Book Banter

who knew my last post here was in January? I’d like to thank all the people that lied to me and told me second semester would be much easier than the first. Lies! All lies! One day I’ll tell stories. like about the time I fell. Or the time I cried. Actually, I cried twice, so you’d have your pick of stories. But in the meantime, I just want to spend the summer reading all the books I’ve accumulated during the year but didnt have time to do more than stroke the cover before tossing it in a corner.

Oh, and I listed Your Mouth Drives Me Crazy in the last post - I got to read it for review, and while I haven’t worked up the energy to write the review yet, I really liked it. Way more than I liked HK’s short story in When Good Things Happen to Bad Boys. So when it comes out in a month or so, you should buy it.  And I’ll post the review here - once my brain doesnt cringe at the thought of putting together more than 2 coherent sentences at a time.

Misty’s third book set in the 500 kingdoms for Harlequin Romance. This books is a combination of the Little Mermaid and East of the Moon, West of the Sun. Lots of great Russian fairy tales, and some old friends including the Little Humpback Horse. Of course it wouldn’t be a tale of the 500 Kingdoms without Tradition.

Not much info yet, but a pretty cover! I’m afraid that none of the books are going to measure up to The Fairy Godmother. I hope I’m wrong but I’m wary.  Oh, and it’s out March 2007.

So some how I got signed up on Triskelion’s mailing list for new books. I don’t normally bother looking at it cause 1) who’s got the time and 2) it doesn’t usually have anything I’m interested in. But since I’m working the procrastination angle right now I decided to open it up and see what was going on. And was hit with this view:

no, I don’t know what the book is about. Hell, I barely know what the title is. But damn, I do love the V. That said, I do think it’s a little porny. I’m okay with that, but I did want to acknowledge it.
