Katherine Heigl Already More Plum-Like

Katherine Heigl Already More Plum-Like

It’s been a few months now since it was announced that Katherine Heigl will be playing Stephanie Plum in the upcoming film One For The Money, which is the first installment in the 20 book series by Janet Evanovich.  While I am fully behind her in the role a lot of people are not convinced.  One [...]

I Am Switching Teams!

I Am Switching Teams!

I’m a fan of Twilight, I don’t think that’s any secret around here.  Even though the first movie frustrated me with Bella’s lip biting and head wobbling, the missing pieces and the bits thrown in that weren’t even in the book… I’ve still watched it again.  Ok more than once, leave me alone! While reading [...]

Het Boekenfestijn

Het Boekenfestijn

I got these eight books for only €27!  Not a bad deal at all! This past weekend I visited Het Boekenfestijn in Ahoy, which is a huge book festival that is held once a year to sell off books that were left over from the year’s stock.   I had never been and was curious about [...]

My Scarpetta Movie Castings!

My Scarpetta Movie Castings!

Around this time last year I did a post about what my choices would be for Stephanie Plum Movie Castings, if she were ever to come to the big screen.  There has been a lot of debate about it, but I still stand firmly behind my selections. The other day I saw an article on [...]

Book Review: The Birthing House

Book Review: The Birthing House

This is quite possibly one of the worst books I have ever read.  A friend loaned it to me together with an entire bag of other books.  She went through them quickly with me but she admitted she bought a few of them simply because of their covers.  They do all have very cool and [...]

Thought The Twilight Saga Was Over?

Thought The Twilight Saga Was Over?

Think again!  If you want more Edward and Bella, I have the perfect story for you! ** SPOILER ALERT! ** – If you haven’t finished the original four books, stop reading here as the synopsis of this fan fiction story contains info you don’t want to see yet. Don’t say I didn’t warn you. Seriously, [...]

Twilight – The Story I Hate to Love

Twilight – The Story I Hate to Love

I recently decided to pick up the wildly popular series of Twilight books.  I’ve heard so much about them but always had other things I wanted to read first.  When the movie came out, I felt a bit pressed for time, because I really wanted to see the movie, but not without reading the books [...]

My Stephanie Plum Movie Castings

My Stephanie Plum Movie Castings

I’ve been reading the most fantastic series of books lately, and I’ve pretty much forced all my close friends and family to start reading them as well.   It’s the Stephanie Plum Series by Janet Evanovich.   They are about a girl who loses her job as a lingerie buyer and ends up blackmailing her sleezeball cousin [...]

The Odd Struggle

The Odd Struggle

I have been reading the book Odd Thomas for over a month.   I’ve been dying to read this book for quite a long time and when I got a gift certificate from work for the big book store in town, I went out and bought it.   I also bought the next book in the series, [...]

Recent Read: Mahlangeni by Kobi Kruger

I recently finished reading this book, and I loved it.   When I was in the south of France a few months ago my brother-in-law gave it to me to read because he loved it as well.  He had spent some time in South Africa and picked it up while he was there. I’m sure it [...]

Against the Grain

I hate when I read or watch something that the rest of the world raves about and seems to think it’s the best thing since sliced bread, and I don’t like it.  It happens quite often, like with the Kill Bill movies… or Monty Python.   It makes me feel like I have no taste, or [...]

Bones

If you remember, a while back I read a few books by Kathy Reich’s. The books were about a forensic anthropologist named Temperance Brennan.   I didn’t like the books at all and I really didn’t like the main character.   I found it weird because the books got so many great reviews but I ranked them among the [...]

Best friends Kamryn Matika and Adele Brannon thought nothing could come between them – until Adele did the unthinkable and slept with Kamryn’s fiance, Nate.

Some Recent Reviews

The book I finished just was the 2nd one I had bought by Kathy Reichs.  You might remember the review of the first book, Deja Dead.   As promised, I read the 2nd in the series and gave it a shot. On Saturday evening I went out with a few girlfriends to see a movie. Again, [...]

*FAINTS*

As you probably gathered from previous posts, I’m a massive fan of Mike Gayle and his books. After writing my review of his latest book – Brand New Friend I decided to poke around the web and look for his website. I found it, and it had a link to his email so I decided [...]

Book Review – Brand New Friend

That’s what I added to my review page. I have a little more to say about it though… don’t worry it won’t contain any major spoilers. I found this book quite difficult to read for the first half, which made me feel as though I sort of didn’t like it… mainly because of how it [...]
