What Jia’s Been Reading, Week of August 16

What Jia’s Been Reading, Week of August 16

The problem with finishing a long, intense read is that it’s hard for me to bounce back and dive into other books. The number of books I tossed aside this past week was alarmingly high. But these are the ones I stuck with and finished. Heist Society by Ally Carter. I’m a big fan of(…)

What Sunita is reading, for the week ending August 21

My reading weeks are highly variable. Sometimes I read half a dozen (or more) novels in their entirety, sometimes I don’t make it through a single one. This was a good week. I was doing some catching up of series in preparation for new releases, as well as following up on reads that have been(…)

What Jayne is reading/watching in mid August

What Jayne is reading/watching in mid August

My entries for this feature might end up being sporadic as I often don’t know what I’m going to read next until I eye my TBR print stacks or flip through my menu screens on my ereader. I’m just as spontaneous in my movie watching, too. And once I start a book, the odds are(…)

What Janine is Reading, 8/4/11-8/20/11

I’m a slow reader, and rarely read more than a book a week. In the past two weeks, I managed to read one third of a novella, half a novel, and one book from start to finish. Here’s a recap. A Paris Affair by Adelaide Cole This erotic Harlequin Spice Brief begins with Valerie, the(…)

As promised, I’m working my way through a bunch of Indie/Self-Published reads right now. I have a few reviews in the hopper. Those should be going up in the next few weeks. A few are things I’ve liked, but nothing I’ve fallen in love with. I picked several of the current books on my Kindle(…)

Shuzluva Reading List, Week of August 13

Shuzluva Reading List, Week of August 13

Intervamption by Kristin Miller. This book is the first in the Vampires of Crimson Bay series and it’s a hot mess that I am going to expand upon in a longer review. Dylan runs ReVamp which is both a clinic and supply center for the Crimson Bay vampires and she’s dedicated her life to figuring out(…)

Reading List for Jane, Week of August 13

Reading List for Jane, Week of August 13

This is more a list of what I read last week because I don’t know what I am going to read this week.  Last week I read: Never a Mistress, No Longer a Maid by Maureen Driscoll.  This was sent to me by the author. The pitch was really good.  The book not so much.(…)

What Jia is Reading, Week of August 8

What Jia is Reading, Week of August 8

The number of books I read any given week more or less depends on their respective genres. If I’m reading YA or romances, I will burn through many books. On the other hand, if I’m reading a doorstopper epic fantasy, it can take a while and I’ll only finish one. This was a Only One(…)

What Jaclyn is Reading, Week of August 8

What Jaclyn is Reading, Week of August 8

I may be the slowest writer and least frequent reviewer of the DA crew, but I surely do read a lot. I have this funny (at least it’s funny to my husband) habit of buying more than one ebook at a time. If I’m going to go to the effort to surf the bookstore and(…)

What I Am Currently Reading …

see more Lolcats and funny pictures I was going to post about branding this morning, but in lieu of recent events, I thought it would be nice if we just shared what we are going to be reading this week or this month.   It’s the holiday time for the US readers as Thanksgiving is this(…)

Book Pimp Post #2

I am an ebook junkie. While I like to buy all of my books in ebook format if I can, I do my level best to buy the ebooks as cheap as possible. So let me share some good deals with you. I can’t vouch for the book, only the price: From Paperbackdigital.com Simply Love(…)

Ebuzz July Contest Wnners

It looks like we’ve either scared everyone away or no one has any new loves. Out of the nominations, Jayne and I have picked the following four books. We have one more month of contests and then we’ll probably go on a contest hiatus until next year. Jayne’s picks: Shelby Reed, “The Fifth Favor” Mary(…)
