Here’s the thing . . . I don’t really have a “someday” pile. When I started blogging, I had a kindle that I kept meticulously organized. I had my favorite books that I’d already read divided into a dozen(ish) collections, and I had books I was definitely planning on reading at some point in “unread” […]

Julie (YMaKAC) has been on vacation for the last couple of weeks, so it’s easy to see where her inspiration for this week’s question came from. *winks* I am, however, in a less common circumstance, and that circumstance is that I don’t have a regular 9 – 5 job, or even an irregular, but 40(ish) […]

So here’s the deal . . . I think everyone knows that I read YA. I’m pretty sure most people know that I like romance in my books as well. Generally speaking, there are distinct differences between what is allowed in YA and in adult books . . . b/c come on . . . […]

We all have preferred genres. Yes, we love to read in general, but certain subjects, certain scenarios, are particularly attractive to us, and when given the choice between that type of book and another, we will almost always pick the book with those preferred elements. But why? Which one is your favorite, and what book […]

This week’s question should make my dirty-minded peeps happy (you know who you are! *coughs* Lori… Jennifer… Lexxie…) because you don’t have to come up with creative ways of perverting it. Yes folks, it’s time to talk about fictional vs real life sex. I’ve pretty much come to terms with the fact that romance in […]

“What do you tell people you read?” . . . Hmmm . . . When Carmel sent me this week’s question, my first thought was, “Huh?” Eloquent, yes, I know, but there it is. And even after being given more information, it’s still a complicated question. For me, at least. If you’re sitting there, minding […]

I think this week’s question is more geared towards Contemporary Romance readers than Urban Fantasy ones, but seeing how this is my first question post since I got back from my honeymoon I figured that I couldn’t very well pass this one off on Jessica. She has done the last four after all. LOL It […]

I don’t think there are. But the reason I don’t there are is complicated . . . I don’t much like going to movies based on books. Especially if the book said movie is based on is a book that I L-O-V-E-D. Take the Harry Potter movies—I don’t think I’ve seen them after Harry Potter and […]

Ever been in the middle of a really great series that turned BAD? That first less than stellar installment is disappointing. Maybe it even makes you angry. But is a single bad book enough to make you quit a series that up to that point has been an excellent investment of your time? NOPE. But what about […]

YES. For those of you who know me, that probably doesn’t come as a huge surprise. I’m the QUEEN of rereads. I’d say that probably HALF of my reviews on here are rereads. BUT . . . there’s a WORLD of difference between rereading the previous installment(s) in a trilogy or a short series a year after […]
