How did you get the ARC for "Highlander Most Wanted"? Please don't tell me anything about it if I can't get my own copy... Bad enough I have to wait until March.

[Stacia (the 2010 club)]

It took me a while to get into the book but I think that was because my mood wasn't there for HR. Now that I'm past the halfway point, I'm really enjoying it. I might be gearing up to read at least a few HR's in the near future.

I'm back on a UF/PNR kick at the moment, and a lot of YA. After reading too many contemp romances which were awful, I made like a turtle and went back inside my comfort zone.

Starting tonight.

[Kay]

I got approved through Edelweiss for ....which surprises me b/c Netgalley always denies me! So, my first request through Edelweiss and I get approved.

I'm currently reading it now and it is really good! I'll probably be done tonight.

[Leea]

I've always wanted to read that, Stacia. It's one of those books thats been on TBR list forever. You'll have to tell me how it is. Crap, I'd totally crash your read and jump in and read it with you but I'm over committed as it is. Ugh!

Lisa, A few of us got it on Netgalley.com

I hope you like Pleasure Unbound! I loved it when I was in my PNR phase. I couldn't get into the author's new series though...but I love Demonica and the sex demons. They are damn hot!

The same with me, Kay. I loved the Demonica series (although the books got less interesting for me as the series moved along) and couldn't get into the new series. I guess you can't win them all!

[Stacia (the 2010 club)]

Good to hear! I also heard there's magical sperm happening?

[Kay]

DG...for me that is just how I feel about PNR. Some I can really connect with, others just feel cheesy. But Demonica and Immortals After Dark really do it for me! =)

Stacia...yes! The sperm is super orgasmically (is this even a word. LOL) magical!

[D.G.]

LOL, yes there is super smexy sperm. But they are sex demons so it makes sense, LOL!

[Krissy]

I am about halfway done with Hopefully I will finish it tonight.

[Regina]

NG and edelweis can be random. I have been denied before and then emailed the author or publisher and gotten the book. I have been denied and subsequently approved. So weird.

Wendy about Quintana ... You all know I like my men strong but not possessive but there is something very very sexy about a jealous Finnikin. Even if jt is unreasonable. I can't wait to read more tonight! It is 9:42 and I am only now on a train to to home. :(

I am replying via the app so I so I can't see what books you all are reading.

This is such a fun and humorous series. I hope the author will write more.

[Kay]

Regina, I'm sorry you're just now going home :(

[Regina]

Thanks kay. :) okay I've been at work too long (no longer on the app on the Internet) but that cover is yummy.

[Kay]

Yeah, I don't like using the app on my phone either or the mobile web. I find the desktop version so much easier to use on my phone. Hopefully, they will improve their app someday.

Yes, the cover is yummy.

Are you guilty of buying books based solely on the covers sometimes? I know I am! LOL

[Kay]

I definitely look at a cover first before reading its synopsis. But I'm not a full on cover snob bc I'll still give horrible covers a chance if the reviews are good.

Oh, yes. What I meant is that I've flipped and gone the other way...bought a book that might not have had a plot that interested me because of the hottie on the cover! LOL

[Kay]

Hahah....I think I did that with ...love the cover but the story was just ok.

[Petula]

I have just finished. A Warrior for Christmas by Beth Trissel. But I can't find it on here to leave a review.
It was a good sweet romance. The hero has been "rescued" from captivity and is struggling to restrain his warriors instincts when someone is setting their sights on the lady he wants. She is worried her chances of marriage are limited because she is deaf. A good christmas story

[Heather]

Just finished "On the Island" by Tracy Garvis Graves. It was a good book, but very basic writing that would have been better if she was more descriptive and came up with more unique experiences for the two main characters. I was surprised I couldn't find one bad review on this book. It makes me wonder if my standards are set too high for a five star book.

[Petula]

I must admit I would rather not comment at all if I don't like a book. I think it dates back to my mum always saying. If you can't say something nice say nothing at all.

[Kay]

I finished and loved it. Book 3 seems so far away.

We can't all like the same books and all of our standards are different. I'm more of an emotional rater. Some books with earth shattering writing may not do it for me if I feel nothing for the characters. I connected with the characters and story in On the Island so I rated it really high.

