I’m not much of a crier… or so I like to think. I mean, honestly!! I’ve read a TON of books over the years (especially in the last three) and I can only recall a handful that affected me to full-blown tears. Oh sure, some of ’em made me teary-eyed, but I’m talking about the kind of tears that can’t be easily controlled with a dab or two. The kind that make your face crumple.
Oh yah… you know it!! Once you face does that, you’re a goner. LOL! Some even went so far as to affect me to the point that I couldn’t cry, even though my whole emotional world was flipped on it’s head (The Hunger Games trilogy, Where She Went and even the latest book that I loved… “Stolen“). They affected me so much, and yet… I just stared. As if I was in shock. No tears. I think they blew my “tear-fuse”.
My Book Reviews
Book Review – Connected (Twists of Fate) by Jolyn Palliata
Connected (Twists of Fate Book 1)
Another rock star book! Loved this!! Woooo hoooo!! I was made aware of it by both Jessica and Jane when I was searching for another bad boy book:
Jessica: Jolyn Palliata’s Connected (Twist of Fate Series) Dead rock star’s soul stuck in your body and mind, yes please!
Maryse’s Book Blog: OHHHHHH Jessica!! You said the magic word! Rock Star. HOT!!!
Jane: Something lighter, funnier, shorter. Something Rock Star-y perhaps? I have just the thing 🙂 … It’s a novella, so it’s a quick – but hot – read. You should read it. Seriously 🙂
Jamie McGuire – Providence Trilogy Reading Order
Loved the first two books!! Angels, demons and humans that are the key to something BIG!! Nina’s “normal” world will never be what it once was, once Jared makes his way into her life, but no matter what danger is lurking in the background, the underlying emotional tug of war between two very worthy men remains in the forefront. Fate plays a HUGE role in this series, in fact, it’s based on it. But what if these very characters are misunderstanding “fate” and possibly harming themselves in the process? This one is full of sweet, romantic and downright heartbreaking moments between two star-crossed lovers that were never meant to be… or were they?
Book Review – Seithe by Poppet
Seithe and Phoebe (Neuripra Book 1)
I happened upon this one on my latest “freebie list”, when a few fellow readers pointed it out, and I’m so happy they did. It turned out to be a non-stop read for me, with lots of emotional upheaval in all sorts of good and bad ways. The author wrote the main character’s perspective and thought processes so well, that I too, had all of the adrenaline rushes, experienced the same confusion and doubts, and felt her parallel feelings of immense attraction to, and desperate fear of the one that calls himself “Seithe”.
E.L. James Fifty Shades of Grey Interview on Tonight’s 20/20 Episode
Just watched the 20/20 segment with E.L. James. WOW!! She is selling a book a second… *phew* boggles the brain. How awesome!! Congratulations E.L.!! Christian is winning the world over!!
So what’d you guys think? If you missed it, I will link to it once it appears on Youtube. Definitely worth the watch. Actually, the whole show has a little “sexual intrigue” going on, I guess to go with the “Fifty Shades” theme.
For those of you who haven’t read it yet, and are curious, here is the E.L. James – Fifty Shades Trilogy Reading Order. It’s completely addictive, so much fun, and will leave you breathless! Check out my review of the first book, and you’ll see what I mean. 🙂
