). I liked that I couldn't figure out who was the criminal before it was revealed. I seem to be figuring them out more easily lately. I also liked that the ghost wasn't obvious until the end.


message 284: by Cathy (new)

Cathy Galloway | 127 comments I read Lothaire (Immortals After Dark, #12) by Kresley Cole for my ghost book.
I give it 4 stars. I really like the way her books all overlap and fit together. I also really like the main female character here, but I had some trouble liking the male one. He was a villain in earlier books and I didn't really see him turning over a new leaf here. He was unapologetic about past behavior and didn't prove himself any better in this book. I hope as things unfold in future books, Lothaire shows himself worthy of Elizabeth.

Lothaire has ghosts, goddess, and single man on cover.

Changed my pink book Real Vampires Hate Their Thighs (Glory St. Clair, #5) by Gerry Bartlett and my ghost book to Betrayal (Immortal #2) by Gillian Shields


message 291: by Lina (new)

Lina Finished Midnight Bayou by Nora Roberts . 4 stars. I always love Ms Roberts' standalones, her storytelling is effortless. This one was no exception. The romance was lovely, the main characters likeable and honest, and the haunted house scared me when I was reading this at bedtime.

Barbara ★ | 3218 comments I just realized that I already have ghost so I don't have to read a book this week. Though I am reading Haunting Beauty (Mists of Ireland, #1) by Erin Quinn which does fit the category.
