Two days in a row…

I’m posting a review–sorry about that–but hey, you were dying to read another review, weren’t you??

This one is from Romantic Times Bookclub Magazine. It isn’t up on their site yet, so I’ll just post the last paragraph here. At least I think it is the last paragraph. Someone sent it to me. I don’t subscribe.

“This is a charming romance with humor, convoluted family dynamics,
secrets and warmth. The final outcome is surprising and leaves the
reader with a comfortable sense that there really is good in most
everyone.” –Susan Mobley

I didn’t even have to use any of the those telling little … this time! ;-) Oh, and it was 4 stars–so not top honors (they go to 4 1/2 for anyone who didn’t know) but certainly close enough for me. And much better than the 3 I got last time, but let’s not talk about that right now…

Another good review…

I have been doing really well in review world with Love is All You Need. Top scores everywhere so far. And really, it has nothing to do with me being, uh, selective, yeah that’s the word, in choosing where to send ARCs. ;-)

Anyway, here’s the latest.

Top Chef

Okay, one quick post. Anyone watching this show? I have been and it is actually pretty good. Here’s my comment though–tonight it looks like they are cooking for kids. Has anyone else seen the commercials for it? Is the expression on that one guy’s face priceless or what? I think it is the expresssion every man left alone in a room of kids for the first time has to have. Gotta watch it!

Posts…

I’m blogging at Romancing the Blog today–then tomorrow I’m at Romance Unleashed. Last week, I was at To Be Read. So, if my own blog is a bit slow–I apologize. :)

In other news I also have two contests going on–one as part of Your Virtual Book Bag–scroll down a little to see it and one on my web site contest page. Then starting April 1 we are going to have a contest start at the Romance Unleashed blog!

I’ll check back soon.

Attention Contest enterers :)

If you are trying to post here from AOL, you may have a problem getting the post to show up. I’m not sure why, but AOL has some weird thing it does that Word Press (my blog software) doesn’t like. You may have the same problem if you try and log in to some chats. If you want to post, you need to get out of AOL and post directly from your browser–this should work, but if it doesn’t or you don’t want to mess with it–just email me your answers to lori @ loridevoti.com (no spaces).

Thanks for stopping by!!
