Not all of their choices appealed to me, but my daughters and friends and I don’t agree on favorites either. That’s what makes our conversations about books so interesting!

It helps me remember as well as gives me suggestions…or at least encourages me to grab that book I may have put off reading.

I also always find it interesting to explore our differences. If the annual poll still included “Authors Others Love that You Don’t Get”, Meredith Duran may have been my choice. Appreciate her writing skills but don’t love her stories.

Looking forward to the poll results now!! :)

I enjoyed Bound By Your Touch when I read it, but for the life of me, I couldn’t remember the plot or the characters. Huh.

I’m sorry to see no one mentioned Scandal by Carolyn Jewel, which I found to be a sublime reading experience.

Butterfly Tattoo by Deidre Knight was easily the most moving contemporary novel I read this year.

Archangel’s Kiss by Nalini Singh is another book that blew me away. I love how she is able to worldbuild while never losing site of the romance. And this world is so vastly different from the Psy/Changeling world.
