Another Historical Romance, But with Whimsy

February 4, 2014 by Mrs. Julien 7 Comments

[stunned silence followed by vociferous string of profanity-laden expostulations] That was a change of pace. Well written. It seems historical romance author Tessa Dare is going in a new direction, one more whimsiquirkilicious than I had anticipated. I have never given my Kindle the side-eye … [Read more]

This book was actually pretty freaking funny, and Cody (mostly) stays out of her own way with the text. At the … [Read more]

Badkittyuno’s Review #12: Mennonite in a Little Black Dress by Rhoda Janzen

February 3, 2014 by badkittyuno Leave a Comment

“It was after Nick had left me that I learned the lesson: its when you don't love somebody that you do notice the little things. Then you mind them.
