Monthly Reads: August 2012

My favorite read of the month goes to Easy by Tammara Webber.  It was such a good story with characters that I came to love and I couldn’t love it more than I did.  I re-read the book last month and I loved it all over again.  Such a wonderfully romantic story about new adults that had me grinning like a crazy lady.  My least favorite reads of the month ties and go to both Narc by Crissa-Jean Chappell and Close Enough to Touch by Victoria Dahl.  They both just didn’t work for me.  The story dragged in one and I never warmed up to any of the main characters enough to like them in both books and well, I wasn’t a fan of either book.

Holly: August was a much better month for me. I read 19 books.

1. Heart Search by Robin D. Owens
2. The Cutting Edge by Linda Howard (re-read)
3. Down to Business by HelenKay Dimon

10. Undercover Alliance by Lilly Cain
11. Beautiful Disaster by Jamie McGuire
12. Bluebird Winter by Linda Howard (re-read)
13. Heartbreaker by Linda Howard (re-read)
14. A Notorious Countess by Julie Anne Long
15. The Way Home by Linda Howard (re-read)
16. The Short and Fascinating Tale of Angelina Whitcombe by Sabrina Darby 
17. Against the Rules by Linda Howard (re-read)
18. His Voice, His Command by Vonna Harper

As you can see, I did another binge re-read of Linda Howard. I do this every so often. Howard is a master. I read one and I just can’t stop. Re-reads aside, I think my favorite read was The Notorious Countess Confesses. Long writes such beautiful historicals. My least favorite read was Beautiful Disaster. I actually enjoyed the first half of it, but the 2nd half went off the rails on a crazy train. It was bad.
