oh three straight days of reading

18. Deadly Caress, Brenda Joyce
17. Deadly Desire, Brenda Joyce
16. Deadly Affairs, Brenda Joyce

Sigh. I just read for pretty much three straight days. (well one of those i went to work at some point.) And then last night I had a dream about Francesca Cahill, and thought I'd better slow down. lol. but it's like reading one book that you just really want to finish, but when you finish it, the saga isn't over. She's very good at getting at the page-turner thing. One of my criticisms however is Deadly Desire needed a better editor. There were like a couple instances where the wrong name was used ("You think he killed Calder?" Calder asked.) or a name spelled two different ways. (Neil walked into the kitchen ... Neal grabbed the knife.) that was slightly annoying. Other than that hmm, I like Francesca better with each book ... possible because she finally got over Bragg and has moved on to Calder (*sigh* loveee Calder) Also I love how many secondary characters she has (very ala Suzanne Brockmann, the best most wonderful writer ever) that don't just add layers to the main characters, but have depth and flaws and intricate story lines of their own.

Anywayyy Kat is visiting tomorrow! :))) so it may take a couple more days to finish the last two (one of which I don't have at the moment, *grumble*) Also mutti apparently has the 15th evanovich book and if they visit next week she's bringing it!!! (YAY)

'til next time, happy readings :)
