About specific books.
Or I was. Vanessa Jaye’s Felicity Stripped Bare just came out from Samhain, so I picked it up. She’s been teasing us with little pieces on her blog for a while now. Azteclady has already done a review here. Hopefully, I’ll be reading it tonight. Aside from Jordan Summers’s RED (I love that cover), I’m […]
I loved it. I read quite a few HPs this weekend, but this was easily, easily, easily the best. Unrequited love is one of my favorite themes, and this one just dealt it out like crazy. I wasn’t too thrilled with the last Helen Brooks I read (THE BILLIONAIRE’S VIRGIN BRIDE) but this one had […]
Do any others have a June 24 release? I know there are a ton more coming out July 1st. *whimpers*
I am a raging beeeyotch. I don’t really like myself that way. So I’ll probably start downing more again. Strange, but I really thought I’d be more mellow. Maybe it’s just a withdrawal phase? I’m finishing copyedits/revisions for Demon Bound (new beginning, new ending, various stuff throughout) which I have to mail out Wednesday, so […]
I talked about this last year, and listed a few of my favorite (paranormal) novellas — the kind of novella that I loved so much, I’d have bought the anthology just for that, and thought it was worth the money. They were: “Fairies Make Wishes, Too†by Maggie Shayne — in A SPRINKLE OF FAIRY […]
How? It’s not like my apartment is all that huge. And the cover is bright orange. WTF? I’m at a freaking good part, too! Grr. I’ve also lost Magic Bites and Magic Burns, which makes me grr! because I want to quote a few things out of them. Again I ask How could they be […]
…excuse me while I bawl like a baby. Hans Christian Andersen’s The Story of a Mother, illustrated here at scans_daily. The artwork alone is worth a look. Echo, don’t read this. Really.
First — I just noticed that Anne Bishop has the cover up for THE SHADOW QUEEN. w00t! There are no words for how much I’m looking forward to this book. There’s already a sequel planned, so I’m hoping that it will have the same kind of sweeping, epic-ish story that the original trilogy did. But […]
WARNING: This post contains spoilers about the endings of several horror movies/graphic novels/books. A review at the Book Smugglers reminded me that I had this post in my drafts. I’ve been thinking about horror and happy endings since I read the two widely different reviews of the movie THE STRANGERS at Pajiba and Roger Ebert. […]
Okay, okay. So it’s been a while since I said I was finishing Through the Veil and for a while I was thinking, OMG, it’s taking me a long time to get into this book, which isn’t usually the case with Shiloh Walker’s books (usually I can fall right into them) but here’s what happened: […]
I didn’t love love the first book, but it was the kind of book I’m willing to give another try. Covers like this just make it easier 🙂
THE DARKEST KISS by Gena Showalter This is the second book in the Lords of the Underworld series (or third, if you count the novella, which I (eek!) haven’t read yet.) I liked the first book quite a bit, particularly the setup and the mythology behind it. I’ve read reviews that mentioned the number of […]
 Anyone heard any early buzz on these? What upcoming debuts have caught your eye? NIGHTKEEPERS by Jessica Andersen The Mayan doomsday prophecy states that the world will end on December 21, 2012. The NOVELS OF THE FINAL PROPHECY tell of the ancient myths that come to life in the last four years before that end-date, […]
I am on page 44 of THE GREEK TYCOON’S UNEXPECTED WIFE by Annie West. I picked it out of the others on the rack because I enjoyed Annie West’s HIS FOR THE TAKING, which had a male lead who wasn’t a complete jerk. But in this one, he has just decided that the reason the […]
I noticed that Amazon has the next Joanna Bourne cover up. A woman, and it reminds me very much of the cover to The Serpent Prince by Elizabeth Hoyt (which I also lurved madly, both book and cover). So of course I think: w00t! New poll for blog readers whilst they wait for my return […]
