I’m going to be discussing a series of books – all part of Rachel Gibson’s Writer Friends series- and, naturally, the summaries for the next books might have spoilers for the previous books: just a brief warning before we start. Also, I may have cursed once or twice because one of the heroes royally pisses me off. In Sex, Lies & Online Dating, a crime-novelist using online dating to research her next book happens to overlap with an undercover cop on the lookout for a serial-dating, serial […]
Another Historical Romance, But with Lions (Lion Lions Not Loin Lions)
The second book in Laura Lee Guhrke’s “An American Heiress in London” historical romance series, How to Lose a Duke in Ten Days, focuses on a marriage of convenience under renovation. It was rather sweet in its way, but Guhrke continues to be a library loan author for me. I will likely read the rest of the series, but I will not purchase the books. Disgraced and shamed by an involuntary sexual encounter, such is the way of things, Edie has wealth beyond the dreams of […]
This book completely ate my brain.
First of all, yes, this is essentially a five star review, but please note, it’s five stars with reservations. The five stars is almost entirely due to the first 1/3 or so of the book (and maybe a little past that) and how it absolutely took over my life. If I could, I’d probably rate the first 1/3 six or seven stars, and the rest four, but that’s obviously not possible, so here we are. The rest of the reason that I settled on five […]
An Echo in the Bone (Outlander #7) by Diana Gabaldon
First of all, don’t read this review if you haven’t read the previous six books. It won’t make any sense and it’ll spoil quite a bit. The Outlander series is fantastic, but it is not a series you can pick up in the middle. Go find the first six books (and you totally should), and come back when you’re done. I’ll wait. “True, the body’s easily maimed, and the spirit can be crippled – yet there’s that in a man that is never destroyed.” An Echo in […]
Kim Harrison finishes a series and I finish my double Cannonball
This is the thirteenth and final book in the Hollows series, and as such, a really very stupid place to start reading. Start at the beginning with Dead Witch Walking. I also shouldn’t have to tell you that this book will most likely contain spoilers for previous books in the series. You have been warned. Proceed at your own risk. Rachel Morgan’s life hasn’t exactly been peaceful since she decided to become an independent runner and start her own business with her vampire friend Ivy and the pixy Jenks. […]
Winter is coming for Toby Daye
4.5 stars This is book eight in the October Daye series, and as such, NOT a great place to start reading the books. If you want to start at the beginning, Rosemary and Rue is the book you’re looking for. It is also, by this point, completely impossible for me to review the book without some spoilers for earlier books in the series. You may therefore want to skip this review until you’ve caught up, if you’re worried about that sort of thing. You’d think things would finally be […]
