But I had to stop reading because the author won't let Stephanie grow up...or even grow in skills beyond a certain point. Plus, I hate unresolved "love triangles". For the rest, I have to do a spoiler...so if you don't want certain plot "twists" exposed, don't click the "Spoiler" button (or read below, if you're on the mobile site - which apparently doesn't handle the Spoiler tags right): Spoiler:

About Book 12 Spoiler:
I will say I believe 15-19 are Ghostwritten. They do not have JE's style to them. It similar but if you look you will notice subtle differences in the writing style. Last edited by Blossom; 06-29-2013 at 10:28 PM. |

You guys lasted with the Plum series longer than I did. They became library reads, then library skims for me before 12. I don't think I've even bothered looking at any sense.
Spoiler:
I realize these books are not marketed as romances, so to an extent she gets a pass on this. But I loathe love triangles to begin with and will never understand why authors write them. Sure they get lots of free publicity with the “team guy 1’s name” and “team guy 2” stuff, but they're just asking half their readership to be disappointed. But that’s a rant for another day |

I blame the Kobo codes and other sales for my buying spree this week
Actually for as much time as I spent browsing at Kobo and new-to-me authors' websites, I didn't buy very much. I looked at a whole lot! I kept back a few codes to use tomorrow when the new batch of Harlequins becomes available. |

All my buys this week were with Kobo codes, I definitely made up for zero buys last week! Hot Ink by Ranae Rose Innocent Ink by Ranae Rose Rough Around the Edges by Ranae Rose All My Tomorrows by Colette Saucier Just What He Wanted by HelenKay Dimon We Are Made of Stardust by Mimi Strong (and have already read it!) NYC Angels: An Explosive Reunion by Alison Roberts Damaged 2 by H.M. Ward Seduction and Snacks by Tara Sivec Instant Attraction by Jill Shalvis Neanderthal Seeks Human by Penny Reid Still no Tangled Oh, and Kobo is going to credit me on that non-downloadable book, so that's nice. |

I blame it on Kobo codes, that and I got a $25 gift card too so I figure I did really well, all things considered.
The first 5 books were the only ones not on my wishlist [I'm trying very hard to cut back on those!] --Letting Go – Jennifer Foor --Consequences – Althea Romig --Ruining Me – Nicole Reed --Demanding Ransom – Megan Squires --Limits – Liz Reinhardt Conquer Your Love – J.C. Reed Subject to Change – Alessandra Thomas The Impact of You – Kendall Ryan Playing for Keeps – Emma Hart Diamond Girl – Andrea Smith Love Plus One – Andrea Smith Nearly Broken - Devon Ashley Flat Out Matt – Jessica Park More – Clare James Rock Stars Do It [all 3 books in Series] – Jasinda Wilder Falling Into Us – Jasinda Wilder Real Ugly – C.M. Stunich Finding Never – C.M. Stunich [had the 1st=5star, read this, 5 star] Keeping Never – C.M. Stunich [read, 5 star] Fallen Crest High – Tijan 22 books = $28ish |

Thanks to Kobo coupons and the amazing MindWarp. I with almost no money was able to get 11 books! The 12th one I bought on Friday.
As you can see all but the last one was under $2. The Final prices with coupons.
Anna Eberhardt is also known as Tiffany White, which someone on here highly recommended to me. Last edited by Blossom; 06-30-2013 at 02:08 PM. |
