So, I got this message from Mrs. Julien, she who calls herself Prolixity, “Miss Katie, would you like to borrow a book?” My curiosity was immediately piqued. Obviously. My reply was instant, “Of course!” That is how I came to read The Deal by Elle Kennedy. It also came with this ringing endorsement, “[emmalita] and I enjoyed it very much.” How could I NOT read it at this point? Disclaimer: I didn’t truly understand what this New Adult business was all about. It just seemed […]
Someone’s got a secret…
…but I’LL never tell. Xoxo Annwyl the Bloody has problems. She can’t decide if her terrible name or her homicidal half-brother is a bigger pain in the ass. I’m leaning toward the former, if only because it sounds like she has serious problems with her cycle. In actuality, it’s probably her brother since he and his men are always trying to kill her. In fact, that’s the true source of “the Bloody” portion of her name – more often than not she’s got the blood […]
It’s getting hot in here (so hot!)
WARNING: Alisha Rai’s GLUTTON FOR PLEASURE is an erotic romance with a higher percentage of scorching hot sex scenes than your usual romance novel. As in, probably 60-70% sex scene. If that is not what you’re looking for, put the book down and back far away, far, far, away. You may want to find one of those silver fire suits or asbestos gloves at the very least. This book will scorch your fingers right off. Devi is the youngest of three sisters from an Indian […]
I really should leave well enough alone
Since my writing partner/snark enabler is on an island in the Caribbean for a month, I’m on my own for writing reviews. At first I thought I’d just wait it out and start reviewing again when she gets back from paradise, but my fingers have been itching to type and my mind starts writing reviews before I even finish the book. Evidently Cannonball Read can become an addiction. Who knew? On to the important part of today’s entry: I thought Susan Johnson’s Love Storm was […]
In which Patty and Katie are scarred for life.
Katistasia: Our slogan should be “Reading crap so you don’t have to since 2015.” Oh, friends. We did something SO STUPID. We decided to read EL James’ Grey. It seemed like an excellent opportunity for snark. Evidently I’ve subjected us to 450 pages of lip biting. Pattistasia: I read the acknowledgements and already hate you. Katistasia: Not nearly as much as I hate myself. I NEED TO GOUGE MY EYES OUT. Seriously though, how can you claim to have written this especially for the fans […]
Rhys Ford needs a hug. Patty and Katie are whimpering in the corner.
Katharine: Rhys Ford emailed me a couple of weeks ago and asked if Patty and I would be interested in reviewing an ARC of her new book, Ink and Shadows. We said, “OF COURSE.” Like there was a question there or something. Whatevs. She did warn us up front that it was a bit of a departure, but I wasn’t really expecting this. Patricia: OK. I really think Rhys Ford needs a hug. Katie, you are familiar with human feeling things, hug her. Please. Omg […]
