Strangers: Ellora’s Cave
This was good!! Really good. Buuttt… I was able to put it down and go to sleep without dreaming about them. For the most part, I didn’t get to “live” them. Though this certainly all changed with the last quarter. WOW! I totally became one with the book at that point. I could feel everything and it was a whirlwind of a hot mess! So while I enjoyed it in it’s entirety, the beginning and the end were what truly got me (the middle… left me irritated).

Currently Reading: Strangers by Barbara Elsborg
Strangers: Ellora’s Cave
Despite my “wonky work week” (which will actually be stretching into two wonky work weeks by the looks of it), I have still been reading. Never fear!! Wonky works weeks don’t mean I’ll be missing in action or anything (just a bit more erratic then usual 😉 ) . In all actuality, my “overtime” weeks find me reading the most as I desperately need a book to help me unwind.
Now of course, I’m not racing through the books like I normally do, but I’m happily reading one right now that I just started and will probably finish tonight (if it’s good enough, that is, to keep me up late).
Book Review – Fitzwilliam Darcy, Rock Star by Heather Lynn Rigaud
Fitzwilliam Darcy, Rock Star
Enjoyable… but Fitz (and friends) didn’t rock my world. It appeared to have everything necessary for a romance story, but for some reason, I didn’t connect with any of the characters enough to keep me up all night reading. There was that initial “meeting” where everyone feels that certain “something”. Then the getting close, the crushing, and of course… the eventual drama over numerous (and I mean numerous) misunderstandings. Sounds about right… right? But for the most part, it was fast, but it wasn’t furious. Nothing deep, nothing that tore my heart apart, nothing that I became a part of.
For Those Still Waiting to Read Effortless by S.C. Stephens…
UPDATE FEBRUARY 26th 2012 ——> The Effortless ebook is ready!!! and book #1 (Thoughtless) is ALSO available in e-book format as we speak!!
—————
A quick note to all my fellow Kellan-obsessed readers 🙂
We’re still waiting for Effortless (book #2 in the Thoughtless series) to show up on Kindle and Nook and the other bookstores. It appears to still be in “editing” for eventual sale.
In the meantime, I’ve found out that it is still available in full format, on Fictionpress (not pretty like a book, but still readable 😉 )
Book Review – Rock Star’s Girl by J. F. Kristin
Rock Star’s Girl (A Hollywood Dating Story Book 1)
Another amazing deal!!! A bargain priced e-book find that literally rocked my world. Okay, granted. Not “rocked my world” as in what’s on my latest “favorites” list, but it rocked me nonetheless. Definitely worth the read. Fun, tumultuous and shocking (oh yes! There’s even an “it’s not you, it’s me” moment… or two). I was aghast!! Offended!! Flabbergasted. Heartbroken… and as a reader… excited to be all of those things!
