DDS REVIEW: The Secret Circle Trilogy by L.J. Smith

Limecello's reviews of The Secret Circle Trilogy by L.J. Smith
Contemporary Young Adult romance released by Harper Teen Sep - Nov 92, re-released Jul and Dec 08
I own the original trilogy, and decided to review them for a number of reasons. First, I recently re-read them. Next (and more importantly?) Sybil has been pushing the Young Adult angle. Lastly, these books are being republished - the first volume is already out, and the second is coming out in December. Perfect timing, no? Getting to the point - I loved this series. I believe I originally read them shortly after they were published, and I was hooked. Written before the whole paranormal wave, these books toe the line between a contemporary and paranormal YA book. I'm almost surprised I like these books so much, because I generally can't stand series that don't have definite ending with each novel. These books, however, are just that good. Read more

Gwen's reviews of The MacCarrick Brothers Trilogy by Kresley Cole
Historical romances released by Pocket April 2005 - May 2007
Rowrrr! Can you say "alpha males"? I knew you could! This is a very fun, very sexy historical series from one of my fav authors. It features three brothers who think they're cursed to be alone and lonely, otherwise they'll risk their mates' death. Of course, this is all based on a Book of Fates that prognosticates the demise of their loves, as well as some anecdotal evidence. Problem is, the last stanza of the poem/fate is obscured by blood and may very well obviate the curse. So what do they decide? Well, of course, rather than risking someone they love, they choose to be alone. That is, until the mighty MacCarrick johnsons start speaking louder than the curse, then all bets are off and you better lock up your virgin daughters 'cause these brawny Scots are on the prowl!

Sandy M's review of The Buchanan Family Series by Susan Mallery
Contemporary Romances published by HQN Books
Hello, everyone! And welcome to our first Duckies Do Series review!
I've had this series in that big old TBR mountain, as ya'll called it, for a while now. I recently ran across an excerpt from the last book, Tempting, and really liked it, so I had that on my mind when thinking about which series to start with and I think I made a pretty darned good choice.

Are you one of those readers who has a huge, gigantic, monstrous TRB pile? You never know which book to start next because the number of books is overwhelming? Or you start looking for a particular book and when only halfway through the pile you come across that book you were looking for last month and promptly forget about the one you were just searching for? Your TBR isn't that out of control? Well, mine is.
