Review: Beauty and the Beast by Hannah Howell

by Keira 02.08.2011

Beauty and the Beast by Hannah Howell is not a spectacular read. It is however a pretty solid read. I found several segments to be unnecessary and jumpy and predictable in others. This Highlander romance contains all the elements of the sub-genre including bride stealing, thwarted love, revenge plotting, and battle. Thayer Saiturn is known [...]

Review: This Rake of Mine by Elizabeth Boyle

by Keira 09.18.2009

This was definitely not one of my favorite novels. Not only did Boyle use hair color to give stereotypical traits to the heroine, but the big reveal didn’t feel so big! Major bummer! As Susan would say thank goodness I’m FF (finally finished)! A kiss can change the fates of nations. It certainly changed the [...]

Official Twilight Movie Trailer #2

by Keira 10.13.2008

The first trailer I saw in theaters looked so incredibly hokey. I wasn’t sure I was going to want to see it despite how much I loved the novels. This trailer is dynamite in comparison. I’m growing to think of Robert Pattison as Edward. It’s just taken awhile. Call me crazy, but I always pictured [...]
