It's all about daring and intrigue this week, as heroes and heroines race against time and villains to protect what they value most. I had so much fun with each of these books, and if any pique your interest, I hope you'll give them a try (or at least add them to your never-ending TBR!). … Continue reading Reading Roundup #98: Hey Little Bird, Fly Away Home

Gentleman Jim by Mimi Matthews
Two of my greatest loves are the revenge drama and the happily ever after. As anyone familiar with the former will know, it's pretty rare to find it paired with the latter. But in Romancelandia, anything can happen and happily ever afters? They're a guarantee. And when it's Mimi Matthews doing the pairing? You can … Continue reading Gentleman Jim by Mimi Matthews
Reading Roundup #97: A Book With Good Bones
I fully expected to have a bigger roundup for you this week, but I hit a string of disappointing books, and I'm really not in the mood to talk about anything I dislike right now! Especially when there were two excellent books I did get to read in between (and to be fair, the others … Continue reading Reading Roundup #97: A Book With Good Bones
The Work of Art by Mimi Matthews
It's been a while since I last sat down to write a full book review, and it's no surprise that a Mimi Matthews novel is the inspiration. When you need a historical romance with depth and drama, Matthews always delivers. In The Work of Art, I've found another favorite — is it possible for all … Continue reading The Work of Art by Mimi Matthews
Reading Roundup #96: Love & Other Books
We're keeping it short and sweet today with two romances (or 4, if we're counting the novellas within the collection separately) and another entry in Jim Butcher's high fantasy Codex Alera series. For this intro, though, I really want to focus on the first two books, which are funny and fluffy and all the things … Continue reading Reading Roundup #96: Love & Other Books
Reading Roundup #95: Friday Reads
Happy Friday! It's time to escape the shackles off the office and enjoy a weekend of luxurious reading! But before I can do that, I need to share what I've been reading this week — one of my more eclectic roundups, with Western adventure, Victorian murder mystery, witchy romance, and more. I think the only … Continue reading Reading Roundup #95: Friday Reads
Reading Roundup #89: Leap of Faith
What a great reading week! Not only did I devour some excellent romances, but I continued with the Penric & Desdemona series, which only gets better and better. Did I say I was going to make these last? Ha! I was delusional. Anyway, this week, the commonality is that all our protagonists must meet each … Continue reading Reading Roundup #89: Leap of Faith
Reading Roundup #88: Inner Voices
I don't know about you, but the few months of the year always fly by for me. I'll put something off for a couple days and look up to realize weeks have now passed! But I'm back now and happy to share some more great books. On the surface, they all look wildly different, but … Continue reading Reading Roundup #88: Inner Voices
Reading Roundup #86: Books to Read Where It’s Peaceful
After a busy year, I'm finally getting some down time, and it feels lovely. For the first few days, as my body finally realized it had permission to crash, I mostly napped and watched Remington Steele episodes. Now, I'm still catching up on rest but with enough brain power to focus enough for reading. And … Continue reading Reading Roundup #86: Books to Read Where It’s Peaceful
Reading Roundup #85: New Favorites
It's another light reading week, but what a good one! Three new-to-me books are going directly onto my list of favorites I'll reread again and again. The cool weather continues in my area, and I'm loving curling up under the blankets with a cup of tea and a good book. I hope this trend continue, … Continue reading Reading Roundup #85: New Favorites
