Can't wait to hear what you think of Black City! Great haul of books this week, too. Happy reading :-)
Friday is my Black City review and thanks Lauren same to you!
Number 1 - I like the amount of stuff you have going on a lot better than what we do...you are obviously MUCH better at saying no that either Harlie or I! lol
Number 2 - Such good books you are reading and different from the ordinary fare! I love it!
Number 3 - You rock. There. I said it. ;) Have a great week!
Number 1- glad you like my content and heck no..i struggle everyday to say No and my ARC pile agrees
Number 2- I love mixing things up so you never know what deliciously good books you will find
Number 3- You made my day! Thanks Liberty!!!!
Ooo I got the Bella book too! Need to read book one soon so I can jump on that! And oh my word. Jealous over the Linda Lael one. LOVE her! Looks like you're gonna have a fun week!
I am really looking forward to the tour. I love Miller too:)
Yay for flip flops. It's hitting the 100's today... Yay and blah. :D Happy Mother's Day!
ooh no 100 won't do 74-85 perfect!
thanks April and you are welcome!
Happy Mothers day Kimba! Champagne brunch sounds lovely.
I can't wait for your Black City and After Dark reviews this week! You also received some great books - I'm a big fan of Bella Andre.
Have a great week & happy reading :-)
Thanks Sharon I am participating in the Belle Andre Summer tour.. and will be sharing three books with you.
I was glad for the romances because I have a lot of horror, dystopian and mysteries coming up in my schedule and I will read one of these in-between to cleanse my palate. Enjoy your weather and have a wonderful Mother's Day!
As my husband says, "Sounds like a plan!"
Happy Mother's Day! A champagne brunch sounds amazing! And yay to flip flop weather!!!

Happy Mother's day!! I look forward to your week ahead, as always. :)
Happy Mother's Day to you too Toni!
hahaha..yes we American's are on a different schedule! Hope you have a lovely day:)
TRUE AND DOWN LONDON ROAD!!! I absolutely adored True, I can't wait to see what you think Kimba! I'm dying to read Down London Road, On Dublin Street was one of my favorite reads last year. And I still need to read a Linda Lael Miller book, I've never read one. That needs to change!
Down London Road was lovely, and I am looking forward to True
YAY for warmer weather! I love this time of year. Also, Lurlene McDaniel was one of my favorite authors growing up. I'm going to check that one out now! Great week!
Great new books for you! Enjoy them and have a Happy Mother's Day! Sounds like you've got a nice day planned.
I am excited, just waiting for the hubs to get out of the shower. My oldest and her boyfriend are driving to meet us (she is away at college) for breakfast brunch. Happy Mother's Day!
Uh-oh not serious issues, although reviews have all been promising. I love Young's new series especially the setting
Happy Mother's Day! Have a great week!
thanks Yvonne, hope your day is relaxing!
I enjoyed it and have a wonderful day!
OOh nice haul! Those are new to me but I hope you enjoy them all!
Here's my STS
Have a GREAT day!
Old Follower :)
thanks Jessica I will stop by later to check out your haul!
Happy Mother's Day, Kimba! I'm glad you're celebrating, and glad it's warming up. After an 84-degree high yesterday, it's only supposed to reach 70 here, so there goes my plan to wear sandals this morning.
You have a lovely lot of romances in your haul this week. Happy reading!
well, I decided the heck with it, and squeezed it in by staying up till 3am Friday night and I am so glad I did. My review will post the first week in June :) Happy Mother's Day Lisa!
Happy Mother's Day! Enjoy your brunch and reading! Have a great week.
I am excited it's my first one. I imagine I will be in a food coma and need a nap this afternoon..LOL
we missed you, and yes to Bronze Gods!
Cheers!!! *clink, clink* Happy Mother's Day!!! Enjoy your brunch and day of reading!!!
I chuckle now when I see your new books, like Linda Miller, b/c the first thing I think of it, "Crap, now I've got to fit another of her books on the shelf!!" - I'm in charge of keeping paperback "M"'s in order (among others) and that lady has more Big Sky and McKettricks and blah, blah.... Her books get a serious workout and are always a mess!!
... but I babble... Have a great week, too!!!! ps. no haulin' for me ;)
*raises a glass to you* Ha, Miller is a go to author when I need a cowboy fix and sweet romance.
I really can't wait to read your review of Black City. I had to DNF it because I wasn't feeling it at the time, but I didn't hate it! Maybe I need a little push to go back to it, and hopefully I'll get it from your review.
Happy Sunday and happy Mother's Day!
Ya know Maja at first I wasn't sure if it was all romance..but I am glad I read it..I did like the world and have an arc of book two.
Enjoy your day! Happy Mother's Day.
Thanks Dru, hope you have a wonderful day too!
Enjoy your champagne brunch, that's a lovely treat :) Looking forward to hearing more about Black Venus, love the cover.
psst..Black Venus is a giveaway later today I have too many books scheduled at this time and agreed to host a giveaway!
Happy Mother's day this sunny day :)
thank you my dear..enjoy your day!
And Happy Mother's Day
