Before I ever got to my next-up list above I made a good dent in my stash of Irene Hannon books, and read the following:
The Best Gift,
Gift from the Heart,
The Unexpected Gift, and
The Heart Remembers. I enjoyed the first three, a trilogy about sisters who're left an inheritance from their aunt but must fulfill certain conditions to claim it. I felt
The Heart Remembers was meh and gave it two stars; there were a few scenes that were peculiar to Ms Hannon's writing that I did not enjoy.
Back to my list: I liked
Bath Tangle, I gave up on
Broken Angel very early (at 13%; I don't think post-apocalypse is my thing!), and
The Color of Heaven was cute but very
Lifetime Movie Network-ish (plus a big dose of bad theology, IMO).
After all this, I also completed
Sylvester (by Georgette Heyer), which reminded me of Pride and Prejudice, and that can
never be a bad thing
Everything on my new next-up list is from 2011 purchases:
Real Life & Liars by Kristina Riggle,
Hemlock Lake by Carolyn J Rose and, because I'm presently on a
Janet King binge and wanted to read a mystery/thriller set in Australia, I also put
Sleight Malice by Vicki Tyley on the list.
Off I go ...
