Vytautė Gineikaitė vytautegineikaite — Have been meaning to read this for ages, and while I was deeply drawn to the details of Wendy's story (much of which I knew superficially), I found the writing rather graceless.

Dmitriy Sysoev _eosys — I chose to read this book before Oprah added is to her list...just so you know! This is an intriguing look at the life of Cal/Callie a hermaphrodite growing up in Detroit in the 60's. The story starts with her grandparents who were Greek immigrants in the 20's. At the end I wasn't sure if I liked it or not and I do have to say that I talked about it a lot which makes me think I liked it. I'm just not sure I liked the ending. The story was very fascinating and I recommend it.

Farics András faricsandras — This book started out quickly and was an engaging read. It features a young lawyer trying to fight he way out of a Russian mafiya scheme involving insider trading and terrorism, with a suite of agencies all pointing the finger at him as a prime suspect. The action was fast, the main character was somewhat believable, and I enjoyed it, though sometimes it seemed like it could have been a bit more polished. I'd say it's a good read if you want a book for a quick escape or a travel read.

Zhu Dawan 49686676826ec — These stories are dark, dark, dark and the characters are all either pinched and hateful or self-congratulatingly and blindly positive and hypocritical. And unless I'm forgetting somebody, they're also all really racist in a matter-of-fact way and don't realize it. It's a disturbing read, and there is no feeling of resolution or justice or redemption when they come to terrible ends, only more darkness. At first I was confused b/c I know Flannery O'Connor was religious and it didn't seem to fit with the worldview of these stories, but then I remembered that she was old-school Catholic and it made more sense.

Florence Pernet flo_pernet — I absolutely have to hand it to Carina--they are turning out some top notch novellas. Novellas are such tricky things to get right, and I've been disappointed by many a big-name novella anthology in the past. I like Carina's strategy of marketing novellas by themselves so that readers can pick and choose and not end up paying for an anthology with only one good story. However, if I found Olivia Brynn's novella here in a full-priced anthology, I would still feel like I got a good deal, as it's an excellent example of what a great novella can be: short, sweet, sexy, with a bit of intrigue to keep the pace fast and to balance out the sexy, and believable conflict between the characters that lends itself to a fairly quick resolution in 100 pages. If you like Harlequin American romances, but wish they were a wee bit steamier, or enjoy Linda Lael Miller's contemporary westerns, you will enjoy this story very much. Tessa currently owns the ranch that has been in Josh's family for generations, but a mysterious illness has ravaged her stock of horses, leaving her bankrupt and facing sale. She previously shared a single steamy afternoon with Josh, but he left town shortly thereafter, and she's not too happy to see him back, even if he seems to be the only hope of saving the ranch. This backdrop of the conflict of the fate of the ranch, redeeming Tessa's reputation (and her lost pride), and finding out what happened to the horses was very well done and elevated what could have been a ho-hum reunion story to a real page turner. However, Tessa and Josh's past ensured that their quick progression from animosity to lovers was believable and added emotion. The loves scenes were very well done, steamy but sweet. I particularly liked how the usually-alpha Josh let Tessa be in charge because he understood that that was what she needed then. My only small quibble was with the ending--I felt like Josh should have stepped up to the plate more, and the epilogue didn't quite fit with Tessa's personality throughout the story. However, Tessa's empowered choices fit with the theme of the story, and the epilogue was unusually steamy, which is always nice to see. Brynn does a wonderful job of keeping Tessa strong and allowing her to solve her own problems--even though Josh has come to help, it's really Tessa who saves the day. She needs her White Knight for moral support and good advice, but she's the heroine of her own tale, which is the best kind of fairytale. I look forward to reading more from Brynn!
