Tonight I read "Spell of the Highlander". I thought it was funny and sexy. I am not always fond of time travel romance, but this one was well done. I am looking forward to reading more by this author.

I have also read "Beyond the Highland Mist"

She's No Princess - I read the first chapter at Hastings and had to leave. Someone bought it before I could finish it. AAugh!

8/15/06 I found the bood at Borders. I bought it this time. It was pretty good. I look forward to more by this author.

First Kiss - Lousy! I hate books like this. The heroine is a shallow idiot who goes on to do great things and screw a handsome jerk. He actually complements her brains but she is stupid enough to think that brand names matter and that she should by an $800 halter top because someone famous said it would be cute on her. What planet do people like this actually live on? I can't believe I managed to muddle through. I even tried to view it as a farce, comedy, or satire with no luck. Just awful.

Brazen Temptress - My brother refused to check this one out of the library for me and the librarian pretended that she would never read something like a romance novel. I prevailed and got the book which reminded me of a Maureen O'Hara movie. The heroine was even named Maureen although she had a stupid nickname. I hate it when the character has a nickname, especially when it is a name belonging to the opposite sex. It's confusing, I forget who the characters are.

I am enjoying my vacation getting to read and lay around.

The Masquerade

This was the lousiest, tawdriest novel. This book is why people look down on the romance novel. Jerry Springer would have put these people on his show and had a field day. I just don't go for the ate a guy your sister has slept with and had his baby plot. Gross. Reminded me a bit of Tess of the d'Urbervilles but lacked the symbolism and critical view of the victorian era.

Diary of an Ugly Duckling (Advance Proof) - not my usual reading, but I enjoyed it. Made me tear up several times. I wouldn't have done what Audra did at the end of the book, not after all that work. I'm not sure if I feel like it was an honest ending, or the one I was supposed to want. You will have to read the book if you want to know more, it comes out June 27, 2006.
