Rowena:
September was an extremely busy month for us over here at Book Binge. With our Back to School Extravaganza and everything else we had going on over here, you would have thought that I wouldn’t have had much time to read but curiously enough, I think I’ve gotten my reading mojo back.
Seriously because I read quite a bit in September and I’m extremely proud of myself. Check out the books that I read:
First Lady by Susan Elizabeth Phillips (4.5 out of 5)
Kiss An Angel by Susan Elizabeth Phillips (4.75 out of 5)
Seduced By His Touch by Tracy Anne Warren (4.5 out of 5)
Never Cry Werewolf by Heather Davis (3 out of 5)
Double Standards by Judith McNaught
Extreme Exposure by Pamela Clare (5 out of 5)
Shoot To Thrill by Nina Bruhns (2.5 out of 5)
Loves Me, Loves Me Knot by Heidi Betts (DNF)
His Other Lover by Lucy Dawson (2.5 out of 5)
Perfect Little Ladies by Abby Drake (DNF)
Match Me if You Can by Susan Elizabeth Phillips (4.5 out of 5)
Drawn into Darkness by Annette McCleave (4.5 out of 5)
The Earl Claims His Wife by Cathy Maxwell (4.5 out of 5)
The Accidental Family by Rowan Coleman (4.75 out of 5)
One Lucky Cowboy by Carolyn Brown
My favorite read of the month is Extreme Exposure by Pamela Clare with a close second going to The Accidental Family by Rowan Coleman but since the RC is the newer of the two, I’m going to be giving away a copy of The Accidental Family by Rowan Coleman.
Holly:
I read 17 books this month, including re-reads. I guess being sick has advantages. Since I can’t do much but sit on the couch, I might as well take advantage and read, right?
Happy Endings by Katherine Stone (re-read) 4/5
Texas wedding by Kathleen O’Brian 3/5 (or 2.5/5, I haven’t decided yet)
Burn by Linda Howard 3.75/5
Her Notorious Viscount by Jenna Petersen 3.75/5
Dream a Little Dream by Susan Elizabeth Phillips (re-read) 4.5/5
Taming the Texas Tycoon by Katherine Garbera 3/5
The Daddy Audition by cindi Meyers 3.5/5
Heart Quest by Robin D. Owens 4/5
Heart Choice by Robin D. Owens 4/5
Heart Theirf by Robin D. Owens 4/5
Heart Mate by Robin D. Owens 4/5
Heart Duel by Robin D. Owens 3/5
Can’t Stand the Head by Lousia Edwards 3/5 (or maybe 2.5/5)
A Knight’s Temptation by Catherine Kean 3/5
Angels’ Blood by Nalini Singh 4.5/5
Must Love Hellhounds anthology 4/5
Now I just need to get motivated to review some of these. Maybe I need a ghostwriter? Someone want to help me out with that?
My favorite read this month was Angels’ Blood by Nalini Singh and Dream A Little Dream by Susan Elizabeth Phillips. I also enjoyed catching up on the Heartmates series by Robin D. Owens. Her world-building is amazing. My least favorite read was probably Texas Wedding by Kathleen O’Brian, though Can’t Stand the Heat by Louisa Edwards comes in as a close second.
Casee:

My favorite reads in September were both by J.D.Robb Salvation In Death and Promises In Death. I also enjoyed Close Encounters Of The Sexy Kind by Karen Kelley. I would like to win Cry No More.
It’s too hard to think back, so I’ll go with the last read. Jill Shalvis is a new author for me but I plan on reading all her books now. I read Double Play, a great contemp. romance. Have to read ALL Rox. St. Claire’s too, loved Hunt Her Down. I would like to win Accidental Family, have read the other two already. Thanks, Sue
Holly, glad you liked the Heart books, i love those 🙂
my favorite read was probably either Daring the Moon by Sherrill Quinn or Angels Fall by Nora Roberts
I have cry No More (excellent book) but would love a chance at either of hte other two.
my favorite read this month is let the night begin by kathryn smith.
i’d love to read dream a little dream by susan elizabeth phillips if i win 🙂
I read so many good books this month that there’s no way I can pick just one. Never Love a Lawman by Joe Goodman and Surrender Of a Siren by Tessa Dare were both wonderful historical romances. Dru Pagliassotti’s Clockwork Heart was wonderful steampunk romance. Ann Aquirre’s Blue Diablo was wonderful urban fantasy. Those were the highlights; it was a great month.
My favorite read of the month would have to be “The Strangely Beautiful Tale of Miss Percy Parker” by Leanna Renee Hieber. I won a signed copy, and then when emailing her about my address, I found out not only did she live in my city, but she’d be back to do a book signing, so I got to meet her! I think I went a little Fan-girly…
Thanks!
Morning Glow
