Sure Things
July 27, 2006 | Uncategorized
Still polishing, a slow process that fits perfectly into the heated days of July. Reading is my reward. Not research reading. Reading what I fancy.
The latest Lee Child in hardback waits as a special treat.
But I have real life running around to do and need to choose from the paperback TBR pile. I want entertainment – to be swept into a story.
I chose a Rachel Gibson title from my carefully hoarded stack.
Rachel does not disappoint. She’s a sure thing for me. I love her voice. I love the predictability of her stories. I know there will be a sexy bad boy hero. I know there will be a slightly off center heroine. I know she will draw both so perfectly I will think of them as a new couple in my neighborhood. I know they’ll fall in love. I know they’ll be happy even though their happy ending seems impossible. If there are flaws in her stories (no one is perfect) it doesn’t matter because I don’t notice them.
Tomorrow I start on a vintage Johanna Lindsey Prisoner of My Desire
Ms. Lindsey never disappoints either. The story will whirl me into the past, medieval England complete with a dashing Knight and a desperate lady. I expect to be royally entertained.
How about you – are there authors you autobuy, count on for a good read? Who’s on your sure thing list?
