[...] an erotic book. Whether it was intended to be, I don’t know. I don’t think so, though Janine from Dear Author disagreed. Mind, the majority of LDS readers who are online don’t get the heavy sexual [...]

I would have enjoyed Villette a lot more if the anti-Catholicism had been a little less out of control. It pretty much killed my Jane Eyre love, too.

I finally read Evanovich’s Fearless Fourteen. I bought it when it came out and put it on my TBR pile because I had heard some of the negative reviews and didn’t want to be disappointed.

I really enjoyed it. I love the give and take between Stephenie and Ranger and Joe and there wasn’t tons of it in this book. But I really enjoyed it and I believe that the series will stay an autobuy for me.

Another one I read a few days ago was NO CHOICE BUT SEDUCTION by Johanna Lindsey. This one featured Boyd Anderson so you got to see the Mallorys again. I love the Mallorys. Especially James and Anthony. ;)

I recently read WHEN HE WAS BAD by Shelly Laurenston and Cynthia Eden. Fell in love with the Laurenston story…loved everything about it. The Eden, that was a new to me author and my first jaguar shapeshifter story. Also very good. Does anyone know of any other jaguar shifter stories that I can get my hands on?

I just picked up The Wedding Officer by Anthony Capella. Looks like a great summer book.

I’m also looking forward to reading The Sugar Queen(s?) by Sara Addison Allen since I loved Garden Spells.

BTW I really enjoyed all of the Twilight books. I guess I don’t analyze them that hard and just enjoy them.

Well, Lynn Flewelling’s fourth Nightrunner book will be coming out on the 24th. I do admit being pretty excited about it, especially since we fans have had to wait for years for new Seregil and Alec adventures,

Janine

Would this be Harlem Redux by Persia Walker? That was the closest match I could find, and it sounds intriguing.

Yep. I was doing my general blog hopping and found her on the Crime Sistahs blog.

I have Twilight at home waiting to be read, but I’m now totally wondering where that invisible line is where a supernatural age gap becomes acceptable and sexy or too much! For example, is it skeezy when the 900-year-old alien Doctor on Doctor Who falls for a 19 year old companion, or is it skeezy when a 100 year old vampire falls for a 17 year old? Where’s the line between immortal romance and just plain wrong!? :)

I didn’t realise the whole interesting story behind the author — just picked it up because I liked the cover. Looking forward to seeing what it’s like.

I read Lynn Kurland’s new book and Loretta Chase’s new one last week. I have a TBR that is soooo deep it is crazy! I used to read about 3 books a week, but I haven’t been doing that for about 6 months now - so the pile has gotten bigger.

I had Jacqueline Carey’s new Mercy book come in on Friday and I also picked up Shiloh Walker’s Through the Veil. I had to travel today so Shiloh won for being lighter to carry. I am enjoying it very much so far.

I have Susan Crandall’s Pitch Black, J.R. Ward’s Lover Enshrined and a few other new books that have been added to the monsterous stack (we are talking 150 to 200 deep)…I really need a hand held reader… =]
