WARNING: This review may trigger some reactions for people who have been violated intimately. Katie71483 here. I’m writing solo for this one. You all know that I hate read KA the way others hate watch bad television. It’s like a train wreck – you know it’s going to be awful, but you can’t look away either. Most recently I’ve been working my way through her Rock Chick series which has EIGHT!!! installments. Rock Chick Regret is book seven, and easily the most problematic in an […]
Watch out, Temple Grandin. Here comes Robbie!
Robbie Clark, all around awesome guy and a talented author and artist, is a young cousin of mine. Four years ago, I attended his graduation from Gus Grissom High School in Huntsville, Ala. Not too long afterwards, he announced his intention to write his life story. Knowing that there are amazing things going on in that mind, but that communication is often an issue, I was really excited about this prospect. By turns heartbreaking and bursting with positive energy, In My Words: Stories of an […]
This may be cause for a mutiny
So, I get this message from Patty the other day: “You won’t believe this, but the new Kristen Ashley is kinda good.” Evidently all of my pain in the past wasn’t enough for her. I mean, this is practically a double dog dare to make me read the book. Why does she do this to me??? I feel like I’m banging my head against a wall while she points and laughs. Bounty is book 7 in Kristen Ashley’s Colorado Mountain series. Or maybe book 8. […]
That not-so-fresh scent is less of a feeling
Intro: [youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=68v4g6ZjNlw&w=420&h=315] Patty: Alright. The Air That He Breathes is the story of a man who lost his wife and young son in a car accident and a woman who is now a single mom because she lost her husband in a car accident. They meet when she moves back to her hometown, accidentally runs over his dog (who didn’t die, relax) and discovers he is her new next door neighbor. GUESS WHAT HAPPENS? NO, GUESS! Katie: First impression: it’s a frakking Nicholas […]
So sweet it’s sour
Patty: We picked this one up because it was dirt cheap but still had nothing but 4 and 5 star reviews on Amazon. Glowing reviews. Long-winded reviews. Reviews peppered with lots of exclamation points. You could hear the collective sigh from readers/reviewers who waxed poetic using words like “emotion” and “amazing” and “wonderful”. Patty: Summer is an ambitious twenty-something year old who works at one of those glossy Cosmo-like magazines. She’s worked her way up to an editing position and though she’s comfortable with the world of […]
Shaken and Stirred
Pent Up by Damon Suede
NOTE: WE RETRACT ALL GUSHING THAT TAKES PLACE IN THIS REVIEW. THE AUTHOR HAS REVEALED HIMSELF TO BE A GASLIGHTING DICK DURING THE RWA MELTDOWN OF DECEMBER 2019. Patty: Remember when we read that witch-hunter/slayer/chakra book and we bitched about how it was basically a mish-mash of every PNR trope ever troped? You would think this would be like that but no. I mean, there is m/m romance, GFY, alcoholism, a social class divide, SEC regulations, paranoia, kidnapping, family dysfunction and yet somehow, it all […]
