Deadly Desire by K. Arthur

18 June 2009 Jackie 7

I actually finished Deadly Desire a week ago, but since Weekly Geeks was all about leaving questions for reviews, I held it off until now. However, GOD this was a great novel! Guardian Riley Jenson always seems to face the worst villains. And this time’s no different. For it’s no […]

Blood: the Last Vampire

17 June 2009 Jackie 7

I so can not be the first one to have seen this, so what have I missed? Considering it’s from the people behind Hero and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and it looks freaking amazing, something tells me I need to figure out a babysitter when it hits theaters in the […]

More Contests Than Anything

17 June 2009 Jackie 0

Just a quick FYI…posts may be a little sparse until the end of the month. This is the third day in a row that Ian has decided not to take a nap and his energy level hasn’t changed.  By the end of the day, I’ve been really exhausted and have […]

16 June 2009 Jackie 40

I am so psyched to say that Shiloh Walker is here today.  Seriously, having Shiloh talking about excitement on LE just goes to reinforcing my excitement for reading and supporting my favorite authors.  Especially when they say they’ll write a guest post for LE when I throw on my facebook […]

Annoyed Mama & Books

15 June 2009 Jackie 3

Yeah, the title has nothing to do with what’s here today, just me being increasingly frustrated over the monster who won’t take his nap because he’s screaming for gummi worms and we don’t even have any! Check out who is working with the Dabel Brothers again.  According to Newsarama.com,  Ace […]

The Accidental Friends by D. Cassidy

13 June 2009 Jackie 3

I finally got my hands on Dakota Cassidy’s Accidental Friends series – The Accidental Werewolf, Accidentally Dead and The Accidental Human – and instead of doing a review for each one, I’m going to do one big one. So, without further ado… When Marty Andrews gets bitten by a mangy […]

White Witch, Black Curse by K. Harrison

12 June 2009 Jackie 4

The latest installment in Kim Harrison’s Rachel Morgan/Hollows series, White Witch, Black Curse was just as fabulous as all the previous ones. Some wounds take time to heal . . . and some scars never fade. Rachel Morgan, kick-ass witch and bounty hunter, has taken her fair share of hits, […]
