However, in the last couple of years, it seems there are more misses - about three books a year including her out of series books.<br /><br />It's frustrating. Sometimes I just can't finish the book; others time it takes me months. When she's on - I can whip right through the book in an afternoon.<br /><Bekki Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01437144729824303058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6927196002363676480.post-50706223862726856772010-03-16T15:52:54.679-04:002010-03-16T15:52:54.679-04:00Oops.Didn't mean to say I don't like menag...Oops.Didn't mean to say I don't like menage.

Her actions/thinking bothered me so much that I couldn't get past thinking she was insane. (OK, I concede that I might be reacting a little strongly!) Anyway, it got to the point where I couldn't stand to keep going, and I Fedorahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10879033776125666713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6927196002363676480.post-24093682135351686402010-03-15T16:51:07.699-04:002010-03-15T16:51:07.699-04:00I often wonder what would happen if the very first...I often wonder what would happen if the very first book I read by an author is his/her worst book.

Loved her series for awhile and then she failed to give me what I wanted/needed for characters I'd grown to love.

It was part of a series, and it literally ended mid-story, forcing you to wait until they released the next book.

She won't even date other guys waiting for this bonehead to grab a clue. He won't date her because he doesn't feel worthy of her. That's a general enough plot. I'm in LOVE with the story and then they get Laurann Dohnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10682357766355440391noreply@blogger.com
