The Sex, Love, and Stiletto series is three books so far, and there will be a fourth. It’s about a group of four women in the infamous “Dating, Love, and Sex” department at Stiletto magazine, who are each, basically, Carrie Bradshaw, but each one has her own specialty when it comes to writing about romance. The series is fun and harmless, if not especially relevatory, romance. The sex scenes, especially in the first two books, are appropriately steamy and well-written. The books are short and […]
A publicist and a drummer go from friends to lovers
DISCLAIMER! I got this ARC from NetGalley in return for a fair and unbiased review. David Rivera, known as the Gentleman of Rock for his nice manners and penchant for wearing bespoke suits, is the drummer in famous rock band Schoolboy Choir. He’s in love with Thea Arsana, the band’s publicist, and has told her about his feelings, but she has a firm policy not to mix business with pleasure. That’s even before you factor in the fact that her last boyfriend was a complete bastard, […]
A librarian and a rockstar walk into a lift
DISCLAIMER! This ARC was given to me through NetGalley in return for a fair and unbiased review. WARNING. This will be a fairly spoilery review, because I’m sick with a cold and can’t be bothered to find a non-spoilery way of describing the plot. Molly Harper is a shy and timid librarian present at a glamorous celebrity party because her older half-sister is a hot shot publicist. Present at the party are the members of Schoolboy Choir, one of the hottest rock bands in the […]
“So what is right? / And what is wrong? / Gimme a sign / What is love?”
Goodreads review for the lazy (hint.. I’m the lazy): “As the lead singer of Stage Dive, Jimmy is used to getting whatever he wants, whenever he wants it, whether it’s booze, drugs, or women. However, when a PR disaster serves as a wake-up call about his life and lands him in rehab, he finds himself with Lena, a new assistant to keep him out of trouble. Lena’s not willing to take any crap from the sexy rocker and is determined to keep their relationship completely […]
Utter worthless shit
There are some novelists who, when you read them, you really feel like you get to know them. And you like them. My literary crush on Patrick Ness is well documented, but I’d also happily go for a pint with Stephen King, Sarah Waters, David Mitchell and so on. Purely based on how much I enjoy their books and how their voice comes across in it, you understand. Based on this so-called novel, I wouldn’t want to go anywhere near Edward St Aubyn. Not only […]
A Young Adult book that shows you may have to work for the Happily Ever After
Isla has been in love with Josh since their first year together at the American boarding school in Paris, but he’s been unattainable for most of her time there. Instead she’s been pining for him from a distance, hanging out with her platonic BFF Kurt (who has Aspergers’ Syndrome). Now in their final year together, it looks as if all of Isla’s dreams are coming true. Josh not only notices her, he wants to be her boyfriend! True love’s path doesn’t exactly run smoothly though, […]
