It's something about the last 10,000 words of a book that I just want to lock myself in the room, turn up the music and finish the darn thing already.

I really enjoyed the Briefs I read this time around, and I'm again very impressed by the courage and quality of the writing. I love the variety in this line.

 

No Apologies by Tracy Wolff

 

Rating: Good

I didn't really like the heroine in this one, and it took me a while to warm up to the relationship. However, the writing was strong and I liked the longer length (a little over 50 pages).

I'd read another by Wolff but wouldn't call this a favourite.

Western Weddings

challenge_name: 

I love Kate Bridges so that's the main reason I bought this book but I enjoyed all three stories!

Dreams Made Flesh

challenge_name: 

This book is an anthology containing a series of novellas and short stories related to The Black Jewels trilogy.  They were excellent and kept me up when I should have been sound asleep.  I highly recommend them to any of bishops fans as they tie up a lot of loose ends from the BJ trilogy and also give some really interesting back story/side story.
