Fleetwood Mac Would Approve

Rumors by Anna Godbersen continues her exploration of turn of the century New York and all of it's high society scandal. Unlike the first book, the second volume in this series does not end on a high note. Things are looking dismal for both of our Miss Hollands' (though one can really no longer claim that title). It will be interesting to see how Ms. Godbersen turns things around for our characters, if she does at all. I certainly hope so. I can't stand to see the bad guys win. I'm really hoping there's some karma at work here, otherwise I might scream. It will be awhile before I read the next book in the series. I haven't even bought it yet and I already have over fifty books to read. Next up: 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea by Jules Verne. Like I've said before, you can never tell what kind of book I'll read next...

Seriously?

So, I gave up on reading The Mammoth Book of Vampire Romance 2 by Tricia Telep. I got through one and a half of the stories and I just couldn't take it anymore. They were awful. If it had been music, it would have made my ears bleed. Thankfully, I have better things to look forward to. I've started reading the second book in The Luxe series: Rumors. I hope this book is not a disappointment. I don't think I could take it.
