You have lots of four and five star books. Wonderful!
there are some 3's not many 1-2's. hope one of my favorites becomes one of your favorites.
Jeez, lady! You've read over 1000 books!!! Now that's impressive.
you too i'm sure. i'm just anal enough to track 'em
I don't know. My count is at 250, and though I know I don't have all my reads marked as "read", I don't think I'm missing 750 of them. ;)
Happy Sunday!!July 8 thru July 14
This weeks reads ranged from what is this?!?! to why don't I give this a 5star!?!?

You had a lot of great reads this week, Pat! :)
I had a couple of WTH????? But I do like being able to switch between so many different series.

You do good at that. Me, not so much. But you knew that already and love me despite all my literary faults. Haha!

I actually had a couple of contenders for most arduous read of the week...but we don't talk about that. July 15 - 20 reads were:
. Surprisingly I was still able to determine a read of the week. I wanted it to have more competition but sadly it did not, but that does not take away from it being a great read.
-- Pat’s thoughts on Oracle's Moon
Seems like Oracle's Moon and Vengeance Born are the winners this week.
Aw, looks like a lot of these reads didn't pan out for you. :(
wasn't my best reading week but it happens. luckily I have a reproducing tbr pile, so I definitely won't run out

*snicker* Yeah, no chance of that happening.

Had a DNF this week (couldn't connect with story or characters) and a couple that were actually great reads. July 21 thru July 27 reads
My favorite read this week was:
. It was difficult to put down once I started. Pat's thoughts on The Gamble
I liked Forged in Steel and The Gamble the best. Seem like something I'd enjoy.
I can only think of one Kristen Ashley that I didn't care for very much and I've recommended KGI to you a couple of times. Also despite the few typos I think you'd really enjoy Shifter in Ascent - that one seems right up your alley.
The KGI is on my next-up and I'll get to it very soon. It's being moved up. I'm definitely thinking on Ashley and Shifter in Acent.
Hmm...there wasn't a review attached to the last one (Voices). Did you like it?
Jolyn wrote: "Hmm...there wasn't a review attached to the last one (Voices). Did you like it?"my screw up thanks for letting me know I didn't hit save. I gave it a 3.5
Oooo...I hope you had it saved in a Word doc or something. :(

With so many great choices this week it is definitely not easy to select just one as my favorite read of the week. That being said:
was a fabulous YA read and
was a great adult read.Pat's thoughts on Dread Nemesis of Mine
Pat's thoughts on Beyond the Highland Mist
What a wonderful reading week you have had.
That's what I call READING! geez! how can you read so many in so little time? I wished I could do that! :)I can't seem to find your review on Beyond the Highland Mist... maybe it's just me?
I usually read more than one at a time. i'll repost it i'm having computer fun again!also this week there were 3 with less than 150pages
Good week, Pat!! I can't believe you read
NINE
books and still felt like you hadn't read much this week. LOL
They were so good they felt effortless and there were a couple of shorts. It was really a great reading week (I don't know when I've read so many very good to great books in a row) several of them really need a larger audience - they are hidden gems.

My favorite Genre is Romance in all its off-shoots but definitely lean toward Paranormal & Urban Fantasy more than any other. There will be reviews for other romance categories as well as Thrillers, Mystery and Suspense. You definitely won't find non-fiction or horror reviews here.
