That is really expensive when you think about it, so I doubt I'll give in to curiosity and buy it.<br /><br /><i>Pool Hall Green</i> is on my ereader. I may get to it later today. I have to go in to work and continue packing those darn boxes. UGH!<br /><br />I understand taking breaks with authors. I'm on a JD Robb break right now. Plus, there are some authors whose work I read immediately when it is released. There are others that I have to spread out. I like Dare's stories, but I usually space them pretty far apart.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7005569873582910532.post-43811075415757596342010-06-12T10:22:49.080-04:002010-06-12T10:22:49.080-04:00Gracey was "unique" Lily.

Yes,...I think you'll enjoy the third one Jen. <br /><br />Yes, Kim Dare is fairly prolific and has a lot of fans and as I said, there's nothing inherently wrong with the story at all, but she uses a formula which is part of her popularity (no wondering what you'll get) and I think I'm just burned out on it right now.Tamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15495571402942021799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7005569873582910532.post-52259053955317428002010-06-12T10:10:14.611-04:002010-06-12T10:10:14.611-04:00Interesting mix of stories.

I just read Kim's story and it was nice but you're right, it's beginning to seem like the same thing over and over.<br /><br />A book in the kitten's POV? Definitely different. :)<br /><br />I've got Pool Hall in my TBR.

Like I said, nothing wrong with the tropes used, but I just need to stay away for a bit. <br /><br />Ah. The only place I've seen those Beau to Beau books is at ARe but I'd never bought one. I think the blurbs didn't appeal and now that I know you get 6 pages for $1.50 I'd be a bit cautious. You can get 25 page Sips for that price. Still more expensive per page but a quarter is pretty steep.Tamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15495571402942021799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7005569873582910532.post-67351531910818928262010-06-12T09:11:41.129-04:002010-06-12T09:11:41.129-04:00Ah, now I see what you were saying about KD.

But I have had it happen with different authors - taking a break from the author usually does help, you're right.<br /><br />Loved <i>Pool Hall Green</i>, too!<br /><br />LOL about <i>Gracie</i> - thanks for being a good sport. ;) That publisher puts out books every few days, actually... and I think it's pretty much a self-publishing venture, from what I've seen.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12959009113795804133noreply@blogger.com
