This Chick Read: The Witch’s Daughter by Paula Brackston

I had been sent the pre-release copy of the sequel to this book by St. Martin’s Press (The Return of the Witch) and realized that I hadn’t yet read the 1st book in the series, The Witch’s Daughter.  It had been on my wish list on my Overdrive app, so I checked it out, reading it while the NFL playoffs played in the background Continue reading “This Chick Read: The Witch’s Daughter by Paula Brackston”

This Chick Read: Sebring by Kristen Ashley

Kristen Ashley is one of my favorite romance writers because her heroines are always kick ass and her men are always alpha males.  Can that get a little predictable?  Yes.  However, these men in The Unfinished Hero series are not your typical hero’s.  These men are lawless Continue reading “This Chick Read: Sebring by Kristen Ashley”

#readinto16 This Chick is Reading: Cast in Honor by Michelle Sagara

 I was reading my morning blog by Cleopatra Loves Books and she referenced a challenge by another blogger BookerTalk to post a brief note about the book you were reading as 2016 started.  I will confess.  I fell asleep early, but had just started reading Michelle Sagara’s Cast in Honor, which is book #11 in the Chronicles of Elantra series.  I am also supposed to include a photo of myself reading the book, but since I’m reading it on my IPad, here is the artwork from the cover.

I challenge you all to also post a brief mention on your blog about what book you are reading as the New Year starts.  Tweet about it.  Let’s start a revolution! #readinto16. I’ll let you know my thoughts on this book in a few days.

Cheers, and Happy New Year!

The Hot Chicks Who Read dish on Sara Gruen’s At the Waters Edge

I am in a book club called the Hot Chicks Who Read.  I laugh as I write that because, if you asked any one of us if we were hot chicks, we’d say, No! It’s just a fun title, and it is.  Privately, however, I think each of us would agree, yeah, we’re hot, but we’ll laugh as we say it.  The group of 30-60 year olds meet every six weeks or so, and dish on a book we’ve picked for that months meeting.  Our choice of books have had hits and misses, but the one thing all of the choices have had in common is that the group of us have probably enjoyed talking about the books more than we have had actually reading them.
