I just finished reading milan ……. And can i say Fantasteeek !!! In fact I was more than a little disappointed that it was a novella instead of a proper full novel. I am actually curious as to why she went with the novella route with this one as the characters were wonderfully etched out and there was enough material and conflict for another couple of hundred pages. The turner series was a hit and a miss for me, but now I am super excited about the new series after reading this one. But again, i would have loved to spend more time with hugo and serena.

Country Mouse sounds interesting. I was already thinking of trying it, so I’m glad Sarah enjoyed it. Are we likely to see the promised review of Scrap Metal from April’s recommended reads, or is poor Sarah buried in end-of-spring-semester craziness?

@Hannah E.: Yes, I am, but should be done next Wednesday, so will be writing it next week. Promise!

Country Mouse is going to be my next purchase. I just read the Dark Soul books and fell in love with Aleksandr’s writing. I know Sunita was reading them for review (Book 1 has already been posted). Is she going to do reviews for the rest of the series? I’m curious to hear what she thought of them as a whole.

These lists just hightlight my total lack of self-restraint when it comes to books.

@Jenny Lyn: I am definitely reviewing the rest of Dark Soul, hopefully in the next week! I’m behind, and I do apologize. I am really enjoying the series; I briefly talked about Dark Soul Vol. 2 in . “>this post.

Sarah Morgan and Karina Bliss have books out this month, or is it next month? I know I got them yesterday at Harlequin’s site because they publish their ebooks one month in advance. Anyway, those are my recs even if it’s the wrong month. S. Morgan’s book is a secret baby story, though, but it’s a sequel to Once a Ferrara Wife, so win some, lose some… Happy reading everyone!

@Brie: Karina Bliss and Sarah Morgan’s books are available right now? SOLD.
