The Reading Perusals of Rose Summers

Initial reaction: I'm giving this particular installment 1-star, but I'm going to continue with the series because I want to know where it will go. Suffice to say, though, this part of the series was underwhelming and I didn't feel like I learned anything more about the characters from the first boo...

I'll give Marina Anderson's "Desire", the first installation of "The Dining Club" serial novel, the benefit of the doubt. It intrigues me enough to continue, and the writing is much better than many serial novels of its type, but I'll admit I'm not taken by the story yet, because it's not vetted en...

32% Done.I just can't continue. I had one moment's hope for David when he turned down sleeping with Amber at the club behind Grace's back....but then he soon pulled out the emotional manipulation: "Darling, I hope you're not going to disappoint me." the moment that Grace shows some reservations, and...

This one does get into a bit more depth about David's character. His deep desires and a few small secrets bout his kinky side. I still don't like him. He takes Grace back to the Dining Club a couple months later after the last chapter and this time he's only seen her 3 times. In 2 months? Wth? That'...

This book was an ARC provided by NetGalley.

This particular chapter in the the series was kind of tough to read. I can't understand why Grace would push herself to do things she questions so thoroughly. She doesn't want to do these things to prove her love, and David has given her an ultima...

So far the sexual activity in the Dining Club is pretty tame, but thats how you work through the tables so hopefully as more tables come up in the series, it'll start sparking some kind of interest.

I have a hard time believing David is a good person, he's shown nothing yet of someone who ...

This was a completely short book. It's like the intro to entice you into reading the next book in the series. You haven't yet been introduced to the point of the Dining Club yet and have barely had enough time to form an opinion on the characters in the book.

My initial thoughts on them so ...

In my review for Desire , the first part of this serial, I mentioned that I had some reservations regarding David. These concerns have increased with each paragraph I read in Bound David is not only distant and emotionally manipulative, he's cold, demanding, a jerk, seems to have a weird double-stan...

Desire, being the first part in a serialized novel, is a little hard to discuss on it’s own. It’s an introduction, to the characters and to the set-up of the weekend at The Dining Club. I’ll talk a little about my thoughts in these short thirty-odd pages. Grace and David have been together for six m...

Buddy Read with AngeBound is the second instalment of an eight part serialized novel called The Dining Club. Each of these instalments are fairly short (around 30 pages) so don't expect to get a full story in any of them, you really are going to have to read all eight parts to reach what will hopefu...
