*ahem*
Okay, the month of May scares me. You'll see what I mean in a minute.
1. Ashes of Midnight by Lara Adrian-I still need to review. Would give it a C-
2. The Madness of Lord Ian Mackenzie by Jennifer Ashley-Gave it a C+
3. At Last Comes Love by Mary Balogh-Would give this a B-. It was a very sweet love story and a great continuation in the Huxtable series.
4. Seducing An Angel by Mary Balogh-This one deserves a B. Almost done. Con's story comes out next month (I think).
5. Witch Fire by Anya Bast-I'd give this a C. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't phenomenal either. The heroine was kind of an idiot. The sex was hot though. :)
6. Witch Blood by Anya Bast-C+. Better. Still not perfect. Will be getting the others in the series though. My curiosity won't let me not finish. Bad Bridget!
7-9. The Black Jewel Trilogy by Anne Bishop-Wow. That is all I have to say about this series. I count this as 3 books though, just an FYI. I'd give it a B+. Excellent, but I had some issues. Will need to review this one too. *headdesk*
10. Confessions of a Little Black Gown by Elizabeth Boyle-Eh...C. Wasn't great. Didn't even realize I'd read the previous book in the series until I read the next one. Not very memorable.
11. Memoirs of a Scandalous Red Dress by Elizabeth Boyle-C+. This is the same issue I've had with the previous books I've read by Ms. Boyle...they're all very much of the same "type."
12. Under Fire by Jo Davis-After reading book 1 and really enjoying it, hoped I'd like this one just as much. Yeah, not so much. It wasn't awful, but it just didn't have the sizzle book 1 did. Give it a C-
13. Holly's Inbox by Holly Denham-Need to review for Sourcebooks. It was very unique. Enjoyed it. Wasn't like reading a book though. Will review on Monday.
14. The Art of French Kissing by Kristin Harmel-I really liked this. Simple and sweet. Give it a B-
15. Once Dead, Twice Shy by Kim Harrison-Need to review. Off the top of my head would give it a B-/C+. It was good but definitely had some issues. Will review shortly (probably this weekend).
16. This Duchess of Mine by Eloisa James-B+. Really enjoyed it. I love this series. Need to review to go into more details. Lovely story and I can't wait for Villiers. :)
17. Practice Makes Perfect by Julie James-B
18. A Dangerous Thing by Josh Lanyon-Review here
19. Fatal Shadows by Josh Lanyon-Review here
20. Loving Mr. Darcy by Sharon Lathan-Will review in a few months (when I'm supposed to). That being said...loved it!
21. Lord of Pleasure by Delilah Marvelle-Will be reviewing shortly. It was an E-ARC. She loves me. :D
22-29. The Highlander series by Karen Marie Moning-My thoughts here
30. The Betrayal by Pati Nagle-DNF. Could NOT get into this book to save my life, which I find very sad. Interesting premise, boring execution.
31. Revealed by Kate Noble-Really enjoyed it. The Book Smugglers were right...again. I'd give it a B+
32. Compromised by Kate Noble-Liked this one as well. Not as much as Revealed though. I'd say B.
33. Desire Untamed by Pamela Palmer-C-. It was one of those books where I knew I shouldn't enjoy it as much as I did and yet I did...if that makes sense. It definitely had its issues, but I'm curious what book 2 will be like
34. Nemesis of the Garden by Cricket Starr-Eh...C-
35. Lover Avenged by JR Ward-B-
36. Dream Machine by Jane Rylon-E-Book. Wasn't all that great. C
37. Pack Challenge by Shelly Laurenston-Interesting. I'd say B-
38. Go Fetch by Shelly Laurenston-B-
39. Here Kitty Kitty by Shelly Laurenston-C
40. Sexy by Design by Avery Beck-Talk about a disappointment. Could have been something and ended up being not-so-good. The sex was mechanical at best and the plot dragged. D
41. Faefever by Karen Marie Moning-A-. LOVED it!
And there you have it. My reads for May 2009

40 books? Goodness girl. Seriously, what is your secret? The Black Jewel Trilogy was enough to wipe me out mentally for days.
Have fun with all the reviews you plan to write ;)
Wow you did read a lot of books in May - are those aren't including re-reads? Impressive! :)
