Whatcha Reading?

March 23, 2005 | Filed under: Uncategorized

So recently I’ve been on a romance reading kick. Read Nora’s Northern Lights, SEP’s Ain’t She Sweet, Rachel Gibson’s new one … I was wondering what you all have read lately?

    I’ve just finished Venetia by Georgette Heyer. I can’t believe I’d never read this woman before! Some of the narrative drags a bit, but the plot and characters are so compelling that I was never once tempted to put it down.

  2. Melissa says:

    I just finished WORTH EVERY RISK by Dianna Love Snell and am now reading FLORIDA ROADKILL by Tim Dorsey.

  3. kacey says:

    okay, I confess. I just read the DaVinci Code. I know, I know! I’m so behind… :blush:

  4. Pat L. says:

    Hi, I have recently read and loved:
    The Trouble with Valentine’s Day, Nerd Gone Wild, Backup Plan by Sherryl Woods, Susan Mallery’s Falling for Gracie, Amy J. Fetzer – Tell it to the Marines, Wicked Women on top and 101 and of course White Heat – VG – Currently
    Reading The Red Diary by Toni Blake. Aren’t you glad you asked? LOL. :laugh:

  5. Elizabeth says:

    I just finished The Brides Necklace by Kat Martin.

  6. Jill says:

    Sela, I have to admit I haven’t tried Heyer either …

    Kacey, I loved the DaVinci Code!

    Pat, I read Nerd and Marines … but I’m getting behind!

  7. Beth C says:

    I just finished Suz Brockmann’s ‘Hot Target’. Just now I’m reading, swear, one of yours, Jill. ‘White Heat!’ :cool: Griffin is HOT!

  8. Joely says:

    I’m currently reading Tiger Eye by Marjorie M. Liu and Secrets Vol. 11. Both are great. Next on my list is Divine Fire by Melanie Jackson.

    P.S. I still haven’t read DaVinci Code…

  9. Jill says:

    Beth, I loved Hot Target. And so glad you’re enjoying White Heat!

    Joely … I didn’t realize Secrets was up to volume 11 … wow!

  14. kim h says:

    I read the new one by Rachel Gibson, good. Last year I love Bet me by Jennifer Crusie! Mr Complete by Sheridon Smythe, that was great!

  15. Mary says:

    Just finished THE GLASS CASTLE by Jeannette Walls. Wow, what a book. Finished it in two days! It’s a memoir–excellent. :D

  16. kim h says:

    :) The bane Affair by Alison Kent, awesome!!!

  17. Amy K says:

    I just finished an old Superromance that no one would be able to find. LOL It was good though!

    Next up, I’m trying to choose between Suzanne Brockmann’s GONE TOO FAR, Susan Wiggs’ SUMMER BY THE SEA, or another Super. Decisions, decisions….

  18. Jennifer says:

    I,ve read For Us The Living by Robert Heinlen, and Blue Flame (very good). I then went on a diary kick and re-read Bridget Jone’s Diary and I just started The Corset Diaries by Katie MacAlister.

  19. Jill says:

    Wow, some great books listed. Interesting the wide variety.

    (And though I’m NOT asking for compliments, I did grin widely at the mention of Blue Flame, White Heat and Serving Up Trouble.

  20. BJ Deese says:

    Amy, Summer by the Sea is awesome!

    I just now finished Whole Lotta Love by Stephanie Bond. Let me say, it was FREAKIN FANTASTIC!!! OMG I can’t get over how could this book was. I’m going to blog about it later. :)

  21. BJ Deese says:

    ummm…I meant to say "how GOOD this book was" not could. lol

  22. Jill says:

    I LOVE Stephanie Bond’s books, especially Whole Lotta Love!

  23. Cece says:

    FLORIDA ROADKILL< --Can I just say how much I love that title? :P
    I’m pittiable…I have tons to choose from but I"m not reading anything. I just keep buying and buying and buying and I guess my brain is supposed to absorb them through osmosis or something
    :blush:

  24. Jill says:

    Cece, LOL. I have the SAME problem. I need more shelves …

  25. Donna M says:

    Recent reads are: Nerd Gone Wild, My Sunshine,Warm & Willing, & of course Men of Courage II & Free Fall (so good). Right now I am reading Someone Like You–just started it. :)

  26. Sue says:

    I read Men of Courage11 and then read Lori Foster book
    Say no to Joy great books :P

  27. Kristie says:

    Just finished Ride the Fire by Pamela Clare. It’s a great, wonderful, terrific book,
    Tiger’s Eye by Marjorie M. Liu which I also thought was very good and your very own Free Fall; again very good.
    Currently I’m reading Killer Curves by Roxanne St. Clare.

  28. Jill says:

    Hmm, I’ve heard a lot about Tiger’s Eye, I might have to check that one out!

  29. Nicole says:

    Oh Jill, Tiger Eye is fantastic! I just loved the possibilities she showed in the book. Seriously good paranormal.

  30. Loretta says:

    Just finished one I picked up at the UBS.
    Pillow Talk – Hailey North, before that was Wicked Women On Top, and before that was Rachel Gibson’s The Trouble with Valentines Day.
    not sure what I’ll start next.

  31. Mel says:

    Ditto Cece. Love the osmosis comment. And sometimes I wish I could speed read. LOL! If you enjoy books by Elmore Leonard and Carl Haaisen you’ll like FLORIDA ROADKILL by Dorsey. I must warn you though it’s extremely violent.

  32. Jill says:

    Has anyone read Harlan Coban? Love him.

  33. Jodi says:

    I finished Roughing It With Ryan yesterday. Then, I started Seeing Red. I am really enjoying it and must get back to reading more.

  34. Cece says:

    Mel…I’ll definitely have to check it out then–like I need more books LOL. Jill I bought one of his books once and started it but I never finished.
    And I saw Mystic River it was just…sad. DOn’t get me wrong, I love good character driven thinking movies even if there’s no redemption like The 25th Hour but that was just…sad.

  35. Sara says:

    I’m in the middle of an EC book, Lyric’s Cop by Jory Strong. I’m loving it so far. Before that I read another EC book, Perfectly Incompatible by Kathryn Anne Dubois. Loved it! very good story and alpha hero.

    I’ve been flipping thru my April Allure magazine off and on all day, too. Does that count as reading? LOL

  36. Jill says:

    Yep, magazines count! I read magazines when I’m burned out on books. i go back and forth …
