Jan (jan130) | 2598 comments Well after all of the mucking around, The Duchess Deal has suddenly become available on amazon australia. Yes, it's live now! Thank goodness.

I'm currently reading a great ARC (reading a non-HR for a change LOL) called A Charm of Finches but when I've finished that I'll be ready to start with ADD.

How are you going with this one, Andrea? Any news on when it will be available to you?


Andrea AKA Catsos Person (catsosperson) | 1635 comments Jan,

Anyone ready to begin the b-r or this book?

Andrea- thought I would move the discussion here. Which Stella Riley should we BR? And when might work for you? I honestly don't think October or November will work well for me.

Maybe we should put this off til next year if Oct/Nov are (understandably) bad for you. These last three months of the are really busy in RL with family stuff as well as wrapping up/completing work Stuff too.

I've read this! It was enjoyable. I remember I had never tried any of the authors before at the time and I ended up trying more by Kate Noble, Vanessa Kelly, and Anna Campbell as a result! It was a cute collection and one I hope you enjoy! I'll watch for your updates to see what you all think :)

Yes! So glad to hear it :) It was one of my first kindle "purchases" so it holds a special place in my heart. I think it is so cool that after all this time, the author still have it available for free.

The Lady in Red (Season for Scandal, #3.5) by Kelly Bowen

NOTE: GR has it listed as part of the Season for Scandals series but on KB's website it is listed as the first in her new series Devils of Dover.

Discussion here: The Lady in Red


Andrea AKA Catsos Person (catsosperson) | 1635 comments Loriidae,

I’m in.

It costs only 99 cents in the US. The price certainly isn’t a deterrent.

I wasn't planning on joining this one, but I actually saw it's available to listen through my library. I've read it before, but may tag along.


message 141: by Ursula (new)

Ursula (ursi) | 283 comments I have The Duke's Tattoo on my Kindle but haven't read it yet. I am not doing the Sarah MacLean BR as I have read it before and hated the heroine (!) so will read the Tattoo one now and move on to the others- if you guys think they are any good???
I have lots of reading time in January, until school starts again here in OZ :)
