I had the flu while reading this so my notes/thoughts were mired in me feeling like I was experiencing a slow death. Because of the homophobic comments and misogyny, I just couldn't get into this. If I had read it when it was first published (I gave This Heart of Mine 5 stars and that has a huge pro...

I loved the old family sagas on TV, like Dallas. Generations of family and all their blissful daily problems and joys. It you liked those long winded, heartbreaking, romantic, dramas this is the book for you. This family had generations of ups, soaring to the highest peaks and bone crushing defeats ...

I have to admit that this book is probably the most difficult to rate I have come across! There was a part of the book I hated (I actually started reading it a while back but kind of dropped on the in-the-future-maybes because I couldn't take much more) and then there where parts of the book I just ...

I would rate this 2.5 stars at the most. I'm really sorry, SEP. I still love you. Hope you won't hate me.Maybe it's my cynical side dominating, but "true love" like Francesca and Dallie's is just...a fantasy. I know that romances like SEP's are meant to be a culmination of a woman's fantasies, and ...

This book is so over the top and ridiculous, with references to Eva Peron and Aristotle Onassis and Scarlett O'Hara... and I thoroughly enjoyed it. There were some cringeworthy moments (racial slurs, nice to see you again), some corny moments (see: O'Hara, Scarlett), and yet, I couldn't put it down....

3.5 stars, rounded up for the wonderful reading voice of Anna Fields. If it wasn't for her awesomeness at reading SEP novels, I might have DNF'd this puppy. I could listen to her read the phone book.This was Dallie & Francesca's story, and one of the few SEP books I have yet to read. I felt like I a...

2.5I have some serious issues with this book. There were times when I wanted to give it a 3.5 and others when I wanted to give up on it. If this hadn't fit the criteria for a reading challenge of mine I would have never finished it. It was too long. Not in that 500 pages is long, in the sense that t...

Fancy Pants is the best unexpected surprise I've gotten so far this year! I was extremely reluctant about starting this book, and I probably wouldn't have even given it a try if it hadn't been for Anzu's review the fact that I had it as a group read. In a nutshell, this is basically what this book ...

Enjoyable, intense, action packed story spanning decades about a heroine who is down to her last dollar and fights her way back. Sometimes I hated the hero and I'm not so sure about her best friend but I was totally engrossed. Easy going pro golfer Dallas find spoiled British beauty Francesca on t...
