So I am fabulous at reading things out of order. I picked up the most recent book in this series a while back, but just now got around to reading the first in the series. I loved it! Kitty is your typical werewolf who was bitten and now transforms on the full moon every [...]

I love The Alchemist. It is one of the best books I have ever read (or re-read). I have never read anything else by Coelho (how do you pronounce his name…I have always wondered) until Brida. I was feeling like something a little bit more philosophical and reflective so I picked it up at [...]

I grabbed this because I like Harrison’s adult books. I think this series could grow on me, but I have to say that it could have been tighter. It is about a girl who is sort of dead. She should be completely dead, but she stole the amulet of the reaper who killed her [...]

I love PCW and have to say that this book rocked. It tells about a world where magic is real, but it is much like the wild west, frontier time. Eff is a 13th child, the twin of a 7th son of a 7th son (meaning she is horribly unlucky, while her twin brother [...]

Then Comes Seduction by Mary Balogh

In the second book of the Huxtable quartet, Balogh tells the story of Katherine Huxtable. None of these stories is very tame and this one is no exception. With scandals flying, Kate manages to snare a former rake. There is a large element of gambling, stakes, etc in this book, but not in the [...]
