Sinful by Joan Johnston
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Sensuality: 6
I am not even done reading this one yet. But I felt urged to warn the masses about how boring this book is.
WARNING!!! This book is very, very boring.
The strange thing is that one of my most favorite books of ALL time is a Johnston book (The Cowboy).
This author LOVES her family feuds. I don't mind one, but every page must have "but your a Grayhawk and I'm a Flynn!" "I'm a Flynn and your a Grayhawk"?????? Why are we reminding ourselves of our last names so often?
It felt like the author was trying to convince us the feud was real. Real and serious!
There is no chemistry between the main characters either.
Just don't buy it. This one was an impulse buy that I completely regret. Especially since there was a great classics DVD I could have purchased instead.
Happy reading
2/5
Beautiful Secret by Christina Lauren
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Sensuality: 9
This book was an interesting read. I enjoyed how strange the hero was. He's a bit socially awkward and uncomfortable.
The relationship was not an ideal one from the very beginning between the hero and heroine. The book looked at how imperfect two people can be for each other despite having a heavy attraction to one another. A bit cliche these days...
The story did seem to build up a lot, and never really get all that interesting. It had its hot and heavy moments, but it was somehow a bit boring to me.
I find strange characters such as the hero's fascinating, so my curiosity in regards to him kept me reading on. If I had to do it all over again though, I wouldn't have purchased a hard copy. It is not the worse book I have read by far though.
You know when you're traveling and want a book to kill time? Yup. That's what this was.
Happy reading
3/5
