I got super sick last week and read a half dozen trashy and less trashy PNR/UF books to salve my soul. Also, I managed to tear through all of the Mercy Thompson books, so I'm a little at loose ends as far as light reading goes. I hit a lot of different series to try them out, and first up is my acco...

I had this book for a good six months before I could finish it. I kept picking it up, putting it down, picking it up, then putting it down. I couldn't tell you why the difficulty, just that it was hard for me to get into the beginning. The heroine is a bike messenger with a self-image complex du...

3.5 stars. I wanted to love this book more than I did. I gave it a .5 star bonus for delightful nerd culture references that made me giggle. Overall, though it had all the elements of a successful PNR, somehow I just didn't give a crap by the time I was about halfway through. Figure out the mystery....

I don't know how to describe what I just read because I wasn't expecting what I just read. It was light and at times funny. It was like watching a buddy cop show on TV.I like Alyssa Day and will most likely read the next book when that comes out.

First of all, a huge thank you to Alyssa Day for sending me a signed copy of this book!I loved it! Rio and Luke are both intriguing characters, and neither of them are your typical romance hero/heroine. In fact, the story and the world was a refreshing breath of air in PNR. It was full of surprises,...

Rio JonesLuke Oliver This book was just okay. I enjoyed the characters, the comedy and the steamy smex scenes, but I don't think the mystery came together all that well. It was kind of a big lead up to an anticlimactic ending. Yes she conquered starlight and I know that is supposed to be a big dea...

I had the opportunity to review this one, but I passed because my interest was nominal and I already had a bunch of review books. I did, have some interest though, and won it from a blog.Boy. Howdy. What a fun, fabulous book. Interesting world with fascinating creatures, demons, Fae, kitsune. The ...

This book came SOOO CLOSE to being 5 stars...First, let me say that generally speaking, v. little irritates me more than an author who liberally borrows from fandoms. However... occasionally one manages to do so in a way that's entertaining. Ms Day manages pretty darned well to make a Harry Dresd...
