  Romancing the Beat: Story Structure for Romance Novels How to Write Kissing Books, Book 1 By:  Gwen Hayes I enjoyed this book but the 80's play list at the start of every chapter kind of set me off. But the bits of info I did get from it are going to be use full in my own writing. I give this book 3 out of 5 it not life changing but if you want a quick over view on how to write a simple romance then give it a try. I know writing  is not simple  but it might help. Happy reading. 

Vary Bad wizards by C.M. Stunich

  This was one book I waited for when it came out. I read it and well I was expecting hot sex and I got. nothing the vary bad wizard left me wanting more and not in a good way. I love the idea of a sexy wizard of Oz but this one fell flat for me. I want to read the next one in hopes that it is better because maybe this author needs to build up to something because gropes and kisses here and there just don't do it for me. better hope for the next book in the series. 2.5 stars out of 5. love the idea hope for a better book happy reading all.  

The Radium Girls: The Dark Story of America's Shining Women by Kate Moore

The Radium Girls: The Dark Story of America's Shining Women by   Kate Moore   I wound give this story 5 out 5 stars. It is a story that made me thing and feel. And stop and look at the page going what the hell did I just read. The fact that it was about real women. who lost there teeth and jaws to this to  Radium. Women and girls who lost there life's to radium. I know that from the start of the book having know that but reading about the  pain and struggle that these women went though to prove it was something bad. It was shocking and down right gross at parts of this book almost made me put it down but I wanted to find out if they got it because I knew they did but in the story your with them. when they lose a person in there group to it you feel the sadness too. If you like historical fiction I say go for it if not maybe try it I'm big on romance but I still loved this book. Happy reading.

Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen

Image
Pride and Prejudice by   Jane Austen Another classic down for the year.  And I ready enjoyed the story of Elizabeth and Jane Bennett and  there younger sisters  love stories with there men they love or think they love.  Most people have seen the movies or web series that  tell the love stories. I know I have and even tried to read it once in high school and was  unable to get into it.    This is a story  about the prideful  feeling of people that make people want to change there lives in this  story of love and anger with people.  And the also prejudice about people who are different then each other. But in the end Elizabeth and Mr.     Darcy find love for each other and are happy for it.  This is a good read so I give this 4.5 out of 5. I have loved this story forever so maybe knowing it made me like it less. I wound say if you want to get into classics give it a try. So happy reading.
