Oh my I started M J Arlidge's Pop Goes the Weasel on Wednesday and I finished it last night.If you are squeamish, this one is not for you. However, if you like a dark and twister thriller, this one is definitely for you.

Below is the official review I've been posting on this one.

I received this copy of Pop Goes the Weasel by M J Arlidge from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

What a fantastic dark and twisted follow up to Eeny Meeny.

What happens when a street walker turns on her clientele? Helen Grace find out quickly that catching her isn't as easy of a task as one might think..

Well hello everyone.

I just logged onto the blog and realized that it's been awhile since I last made an entry. Shame on me!

Well, let's see, I am currently reading three books at once.

Come on, you all do this, You feel like reading a book, but one's too dark. One is too light and the last one is just right.

Here is what's on my current reading stack

Devious by Lisa Jackson

Pop Goes the Weasel by M J  Arlidge

The Veil by Megan Chance

Hope your reading list as as full packed.

I received this copy of Long Tall Christmas by Janet Dailey from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

Take a widow with two teenagers who moved in whit her aging aunt and her handyman. Add a motorcycle riding cowboy who has finally gotten the chance to live his dream of riding his motorcycle cross country. Add a splash of a Christmas snow storm and you have a great recipe for a Christmas time romance.

I received this copy of The House on Seventh Street by karen Vorbeck WIlliams from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

And I have to say, that I am so glad I did read it. When I'd started to read this book I had expected the usual mystery. Instead I found a book that immediately drew me in and didn't let go till I had read the final page. It is well written, with rich and warm characters.

I am now currently reading two books.

Long Tall Christmas by Janet Dailey

and

The House on Seventh Street by Karen Vorbeck Williams

I could swear that I had requested The house on Seventh Street on Netgalley, but my request had been denied. So, I was excited when I spotted it on the Read Now list. So, I started to read it while already reading Long Tall Christmas.

I just got another badge from Netgalley

Alright, I finished another one.

I received this copy of Once Upon a Fairy Tale: A Collection of 11 Fairy Tales Inspired Romances from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review

I found this to be a delightful collection. There is a romance in this collection for everyone.

Well, I started reading Once Upon a Fairy tale: A Collection of 11 Fairy Tale Inspired Romances  instead of Long Tall Christmas last night.

So far they are pretty good. As always some of the tales are better than other. Hold on just a couple of days and I'll update with some of my favorites in the collection.

I received this copy of The Art of Ruining a Rake from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

I'd started reading this book expecting a quick, buzz through romance. I was charmingly surprised to discover that it was a much deeper and richer book than I'd anticipated.

Oh, I did finish Linda Lael Miller's Montana Creeds, Logan. as well as Montana Creeds, Dylan.

They were both exactly what I like when I am listening to an audio book. Then I like a series where you get to know not only the main characters of the book, but the cast of characters surrounding them. Anticipating the upcoming books involving the others on the periphery. And the same narrator is a huge bonus.

I started Linda Lael Miller's Montana Creeds, Tyler. But, I just couldn't get into that one. Maybe, once again, it was just my mood.

So I moved on to a different genre.


Charlaine Harris' A Fool and his Honey.

I started off this week expecting to read so much more than I have.

I'd list a million excuses, but the real reason is the most obvious. I was lazy. I just couldn't seem to get caught up in it. It has nothing to do with the reading material at hand, and everything to do with me.

Have you ever felt like that?

Unfortunately I didn't spend much time at all reading last night. But, tonight I plan on making that up. I just finished painting and I will be starting to read just after dinner.

I am so excited I am now up to three, yes that is three badges on Netgalley,

I've been known to read a little bit of everything from Young Adult to Classic Literature.

Currently I am reading The Art of Ruining a Rake by Emma Locke.

Not sure what I think of it yet as I just started it last night after finishing What to Do With a Duke by Sally MacKenzie which I had thoroughly enjoyed after all of the fantasy/Sci-fi that I had just finished reading.

I also listen to audio books while doing any type of work around the house.

On my player at the moment is Linda Lael Miller's Montana Creeds, Logan.

I've been reading books through Netgalley for about a month now, and I am truly enjoying it immensely. It has allowed me to discover some new, unheard of authors. Some of which I plan to watch for further work from.

Just trying this out to see what it's like
