grumpyoldbird is 80% done with Fated Mates: The Alpha Shifter Boxed Set (12 Book Bundle) (Insatiable Reads)
There have been some excellent reads in this box set so far, along with a couple of not so good ones. Annoyed cos yet another story just bloody ended. There was resolution to some bits, but it left loads of unanswered questions. Hey ho, at least it was a good story.

Tad annoyed to realise the next story is a sequel. Fortunately due to my Kindle Freebie Whoring ways I happen to have the 1st story, so gonna read that before I continue with this box set.

Did debate skipping Delicate Freakn' Flower in this set as I've read it before. I couldn't do it though, cos I love that story, it cracks me up good styley.

This has been on my 'currently reading' shelf too long. Moved it over to my new 'try again another day' shelf. I will come back to it at a later date.

Gotta be f*cking kidding me, it transpires the 5th story is part 1 of a series. So big f*cking cliffie with no resolution to anything you've read so far at all. On the 6th story now, after all the abrupt endings so far I don't know if I'm still at the beginning or near the end of this one.

4th story was a bit weird, which I believe was the intention. I don't know if I liked it or not, which is not good when you want to rate/review it. Most of the way through the 5th story, which is alright so far.

Mixed bag with this so far. Predominantly good, thankfully. Didn't get off to a good start, as I got 1/2 way through the 1st story and had to jump to the next. 2nd story was bloody excellent, but it turns out to be the 1st of a series, so bloody ended on a cliffie, not happy. 3rd story was good. Just started the 4th.

I loved Billionaire on Board, so can't wait to get stuck into reading this. I've got a big mug of coffee, so I'm all set to go...

Still not a happy grumpy old bird. Yet another description for one of the stories in this set is missing some rather pertinent info. Have just checked the individual book and it doesn't contain the required info either. It has really pissed me off, and will be reflected harshly in the rating for this set, along with the individual stories.

Not a happy grumpy old bird. One of the stories has peed me off big time. The description of it within this set should have included some info. Have since checked the individual book, and the description there includes the info. Not happy, but what can I do? Apart from have a moan about it, which I'm doing now, lol.

Determined to finish this collection and get it off of my currently reading shelf today. It was a tentative 3 star read, but it's now a 2 star read. TBH so many of them feel like plot ideas for bigger stories. And alot of them are basically a sex scene with little or no story at all. They are pretty much wham bam with no finesse at all.

I'd forgotten how much I love this series. YAY.

Just a bit confused, cos as a doctor to the New Species, you'd think Allie would know more about them. So some of the comments/internal dialogue seem a bit out of place.

Hey ho, I'm bloody enjoying it and that's all that matters, lol...

Another classic Maya'ism: "Of course you can. It's a woman's prerogative. We get our way. Why else would god give us pussies if we weren't supposed to use them to control men? It's in the Chick Bible."

"You can like a guy, but you can't love him. At least, not until he says it first. Or, if he's a furball, not until he brings you something dead and drops it at your feet." Maya Josephs, Prima of the Ridgeville Pride, who, in addition to no ring, hasn't had anything dead dropped at her feet. What-evah.

I love this series, it's just a really good, light-hearted, easy read. Scorchio hot and it's filled with kickass shifters. And the 'Maya'isms' just crack me up. Prime example: "Live by the three "F" rule: If they don't fuck you, feed you or finance you, they don't matter." - Maya Josephs, Prima of the Ridgeville Pride, who is getting fucked. Regularly. Without a ring. Bastard.

Still plodding along with this set. As they're all short stories I'm reading one or two in between other books I'm reading. It was a bit too much reading them all one after another, especially with the typos which were pissing me off.

This should be a relatively quick read. Unfortunately this book is hampered by loads of errors, which are bloody distracting. You keep ending up re-reading bits and mentally correcting it to how it should be. You shouldn't have to do that with a book. Got a few queries with the storyline, hoping they get resolved before the end of it. Other than that it's ok so far.

Still chuckling away at this book. It's like the 'B' movie of books, so bad it's good. Here's why: "...he inserts his throbbing shaft into my inferno...", if it's an inferno you should have gotten some cream for that love. "...his ample dick is intoxicating." Ample dick! Really? Ample breasts, bosom etc, but ample dick? "I can feel my hot center engorged...", yep ya definitely need some cream love.
