    “Really enjoyed this addition to the Chet and Bernie mysteries. Chet can be such a crack-up. This wasn't as much of a roller coaster ride as the first book but still a solid fun read. The audio version was great.”

    “Bruce Coville is one great children's writer. Easy to read, short (about 100 pages) and page turning caliber. This was a tale with a plot and a wonderful ending. Not quite as good as the first Coville book I read but really great fun.”

      bogiewine: LOL... I am definitely one of those people! But I'm also one not to risk further investment if a book 1 doesn't grab me. So GTK then. It picks up at book 3? Maybe I should start with something else by her then to get a better sense. It looks like there are some stand-alones.

        Have you read anything by Zoe Archer? She has two sci fi romances that I think I'll read soonish. They're shorter Carina Press books and I'm in this stupid reading slump, so I'm trying shorter, more action filled romances.

        That's a good rule, but not one I've stuck to. I'm such a collector I always want all the books, especially if they're on sale. :-D Of course that doesn't mean I've actually read many book twos, threes, etc... of the series I've started. *sigh* Lol! It definitely is an addiction and I'm right there with you. My name is Liz, and I'm a bookaholic! :)

    I love to read just about everything. Kahlil Gibran, Dean Koontz, Philippa Gregory, David Moody and Jonathan Maberry. I seem to be in a dystopian mood lately. There is soo many books to read and not enough time. I'm usually reading two to three books at a time. The feel of a book, the smell and...