[Stacia (the 2010 club)]

So true Kay. I actually really liked On The Island because I'd been wanting to read an interesting 'stranded on an island' book and the couple with the theme that I'd tried before were awful so it made this book stand out for me...but I completely understand what it's like to dislike a book that everyone else seems to love. In fact, it seems to happen more often than not for me. There's one book out right now that so many of my friends have rated 5 stars and I gave it a huge, resounding 1 star because I thought it sucked big time.

Almost halfway into and I'm really enjoying it. I've missed my cheesy pnr...this one's got some great humor too.

Also still working on and about to start before we see the movie this weekend.

[Kay]

Stacia, I'm glad you're enjoying Pleasure Unbound. I love the snarkiness in those books. Let us know what you think about the semen. LOL

I'm still searching for my next read...I'm hoping to find a fun "secret baby" themed book. Regina suggested a Virgin River book but I'm not caught up on VR yet and I don't want to skip ahead.

[Stacia (the 2010 club)]

The semen is kind of awesome, heh.

Forgot to mention that I finally finished and ended up enjoying it once I got used to the author's style.

[Leea]

I hate when I don't get Notifications for this thread and I forget to check it. Ugh!

I'm so glad your enjoying Pleasure Unbound, lol! I remember hearing about that orgasmic sperm. Gotta love PNR!!

I've half way through , heavy subject matter but it's good.

[Aoibhínn]

I've finished reading by Sophie Kinsella yesterday. The first half of the book was quite good but I got a bit bored with it during the second half. The book was well-written and it had a lot of extremely funny scenes in it. However, the plot was very predictable. I made a guess when I was at 5% of the way in about how this book would end and I figured it out exactly! The author is not very good at adding "twists and turns" into her plots, which is the main reason I haven't picked up a book by this author for ten years. I thought the author would have learned something in all that time but apparently not!
My full review is here: http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/...


Now I'm a few chapters into by Christopher Moore.

[Regina]

I have never read any Sophie Kinsella and always wondered about her or that genre.

It seems we are all kinda fascinated with the idea of orgasmic sperm. LOL. On that note, I am enjoying

I am doing a re-read of Hobbit (but have been for about 4 months) as I am reading it to my 9 year old and we rarely have time to sit down and read. The movie is only the first half of the book though (I think ... as there are 2 movies, right?), so you don't have to finish it all before you go see it. :)

[Leea]

Oh, how fun Regina. I cannot wait to read Harry potter and Lord of the Rings with Ethan and Garrett.

My book worm, Ethan walking home from school... (view spoiler)[ (hide spoiler)]

I mean, he would not stop reading and almost stepped out in front of a car... He then decide to read instead of watching TV with his brother.

[Heather]

I totally understand that everyone has their own opinions and ideas of what makes a good book. I wasn't trying to offend anyone, I was just giving my opinion... I thought that's what this site was for.. I sincerely apologize. To each their own.

[Stacia (the 2010 club)]

No offense taken. I was agreeing with you and I think Kay was too. :) We've all been in that same place where we don't like something that's popular, so we understand.

Your opinion is welcome. I go on all the time about books I don't like.

Finished and was surprised by how much I liked it. I was having warm BDB type fuzzies. It was that cheesy, sexy, type of fun.

[Kay]

Stacia, I'm glad you enjoyed Pleasure Unbound. Will you continue with the series? I think Wraith's book was really fun for me.

I found a secret baby book to read... .

[Jen (at last!)]

I just finished for my Outlander Challenge. I think I'm going to read now.

Leea, that picture is sooo cute!!!

Yes, I agree with Jen....so cute.

[Leea]

Crud, the outlander challenge. I still need to see if any of the books I've read fill the 4 spots I have empty.

Judith mcNaught is great! How did you like her writing?

[Regina]

I am mixing in for a challenge.

[Caitlyn]

I have nearly finished , I have been reading it slowly because I like it so much and don't want to end and also cause I've cried so frequently throughout it so far.
I finished two short stories, with shifters, sexy times and snark. Love it.

[Leea]

I'm dying to hear what you thought of the Bronze Horseman?

Which reminds me... WENDY YOU NEED TO READ IT! Ha!

[Angie Elle]

[Susan]

I am reading A Change of Fortune by Jen Turano.

[Heather]

Ok what is the Outlander Challenge and how do I join it?

[[deleted user]]

Just finished it. Enjoyed the whole series very much. I am also hoping she writes more. I would like to see Tristan's story(the other Devine brother.

[Krissy]
