Bombing Amazon Rank!

12 April 2009 Jackie 1

This is unbelievable!  Amazon has been stripping various books of their sales ranking because of their adult content.  Novels from Larissa Ione, Maya Banks and Jaci Burton are no longer popping up in Amazon searches, because without these rankings, the searches don’t include them.  Well, in their glorious wisdom, Smart […]

7 April 2009 Jackie 3

I had never heard of Natasha Mostert until reviews starting pouring in for her novel Season of a Witch. They intrigued me and while I haven’t had a chance to read Season of a Witch yet, I did get the opportunity to read her latest novel, Keeper of Light and […]

Feast of Fools by R. Caine

11 March 2009 Jackie 3

No, I’m not backed up on reviews. I really did finish two books today. The fourth Morganville Vampires novel, Feast of Fools was completely captivating. In the town of Morganville, vampires and humans live in relative peace. Student Claire Danvers has never been convinced, though—especially with the arrival of Mr. […]

Midnight Alley by R. Caine

11 March 2009 Jackie 1

I don’t know what it is about young adult fiction, but whenever I’m getting stuck in a reading rut, I can usually count on a YA title to bring me out of it. It doesn’t always work, but Rachel Caine’s Midnight Alley did it for me this time. Claire Danvers’s […]

Wicked by Any Other Name by L. Wisdom

2 March 2009 Jackie 1

Linda Wisdom’s Wicked By Any Other Name completely surprised me.  I’ve heard this series referred to as the Hex series, so when I started reading and found out our main characters were not Jazz and Nick, I was shocked and yet happy at the same time. Feisty witch Stasi Romanov […]

Desire Unchained by L. Ione

25 February 2009 Jackie 1

Larissa Ione was one of those authors that I continuously stumbled upon in grocery stores and kept grabbing my attention. When I finally did pick up her novel, Pleasure Unbound, I was completely captivated and I have to say she does it again with Desire Unchained. Though some of the […]
