I finished this on a bit of a book high, but in the three weeks since I finished it, it’s soured a bit in my memory. I think I will probably finish out both of the series she’s got currently running, and then reevaluate from there if I’ll read more of her books. Now that I’ve had some distance from A Duke By Default, it’s clear that yet again, Cole has written a book where I unabashedly love the lady and think the dude is […]
My fluffy summer read
I am pretty sure I saw this book recommended on Twitter or something similar, something associated with CBR. I don’t read very much romance, but always want to try something new to me and this seemed like a good summer fluff book. This book was so fun! The Rosie Project was published in 2013, so I assume lots of people have already read this and I am just late, but I am glad to have found it now. Our lead is an Australian genetics professor […]
Double cannonball with a kissing book.
Cat Sebastian is now six for six. Not a stinker among her published books so far (though to be fair, I haven’t *loved* all of them (Unmasked by the Marquess was fun, but didn’t hit me in my swooners). A Gentleman Never Keeps Score, though saddled with a truly execrable cover*, features more of what I love about her books: two fully realized leads who have good chemistry, and who are kept apart not by asinine plot machinations and outside forces, but by character flaws […]
The one without the series’ main character.
I have liked this book against my will. I am a completionist, so I will be finishing this series, even though it is ALL OVER THE PLACE, all caps well deserved. But I put off reading this book for a long time because it seemed like SJM was taking me on a detour to a country I knew nothing about with characters I didn’t know, and Chowl (who I really grew to dislike over the course of the first four books), and I was resentful […]
Remember when we used to be friends?
PATTY: Say it. Admit it. SAY IT. KATIE: FINE. Fine. Kristen Ashley’s FOR YOU is actually fine, maybe even edging into decent/good. It’s the first book in her ‘Burg series, and if someone sent you this book to read with nothing identifying who wrote it, you’d probably think it’s an okay romantic suspense novel even if it is a little wordy. PATTY: February Owens and Alec Colton were once upon a time a dream couple. The *something* happened and February broke up with Colton and […]
Some small fumbles, but the good outweighs the bad. #CBRBingo
Project: Catch Up On Review Backlog, review #9 out of 16 So basically, my thoughts on this book are that it made some entry level mistakes, but I enjoyed myself anyway, because it also did some things I really liked. I’ve been having trouble buckling down to actually write this review, so I’ll do what I always do when that happens. Wait 5,000 years to review it and then do a pro/con list. Let’s start with the stuff I didn’t like about it first, so […]
