The past friday, 29th June 2007, was the day when 2 major bookstores are offering discounts storewide. And it's also the day I made my record of buying the most books in a day.
Showing off what I got in the order I took from the shelves:
I read her novella in
Wildest Dreams. Loved it, wanted more, got this book, am very happy now.
I was so happy to see
The Art of Seduction! It's supposed to be out on Feb'07, so I expected to see the book on the shelves latest by April (it takes approx. 1-2 mths for books released in the states to reach major bookstores here in lil' Singapore), but I had to wait 4 months! Till end June. Begining July. Argh.
I saw this book a long time ago on the shelves, but didn't buy it because I wasn't into paranomals. But it's a different story now.
When I lay my fingers on this book, I was silently screaming in my head: "OMG! OMG! OMG!OH YES! OH YES! OMG! OH YES! I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS! OMG! OMG!" and so on.
I love the cover art. I love
Erin McCarthy's Vegas Vampires. The first two books in the series are already the best damn funny vampire books I've ever read.
Read the
excerpt for this? It's so damn hilarious.
Karen Kelly did
mention on her blog quite some time ago that she may write about a dark vampire. I'm so looking forward to that!
The title always gives me an image of a man in tuxedo holding a red rose (or a bouquet would be nice).
It's a historial romance, not obvious from the sexy cover. Luckily I came across the sexy
excerpt, if not I might not have wanted to buy this book yet. It's shrink-wrapped too. I wish all books on the stores are shrink-wrapped so I don't have to waste time scrutinizing all copies to find one that isn't destroyed by the rough-handling by inconsiderate browsers.
I saw
Alluring Tales first (an anothology with
Sylvia Day in it too), but I placed it back on the shelf after I spotted this book. Because I was really, really tired carrying 9 books in my hand by now.
Alluring Tales can wait.
It's a sexy book with chocolates mentioned, why shouldn't I get this?

Lastly, my arms/hands/fingers hurt bad carrying 10 trade paperbacks home.
I'm about halfway through Dark Lover now, I love how Wrath is when it comes to Beth. So far my favourite part is when after they did it the first time and a shirtless Wrath as getting ready to leave, and he tells Beth to 'Come here' and he kisses her. This is the time when I fervently wish I was Beth. ☺
And I just went to Janice Maynard's website and clicked on her coming soon in July 2009 book. It's called Mating Game. The cover image is the same as the one used for the mass paperback of Erin McCarthy's Mouth to Mouth. Both are pretty covers, both are great authors. ☺ Hot Mail is out in January 2009! And Erin McCarthy's Flat-Out Sexy is out now. ♥ Three cheers for contemporaries!
