Katie: Sebring, contrary to what the title might lead you to believe, is not about a car. Instead, it’s about two lost souls who find redemption in each other. Patty: Two souls who have lots and lots of sex. But never in a car. And the redemption thing Katie said. Katie: I can’t believe I practically waxed poetic about a KA novel. A breakdown of some sort may be in progress. Patty, why do those men in white coats have nets? Patty: I’m just glad […]
All in the family
Patty: Confession time. I picked this one based on one fact and one fact only: a reviewer wrote “LUVD it!” and I choked on one of the M&M’s I was eating because “LUVD”? SERIOUSLY? So I jumped on my prejudice wagon and told Katie that I felt this one was RIPE for snark and gifs. But things didn’t work out quite how I expected… Katie: Shaw, our heroine, is pretty much perfect. Smart, excellent student, wealthy, polite, kind to children and old people (actually, I […]
This ain’t no disco. This ain’t no fooling around.
We’re back, bitches. Now new and improved with the PattyKates tag instead of appearing mixed in with Katie’s solo reviews. And, to get us off to an interesting start, Patty has selected King by T.M. Frazier. Patty: King is the story of a homeless amnesiac named Doe (as in, Jane Doe) and the questionable love story between her and a criminal named King. We’ll get to the part where Katie messaged me with “What fresh hell is this?!” in a bit. […]
A quote from the 101st Airborne this ain’t
NUTS by Alice Clayton has a very simple title and a very common premise, but don’t let that dissuade you from reading it. It is amusing, the characters (both primary and secondary) have a good bit of depth even if they are tropes masquerading as characters. The best parts though? It is a love letter to food, cooking and baking, AND the author has wonderfully descriptive passages that made this reader drool and want the recipes. By turns slapstick and feminist, it is a perfectly […]
Opus 63 (actually 65) in three parts: Hop, Joker and High
Opus 63 in Three Parts: Hop, Joker and High. Trixie: We are banging these out (no pun intended) in a single review and finishing this crazy ride that has been the Chaos Series. Kitty may or may not ever speak to me again. I may or may not ever speak to myself again. C’mon, Baby, Light My Fire Kitty: Fire Inside, like Kristen Ashley’s other novels, features a lack of interpersonal communication on every level, a deep-seated conviction that all problems […]
Grunt. Posture. Hump. Repeat.
Kitty: Remember how we reviewed Kristen Ashley’s Motorcycle Man a short time ago? It’s because Trixie has taken it in her head that we need to compare self-published KA to published, polished and edited KA. Personally I think it’s because she derives pleasure from the mental and emotional distress it causes me. Trixie: Rule, review: Incomplete sentences. Communicate like men in books. No articles. Few verbs. Kitty: Own the Wind, the first in the Chaos series, is pretty much the epitome of KA terribleness. Shy, […]
