Midnight Awakening (The Midnight Breed, Book 3)

Lara Adrian

Dell, 2007

Best of the Breeds
I have read all four of the Midnight Breed books that are out so far, but out of order, and think that this is the very best of the bunch. They are all good, but Tegan is just such a luscious damaged hero! And Elise is so cool and spunky, despite her own painful ...

Kiss of Crimson (The Midnight Breed, Book 2)

Lara Adrian

Dell, 2007

Red Hot Romances
I recommend this book and the others of this author because I like romances. What more can I say? Obviously, I didn't put this on my Kindle reader for its historic value, or because it may be a classic one day. I travel quite a bit and it was a v-e-r-y entertaining ...

Gentle Rogue (Malory Novels)

Johanna Lindsey

Avon, 1990

One of the best romance novels ever.
I've read a number of books by J. Lindsey and my two favorites are this book and "A Loving Scoundrel." Both of them have a girl dressed as and pretending to be a boy. I loved the characters. Good plot. Good writing. Great fun CAUTION SPOILERS: Georgina was ...

Midnight Rising (The Midnight Breed, Book 4)

Lara Adrian

Dell, 2008

RIO'S STORY, WOW!
Couldn't have asked for a better story. I have loved this whole series and was thrilled that Rio's story was out. Dylan was a great character and really held her own in this story. And Rio was . . . well, just Rio. Struggling to adjust after almost being killed, being ...

Surprised

Gang Leader for a Day: A Rogue Sociologist Takes to the Streets

Sudhir Venkatesh

Penguin Press HC, The, 2008

fastinating reading
I heard about this book as a result of the author doing an interview on NPR. Since I live in a somewhat mixed neighborhood in-town in a mid-size city, I had some personal interest as to insights into gangs and lower-income life. I found the book to be fastinating ...

Rogue

Danielle Steel

Delacorte Press, 2008

Great read
I've been a fan of Danielle's books for years. I actually met her on the beach in Hawaii in the 1980s, and she was and is a personal delight. "Rogue" continues her seemingly never ending formula for successful romance novels. It may start off a bit on the slow side, ...

Rogue Robots! Wall - E Pictureback

RH/Disney, 2008

Sweet Story
We just received the book today and my 4 year old loves it. We have already read it 6 times and she just stares at the pictures and asks questions about all of the cool bots. This is a great story to hold her off until Wall-E comes out. She has been waiting for ...

Rogue (Werecats, Book 2)

Rachel Vincent

Mira Books, 2008

Strong Sequel
I bought this book based on my enjoyment of "Strays". This is the second in Vincent's Pride series. Unlike so many other second books, this is a strong sequel that doesn't feel like the author is just rushing to get you to the next book. The werecat world of Faythe ...

Crazy '08: How a Cast of Cranks, Rogues, Boneheads, and Magnates Created the Greatest Year in Baseball History

Cait N. Murphy

Collins, 2008

More Murphy
Wow! This may be the best baseball book I have ever read (and it seems that I have read them all). I can say for sure that it is the best researched baseball book I have read. I know that the next sentence will not sound right, but here it goes anyhow - I can't ...
