Book Review – Birthday Girl by Penelope Douglas

Birthday Girl
<— Another epic epilogue that pretty much completes this entire angst-fest. 😉 Oh the forbidden love of it all!!! Forbidden… but within socially “accepted” measures.

Just… still… plenty to be judged by (and TICK certain people off by). But it had all the butterflies, the *throw-your-kindle* moments, and OH MY THE STEEEEEEAM. HOT. HOT. HOT!!!!!!!!! *oooooof*

And yes. I did read ’em. How could I not? 😉

Julie O: I loved Birthday Girl. No billionaires, no recluses, no weirdos, just an average man. And because he was older thank God this wasn’t a “daddy” book. read more

Book Review – Corrupt by Penelope Douglas

Corrupt
Crazy blurb *jolt*, crazy-big reader love for it and an awesome author, all in one? MINE! Upon its release I couldn’t help but squirrel from my TBR list, one-clicked it and jumped right in. Sounded dark and intriguing, and creepy, and exciting, and like it had the potential to be a totally unconventional love story.

Lisa: I’m about to start Corrupt. It sounds like a tummy twister and I’m not certain where the romance comes into it cos they don’t appear to have any L.O.V.E. for each other in the blurb. read more

Bully: The Fall Away Series
I received a seriously adamant recommendation for this book from a fellow reader (and friend) that I feel like I’ve known for years now. A frequent commenter, an avid reader, and while I don’t specifically remember her ever freaking out over a specific book, when she went nuts over this one (and then I noticed others chiming in with their own love for it), I dropped everything and ran to it. I mean, come on y’all!! She *squeeeeed*. If it makes you squee… just sayin’. 😉 read more
