Review: I’ve Got Your Number by Sophie Kinsella
THINGS TO DO BEFORE WEDDING 1. Become expert on Greek philosophy. 2. Memorize Robert Burns poems. 3. Learn long Scrabble words. 4. Remember: am HYPOCHONDRIAC. 5. Beef stroganoff: Get to like. (Hypnosis?) Sophie Kinsella is well known for her Shopaholic series and overall chick lit style. Chick lit usually isn’t my thing because you miss [...]
Review: The Wild Road by Marjorie M. Liu
I know I’ve said in the past that the Dirk & Steele series is best read in order, but if you’re looking to jump into the middle of it, this is the book to do it with. It fits in with the overall world easily, but it doesn’t focus much on the actual Dirk & [...]
Review: The Last Twilight by Marjorie M. Liu
This book was an action packed, thrilling read. The first chapter started the book out with a bang and easily captured my attention. Rikki, the heroine, is a virus hunter for the CDC. She’s sent to Zaire on a hush-hush mission to identify an extremely dangerous virus. She goes in blind, with no clue about [...]
Review: A Brush of Darkness by Allison Pang
I had heard excellent things about A Brush of Darkness by Allison Pang and it turns out that everyone was right. I loved it! I was quite impressed with the fresh and complex world Pang created. The reader is dropped directly into the story and left to figure things out without any excessive infodumps. That style [...]
Review: Fifty Shades Freed by E.L. James + Giveaway
In late 2011, author E.L. James took romance readers by surprise with the first two books of her Fifty Shades trilogy. I cannot remember the last time two books have been so hyped when I had not previously even heard of the author or the titles. Fifty, aka Christian Grey, was one of the most talked [...]
Review: A Note in the Margin by Isabelle Rowan
Clicking around online a few weeks ago, another blog mentioned A Note in the Margin and raved about it. A M/M genre book, it has been out since 2009 and after reading it, I absolutely had to write a review in case there are others out there who may have missed this wonderful book. This [...]
Review: Moonlight in the Morning by Jude Deveraux
Jude Deveraux is one of those authors that I see everywhere. For the 15+ years I have been reading romance I do not think a month goes by that I am not shown one her books. I have never been too compelled to pick one up and read it because, well honestly, the covers are [...]
Review: The Shadow Reader by Sandy Williams
This book turned out to be quite the surprise. I can’t think of the last time I’ve gone from completely disliking a book to practically inhaling it. When I first picked up The Shadow Reader, I made it to page 30 before I finally gave up and set it aside. It was over a month [...]
Review: The Real Werewives of Vampire County – Anthology
This was my first time reading works by these authors, with the exception of Tami Dane, whose book Blood of Eden I reviewed a few weeks ago on FVBR. For one of the authors – Angie Fox – it will not be my last … the others didn’t fare as well. Reviews are in the [...]
