Obsessed book reviews (49 KP) rated Deadly Secret (Sons of Broad #2) in Books

May 7, 2019

This is the second book in this series by this author. This is a romantic suspense read. This book will have you on the edge of your seat from start to finished. The story flows really well and really easy to follow. The characters are complexed and well written. This book picks up after book 1 finishes. This book offers plenty of suspense, surprises and very hot and sexy scenes. I can't wait to read more from this author in the future.

Highly recommended series

A nice read with the action starting from the very first page when Marilee crashes her hot air balloon into Coles pool. I love the banter between them and there's quite a spark from the beginning but this book was written in the 80's and there is where it should have stayed. If its going to be re-released it should have had a modern revamp. This book has left me wanting... (bit like Marilee!) I'm sure if you brought it into the 'New Adult' genre it could be a 3.5 to 4 stars but sadly its a 2 for me.

David McK (3562 KP) rated Jeeves and the Yule-tide Spirit in Books

Jan 28, 2019

Short free-to-download (form Amazon) Jeeves story, in which Bertie Wooster is off to Skelding Hall to stay with Lady Wickham and her daughter Bobbie, the latest of Wooster's desires in a change of plans from their intended visit to Monte Carlo

Also staying are Roderick and Tuppy Glossop, leading Bertie to (attempt to) get his own back on Tuppy for a previous slight, with his (or Bobbie's) plan involving a hot water bottle and a darning needle ...

Needless to say, things go wrong once again, and Jeeves ends up both saving the day and the trip to Monte Carlo ...

David McK (3562 KP) rated The Deeds of the Disturber (Amelia Peabody, #5) in Books

Jan 30, 2019

The fifth <i>Amelia Peabody</i> novel which, in a change of setting, actually takes place in and around London rather than Egypt (even though it still deals with Egyptology).

There's also a 2001 film called 'The Mummy Returns': having now read this, I can see more than a few parallels between that movie and this! British museum? Check. Historical(ish) setting? Check. Husband and wife team? Check. Precocious son? Check. Attempted Egyptian ritual/curse? Check (yet again).

OK, so the novel doesn't have the undead wandering around, nor a hot-air balloon, but still enough ...

Smart, Sexy, Action Packed

Although I am a huge fan of hot sexy badass chicks I found the flashback sequences top distracting to truly enjoy the film. I understand the purpose of it, demonstrating a truly brilliant effect of multiple scenes laying over each other meant to deceive, holding true the spy game, they were also distracting as one had to piece together what was happening quickly and by then the scene was over. However the acting was truly brilliant and the scenes were beautiful to behold.
