I am reading Cascade…and loving it! I hope you’re enjoying Waterfall :)<br /><br />Julie, I was really looking forward to both of them too :( I have heard a lot of great reviews for Wake Unto Me though, so maybe it was just me. I don’t think I’ve read a negative review yet.Small Reviewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16072352095510905410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8955420282479112508.post-39112185644700566852011-05-01T19:20:04.848-04:002011-05-01T19:20:04.848-04:00Drats!

I...I hope you like it more than me and your friend. I'll be looking forward to hearing your thoughts. I think the most remarkable thing about it is the cover, which is still making me want to read the book. :PSmall Reviewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16072352095510905410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8955420282479112508.post-40540923622513393232011-04-30T21:18:04.100-04:002011-04-30T21:18:04.100-04:00Aww.

Maybe a little warning would have been better. I hope you like Wake Unto Me more than I did :)<br /><br />Sierra, Thanks! You’re so welcome. You said everything I was thinking. “Forgettable” is the perfect word to describe Steel for me. Aw, that’s such a sweet story :) <br /><br />Missie, The cover of Steel is so pretty! Haha, I’m glad you recognize the importance of acknowledging time travel. I felt kind of silly writing that, but it did really bother me. <br /><br />Logan, I’m disappointed too. Maybe knowing the romance is minimal and the pirates are “kind hearted” will help you? If you do read it I’ll be interested in reading your review. Yes! Good, I knew I could count on you and Missie to make me feel better about my time travel gripe. I want the obvious stick of “Gee, I’m not in Kansas anymore!” Acknowledge it!<br /><br />Nina, It wasn’t fun for me, but maybe it would be for you? I hate to discourage people from reading books just because I didn’t like them. I really enjoyed Princess for Hire too, but I LOVED the sequel!Small Reviewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16072352095510905410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8955420282479112508.post-22967484445052551092011-04-30T08:30:24.225-04:002011-04-30T08:30:24.225-04:00Sorry to hear that about Steel.

You always make me..."Whoopdedo" indeed. <br /><br />You always make me LOL! Well, thanks for the DNF review of Steel. I had it on the TBR simply because of the cover, but hey, time travel is a big deal and should be properly acknowledged. ;)<br /><br />Great week, Smalls!Missie, The Unread Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10548256640926555361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8955420282479112508.post-17634838199152883942011-04-29T12:09:39.102-04:002011-04-29T12:09:39.102-04:00Great "DNF review" - and thanks for the ...Great "DNF review" - and thanks for the little link to my blog! ;) Oh, and just last night my dad was asking me about how my blog is coming along. I started telling him... And it ended with me telling him how you and I love each other's blogs...and he just chuckled at me. He's a man - I don't expect him to understand.
