Bragging about my buds

So in my spare time, (when I have it, which isn't often) I'm an avid reader.  Here recently I have had the good fortune to read two pieces of fiction from two very dear to my heart writers.  So I am going to shamelessly plug their work.....because 1. I can and 2. They sooo deserve it...

I will start in the order in which I read them...
Amor Prohibido by Ellis Carrington  http://elliscarrington.wordpress.com/

I absolutely loved this book...Her characters were likeable and endearing from the moment you meet them...Her paranormal world is steeped in myths and magic.  I literally finished this book in hours, I could not put it down.  I am so looking forward to meeting these characters again in the future.....
Right on and Write on Ellis......I give it 7 out of 5 stars

Second goes to my newest friend Louisa Luigi  http://louisaluigi.wordpress.com/

When I read this I was floored by finding out that this was her first submission...the story is called, The Heist, and though the only books I generally read in m/f are of the paranormal genre...this m/f delighted me...she has a true gift for the written word, and I cant wait to read more from her...even hinting that she totally needs to read more m/m and maybe one day write one of her own...
Right on and Write on Louisa......I also give 7 out of 5 stars.....

And because I really want to do this I am also going to review my very dear and longtime friend Taylor V. Donovan...........For someone who until a year or so ago had never really written anything, this woman rocks!!! her style and storylines will grab you from the get go...she has the first in a series coming out soon, that must be read!! The six degrees and counting series will make you fall in love with her angsty, deep thinking and sometimes goofy men....to check her work out go to Goodreads.com and her site http://sixdegreesandcounting.blogspot.com/  check her out you wont regret it....
she gets 9 out 5 stars.............because to me these ladies cant have enough stars................Enjoy ;)

I have a pile of TBR including Cherie Noel, Kari Gregg and several others....cant wait to get too them
