I was surprised by how much I enjoyed Just One Damned Thing After Another when I read it several weeks ago; I generally feel pretty 'meh' about time travel and usually pass it by. But I was swayed by the academic bent of the time travel and the humor and liked it so much I pretty much immediately ...
Series: Chronicles of St Mary's #2 I'm still not a big fan of this series. Once again this was just ok. Once again the events were a series of péripéties although they formed a more cohesive plot this time around. I honestly thought this one might be better than the previous one despite the weird ...
I'm not a serial reader. I'm quite the opposite, even when I like books, I'm usually glad I can dive into another world next. However, having finished the first book in the St. Mary's series, Just One Damned Thing After The Other, I couldn't resist and immediately started the second book (and after ...
review to come

Just One Damned Thing After The Other, the first title in the series, must surely rank as one of the most appropriately named books ever; because it's true. Every time another catastrophe is averted, and you think you can now breathe a sigh of relief . . . Well, think again because it's not happeni...
Read my happy warbles of pleasure at my blog: http://tinyurl.com/lntl92j I am so picking your pocket of $3.99 here, US Kindle users. The UK version's cost I don't know, but if it's more than two pounds I'd be amazed. Good fun, some sex, a fair number of lasciviously inclined redheaded women, and...
