Monthly Reads: September 2012

Posted December 14, 2012 by Rowena in Features | 0 Comments

Rowena: September was a good reading month for me. I read a lot of books that I liked, old books that I loved and books that were so-so but it’s all good because considering the slump I’m in now, I’m just happy that I read as much as I did back then.

Here’s what I read in September.

For Men Only by Sally Goldenbaum (4 out of 5)
Copy That by Helenkay Dimon (4 out of 5)
Finally Home by Helen Scott Taylor (2 out of 5)
Butter by Erin Jade Lange (4 out of 5)
The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbowsky (4 out of 5)
Blaze of Winter by Elizabeth Barrett (2.5 out of 5)
The Truth about Faking by Leigh T. Moore (3 out of 5)
Dash and Lily’s Book of Dares by Rachel Cohn & David Levithan (4 out of 5)
Lord of Temptation by Lorraine Heath (4 out of 5)
Kiss of the Highlander by Karen Marie Moning (mmp) (A)
The Dark Highlander by Karen Marie Moning (mmp) (A)
The Lost Prince by Julie Kagawa (4 out of 5)
Meant to Be by Lauren Morrill (3 out of 5)
Risque Business by Helenkay Dimon (4 out of 5)
Down to Business by Helenkay Dimon (4 out of 5)
Hot Property by Tammara Larson (3 out of 5)

My favorite reads were probably my re-reads of the Karen Marie Moning books (Kiss of the Highlander, The Dark Highlander) that I did for my book club. It was so good to revisit my favorite characters from this series. I’d completely forgotten how much I loved me some MacKeltar twins and I’d forgotten how enjoyable Kiss of the Highlander was. My preferred twin has always been Dageus and he still is but I came to love Drustan a lot more than I remembered. My least favorite read goes to Finally Home by Helen Scott Taylor. It just didn’t work for me.

Holly: I’m dubbing September the month of re-reads. I need to work on reading more new releases and re-reading less. Probably. Someday.
