I’m originally from Cleveland, Ohio and ended up in North Carolina by way of Syracuse, NY. What I wanted to do was work in theater - and, oddly enough, I am. This means I should have a day job, which could be anything from waiting tables to office management to engineers depending on who you ask what they do. I’ve become a database geek with... more »

    boy meets girl. boy breaks girl's heart. Girl grows up to be everything she wanted to be. boy comes back to girl...but has to win her back. While she's being stalked by a psycho. A great fun read, and I'd even say ideal for the beach. I got through it in three days around other life things.

    a much better intro, imo, to RAH than Stranger. Full of emotions and debating people in society...and an honest to gods plot. A good first book for an adult to sci-fi, if they haven't experienced it after they've discovered people do have sex.

    this is my first Easy Rawlins novel. Is he always this depressing?

  • Blood Brothers
    • Rated 3 stars

    Those that have read the Three Sister Island novels may recognize this plot. Three boys, born of a single line, unleash something evil on their sleepy little town for their tenth birthday. As we slowly begin to put the pieces together, three women show up in town for various reasons. Battle for the town, and their love, ensues.

  • Lord of Scoundrels (Avon Romantic Treasure)
    • Rated 3 stars

    This is a rather good starter novel to the genre, if you're looking to convince someone that romance novels aren't all trash. She's a bluestocking, he's the most villainous of scoundrels and can ruin a woman by looking at her. When she takes him on for her brother, sparks fly and they continue until he catches her...and she catches him. Well worth the read

    The SBTN ladies recommended this one...and I guess as far as contemporary novels go, it isn't bad. Once the action gets going, it goes fast, but it takes a while to get running.

  • A Monstrous Regiment of Women
    • Rated 4 stars

    This one reminds me a bit of the MR/SH novel I read earlier that took place in California. Lots going on for Mary and just a minor bit of Holmes to fill in some pieces she couldn't find. This one had a very very slow start, but it was great once I got everything going

  • Breaking Dawn
    • Rated 2 stars

    I read this more to finish the series than because its writing. There were some moments of satisfaction - such as the wedding itself - but the whole thing with her being so sick and the child was dragging. It did wrap up well, eventually, and there were some good moments...but overall it was a quick read and I enjoyed glazing over the dull moments.

    More than ever, I realize it is a YA book. Good for YA, but when you're used to better writing, its hard to go back.

    • Rated 3 stars

    Here we get to know Jack better after meeting him as a rather minor character in Dirty. HEre, he's purchased entertainment for our leading lady - a woman we want to know and enjoy her slow unveiling. This one had more pieces and you kept reading to know how all the pieces would fit back together.
