Why Katherine Kurtz' Knights Templar series doesn't work for me
Now I am not vain enough to assume that my criticisms of Ms Kurtz' work will apply to others, but here for what it is worth is my view of why I did not enjoy the first two books in the series (The Temple and the Stone and The Temple and the Crown) and why I will not read any further books in the series (if indeed more have been or are to be written; of this I am unaware).

""No, I can see just fine." [See that you are a sexy beast. Down girl.]
Even the main character is self aware to know she's acting like a horndog. Crazy. "Can you tell me your name?" [Was he hitting on me?] In what fucking world does asking for someone's" Read more of this review » |

Why Fish Don’t Exist: A Story of Loss, Love, and the Hidden Order of Life:
"nearly quit 50 pages in because i have the patience of a golden retriever. bumped it from 3 to 4 stars after a completely unrelated existential crisis revealed this book had been solving my problems while I was busy judging it. the audacity of a book"
