Right off the bat, I was turned off by the main character. Her internal voice, actually her external too didn't match her profession.

When I am doing well on catching up with reading, I fall short at writing.

And, I usually have plenty of interruptions as well! The other problem is that the majority of my reviews I write long-hand, then type and edit! It's a very long process, but it is what I find that works the best for me. I am so old school!! :)Tif Sweeneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06015299390676538748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7450516531437589191.post-43236068318437045012012-07-21T13:05:43.855-06:002012-07-21T13:05:43.855-06:00If I could write reviews quickly, I'd have mor...If I could write reviews quickly, I'd have more done. Do you know it took me three hours the other day to write one!?! I think too much when I'm putting a review together.

I do need to spend some time this weekend getting more reviews written though.<br /><br />I can't wait to hear what you think about the Elliot book. I have not heard of her and I always love discovering new authors!!Tif Sweeneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06015299390676538748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7450516531437589191.post-88305903816119850822012-07-19T14:05:03.424-06:002012-07-19T14:05:03.424-06:00Great job!

It was a short one, but hey, it's a book. I intended to finish reading one of the two others I had on the list and then the Amazon Vine Newsletter came in. There was a book that caught my eye: "Chilled" by Kendra Elliot. It's book two in a series, so I went looking for book one. I found that I can borrow book one (Hidden) as part of the Prime program. So I've ditched my other two books and started reading this one...lol. I'm excited. This is a new to me author! :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7450516531437589191.post-82429204812591614542012-07-19T13:42:54.144-06:002012-07-19T13:42:54.144-06:00Heather ...
