What Amy Did On Her Day Off

Either I've had a really good day where I've done exactly nothing, or I'm coming down with something. Today I couldn't even be bothered to change out of pajamas once I'd woken up earlier this afternoon -- lazy, you might say, but viva la nightshift life, and I worked last night. So, I've spent the day, laying around and finished up a truly AWESOME book (heads up - fans of romantic suspense have GOT to check out Kate Brady's debut, ONE SCREAM AWAY!). Hopefully I'll get my thoughts together enough tomorrow to post a review for this shocking book -- I've read a lot of things, and I see a lot at work, but even I was stunned by the shock and awe Kate Brady has for her readers. Sucky part is, the next book, LAST TO DIE and the second book in what is to be a series, doesn't come out until next July. Unfair!

So now I'm left at odds with what to read next. It's not as if I don't have anything to read, I just have too much to read! But that's ok, I'm a book ho and I'm happy like that. John keeps threatening a storage unit, and I may have to cave before our bedroom floors do...

I've been playing with the idea of reading the Chelsea Cain series since the third book comes out soon, but I keep putting that off. I have no doubt I'll enjoy it, but it's like saving the best for last. Or I could read one of the many historicals I've been neglecting. Decisions, decisions, decisions...

Before publishing this post, I just realized what a truly boring installment it is. Egads, sorry to not be thrilling! and new! and shiny! but I just can't invest any oomph into my originality tonight. Ugh...

LOL..it is a lovely post. I have too much to read too...whoever thought I would complain about that?!?

I voted on a historical, and it's a goodie too. Hero's practically in love with heroine from page one.

I've heard lots of good things about the Kate Brady - and goody for me, I picked it up at RWA. But alas, like you - I have too much to read. Really....too much to read. It's a sickness I tells ya.

And read the Chelsea Cain books woman!

Alright, Wendy, I was going to dare you to read the Brady book next, and then I'd read the Cain book when you did. But is that a fair challenge?

Amy: Not right now it's not. I am soooooo behind on my reviewing. Seriously....behind. The Brady is near the top of Ye Olde TBR mountain though.

Wendy, I'm currently ignoring the couple books I have for review. But they're staring right at me...*sigh*
