Well, I had gotten up early this morning and posted a mini rant about my life and about a few of the books that I’ve been reading, but for some reason when I went to publish, it didn’t save. Probably a good thing, because if anyone in the family happened across it, I’d probably be persona non grata for a few days, since they wern’t very nice thoughts.
So about those books,
I finished Sugar Daddy, by Lisa Kleypas, and found it to be a pretty good read. Not my favorite Kleypas to date, but not because it’s a contemporary. I really don’t like first person accounts, and the book kind of spent too much time in Liberty’s early years, and not enough time in her adult years. I also didn’t understand the big deal on Hardy. She gave him the lions share of the book in Liberty’s teenage years, and pretty much nothing towards the end. I felt like he should have been there for more of the end to make a bigger impact on her decision to be with the right guy. I did like Gage a lot, I just don’t think he stuck out as much as he should have.
I just finished Atlantis Rising, by Alesia Day. This one I’m kind of conflicted on. I liked the hero and his warriors, but the women in the book just seemed a little too pissed off at the world, and that’s a turn off for me. It sort of had a Sherrilyn Kenyon feeling too it, which could be good or bad depending on how you feel about Kenyon.
Other than that, not much memorable reading. I did read the latest J.R. Ward, but I think my glow is gone where Ward is concerned. I’m not sure if it’s a case of overhype, or the language in the story. How they speak drives me nuts. “My brother”. Spare me…..But, you know I’ll be buying the next one.lol.
Hasta!
