The Merry Gentry Series, books 6-8By Laurell K Hamiltom Read: April 2010 Rating: Phwoar I tried really hard not to let them all run together, but they did. Rather than try to pull the last three books apart, I’m just going to shove ‘em in one post and mention what lasting impressions I have. A Lick of Frost I was [...] |
Mistral’s KissBy Laurell K. Hamilton Read: March 2010 Rating: Slam First, I would have to declare that Mistral is not terribly important to this volume. Let it be known that the titles are farking arbitrary. (Just to spite me, Lick of Frost is going to be ALL ABOUT FROST, I just know it.) Anyway, Goddess and [...] |
A Stroke of MidnightBy Laurell K. Hamilton Read: March 2010 Rating: Whirlwind Time moves differently in the sithen. Merry says, “I wish we had more time!” and suddenly they do. Time is moving glacially outside the hill, giving them all they need… to catch a killer. The book begins with a press conference, sometime in the afternoon (I [...] |
Seduced by MoonlightBy Laurell K. Hamilton Read: March 2010 Rating: Engrossing First, let me just say that that cover is a total plot-tease. It shows a woman’s belly, with a nice little round to it, and her hand just so… The series is about a woman trying to get pregnant. You are plot-teasing me, you stupid cover [...] |
A Caress of TwilightBy Laurell K. Hamilton Read: March 2010 Rating: Engrossing To be perfectly honest, I’m going to speed through this review, and #3, Seduced by Moonlight. These books slam into each other and it gets hard to pull them apart. Anyway, we now know the plot arc for the whole series. Merry’s aunt, Queen Andais, wants her [...] |
A Kiss of ShadowsBy Laurell K. Hamilton Read: March 2010 Rating: Wham My mummy picked up one of the books in this series, and must have liked what she saw. She didn’t read it, she went and ordered all eight books. Mummy hates starting a series that she can’t finish, or at least be able to read a [...] |
Black Dagger BrotherhoodBy J.R. Ward Read: April-May 2009 Rating: Cool My mom got me hooked on these. She bought the whole Black Dagger Brotherhood series (1-6) and she immersed herself in them for about a week. Then she passed them on to me. Good, solid books. Not perfect, but few things are. As a whole, the series [...] |
The Pillow Boy of the Lady OnogoroBy Alison Fell Read: July 2008 Rating: Humn. I bought this one for $1 at Strand, and so I can’t complain about the price. I was pretty pleased with it at first, titillated on my train ride home, but I stopped about midway through for some reason with the intention of picking it up again [...] |

The Black Jewels Trilogy + Dreams Made FleshBy Anne Bishop Rating: IXCALLENT. Read: 1: High school. 2: June 2006. I love this books. I cannot BEGIN to express how much I love these books. There’s so much to talk about… I’m going to have to try to limit myself. I must’ve passed over Queen about a thousand times in B&N. I always [...] |
