I'm not one to read a ton of HR, but this sounds good! Plus I already ship these not-in-love-at-first characters ;) Alsooo, I love Brilliance Audio! They have great narrators and well-done audios :) As for Blank Slate, you said fun and quick and I just stared at the cover since that is NOT fun and quick, but as I read more of your thoughts--LOL! I can see how it could be ;) Glad you enjoyed both of these in general :) Love this feature, Rach!Siirihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18265532869057616598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1019785638850450889.post-26092109491827162952014-09-17T01:28:51.730+01:002014-09-17T01:28:51.730+01:00I have a thing for Highlanders now after reading O...I have a thing for Highlanders now after reading Outlander and the MacKinnon Ranger's series. And I like the sound of Blank Slate (yay for snarky banter). I'm impressed that you are able to put your thoughts into a short paragraph. I don't think that's even possible for me lol.

I love a romance of arranged marriage and I haven't read too many Scottish historical romances so this seems like the perfect one to begin with. I'll have to pick up the audio version too! ;) Thanks for putting it on my radar, Rachel, and lovely short and tweet reviews!

However, I think this idea is a terrific one as it does help you to be punchy with what you want to say and which elements you liked. It's also a lot quicker and easier to read than full reviews. These sound like they were fun reads, pleased to hear you enjoyed them so much, Rachel!

(Although, I would never want that to happen to me!!). <br />Black Slate also looks like a lot of fun! I'm always up for an opposites attract romance! :) <br />I love the idea of short and tweet reviews, Rachel.

For me it's either that I cannot stop writing or I have nothing to say. I've never knew middle in life, anyway. But I really like the sound of Highland Surrender! Sounds like Amanda Quick's stories to me. Great reviews, Rachel :)Tanja - Tanychyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15084789780467257259noreply@blogger.com
