Now I am deciding whether to read "Beautiful Bastard" or "Wallbanger" next. I really don't like making personal recommendations because all our tastes are so different and vary at different times but I so love hearing all of yours. |

My problem reading historicals that are New School is the language is often too modern. I just can't read a book that doesn't have the correct dialogue for that period or uses modern sayings but I will give a author a try once or twice before I stop reading them. |

The other one I really liked of hers is Unlocked, which is a novella sitting sort of midway in the Turner series. Quote:
Wallbanger was just OK for me; it was cute and funny, but it just went on and on, to me. But I loved Clive the cat! |

And thank you for the heads up on If You Stay, I've had it on my watch list for awhile now and it didn't show up this morning when I checked, but lo and behold there it is now. Off to buy it and back to my Thoughtless addiction! |

I have Wallbanger on my Kindle but the first chapter didn't draw me in. I think it's a book you need to be in the mood for. I know it was a Twilight fanfic. |

Right now it's The Windflower and Rock Chick Reckoning. I may need a light fluffy Traditional Regency after this. |

The Rock Chick series is currently still Lendable so you can get it through Lendle if you have a Amazon U.S. account. That's how I've been reading them. I got them on loan from the KA Loan thread on the Amazon Romance Forum. Soon she plans to I think let a publisher have them. They do need alot of cleaning up before going to print. |

I actually enjoyed listening to your Stephanie Plum series. Just listened to the first two and laughed a lot. So thank you. Too bad we don't have a Romance audiobook thread. |

Feel free to talk about Romance audiobooks alot of us listen to them. Xe Sands is another favorite narrator of mine. I do have J.D Robb first two books and I will listen to them sometime this year. I have audiobook Recommendation. Julie Ann Walker's Hell on Wheels. There is only one but Abby Craden does a great job. I keep pestering DANL to add the others in the series. It's romantic suspense and it a 5 star for me. Hmm I'm not sure I have a reading pattern. I just read one till I feel like I should stop there for the night then move on to the other one if I feel I can still read. Some nights I am just not into a historical romance so I switch over to something else. I read by Moods. I think there is nothing worse than reading a book when you're not in the mood for it. I don't know how professional reviewers do it. You wont enjoy it as much and you take something wrong. I use to think I had to finish every book but I've grown out of that. I have too many books to read in so little of time. I have been known to read 7 at a time but that's usually when I can't find a book to keep my interests. 3 is the standard for me currently. Rock Chick series order
The first one is very Stephanie Plum like. The other follow a similar formula but she builds her own world. |
