Q. How many books do you read in a week? And in what format do you read them, or listen to them?

My answer: I read around 4-6 books a week, depending on if I'm working or not.  I read print books and books on my nook.  I usually only listen if we're driving to MI and when we do that sometimes i can get 2 done in a day (GA to MI is 15 or more hours).

Review: Feast: A Harvest of Dreams - Merrie Destefano


My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Madeline MacFadden ("Mad Mac" to fans of her bestselling magical stories) spent blissful childhood summers in Ticonderoga Falls. And this is where she wants to be now that her adult life is falling apart. The dense surrounding forest holds many memories, some joyous, some tantalizingly only half-remembered. And she's always believed there was something living in these wooded hills.

Review: Management Skills - January Rowe

Management SkillsManagement Skills by January Rowe

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Before Grant was CEO of his company, one of his first jobs was the lighting at an exotic-performing sex club. There he laid eyes on the most beautiful woman he’s ever seen. Years later, after Allie’s quit performing and graduated from college, she’s finally got the job of her dreams. Grant can’t believe it when he recognizes Allie as the performer he’d never been able to forget.

Book Blogger Hop 5/20/2011

Book Blogger Hop

 "If you were given the chance to spend one day in a fictional world (from a book), which book would it be from and what would that place be?"

Too many to choose from I think.  I'd love to go to Hogwarts or St. Valdamir's Academy.  I'd like to visit Seattle and go to Georgina's bookstore.  I think maybe I'd like to go to Calder so I could spot some brothers.  Going to the island to cavort with the Sons of Destiny has been featured in a few great dreams.  I also think it'd be wicked awesome to go Gena Showalter's world of Atlantis.

Q. It's circle time. Time for us to open up and share. Can you tell us FIVE quirky habits or things about you? We all have them...

OK - I'm kind of weird, so don't judge:)

  1. When I use my hands to eat, like french fries or really anything, I have to wash my face afterwards (hands too).  I feel completely greasy and gross if I don't.

  2. I eat wintergreen lifesaver like my life depends on it.  I grind my teeth and get dry mouth really easy and the mints help.

  3. I hate body hair - any kind.  I keep telling my husband that he should go to the girl I go to, but he won't - BYW, she does a mean brazilian.

  4. I hate creases in the spines of books.  It's not as bad if I buy them used and they're already that way, but I threaten with head shaving if the kid creases the spine on any of the new ones.  BTW - she thinks only idiots could crease a trade-sized book, but I've seen it done before.

  5. I love Zumba.  I love dancing and it's more fun than going to a club - plus no hangover in the am.  Unfortunately I've been working a weird schedule this month and haven't been able to go - but here in LaGrange, GA, we have the awesomest Zumba instructor in the world.  I'm hoping to go back in June:)

Summary: (From GoodReads)

Candace, a newcomer to writing erotica, is thrilled when Charlie, a veteran of the industry, agrees to be her mentor. But neither of them ever expected that Charlie's lessons on new positions, using toys, varying locations and role playing would spiral from verbal instruction into hot, hands on education. Unfortunately, Candace's deception about the new erotic romance she's writing--where Charlie plays the starring role--is about to threaten their one chance at true love.

Review: Angel Theif (Out of the Bottle #2) - Jenny Schwartz

Angel Thief (Out of the Bottle, #2)Angel Thief by Jenny Schwartz

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

!!SPOILER ALERT!!

Sara’s an archivist angel in heaven and has possibly found the cure for a dying little boy in the library of an Australian drug lord. While sneaking into his library, so she could copy the book and return it like it was never gone, she was caught by Filip – the drug lord’s djini who’s bound to the grounds by a wish. Being compelled by his master’s wish to turn over intruders, he’s not above indulging in the feelings Sara has awakened within him.

This week's question:
What character in a book would you most like to be, what character in a book would you most like to date?

A - pt.1: I think one of the coolest character's ever is Georgina Kincaid.  I love her to death.  She can shapeshift, she works in a bookstore and she's wicked awesome.  If I can't be Georgina then I'd have to pick Anita Blake...need I explain that one?  pt2: I really have a thing for Zane from the Succubus Diaries series by Jill Myles.  He'd do anything for his woman and that's just hot.  My alternate is Dimitri Belekov, dhampir or Strigoi - I don't care.  He's wicked hot!!
