No. 82: Innocent as Sin

Innocent as Sin by Elizabeth Lowell

A newer Elizabeth Lowell - same problems as all her books - irritating dialouge and descriptions. But this story was different and interesting. I am sure I will keep reading her books and keep getting annoyed by them. I never learn :)

No. 81: Fearless Fourteen

Fearless Fourteen by Janet Evanovich

This is the fourteenth book in the Stephanie Plum series. It was great, like all the others, really funny. I like how her books are all kind of similar, but the stories and crazy stuff that happens are different enough to make each book different. I thought this one seemed a little shorter than the others, but I can't be sure.

No. 80: Body Language

Body Language by Suzanne Brockmann

This is an old re-print. These books are never as good as her Navy SEAL books, but it was actually better than most others. She got a little caught up in the "body language" theme and it got kind of annoying in parts. But, I liked it, like all her books.

There is a new SEAL book coming out this summer - yeah!

No. 79: The Girlfriends Guide to Pregnancy

The Girlfriends Guide to Pregnancy by Vicki Iovine

I had read this book when I was pregnant with Ella, and found it again as I was packing up. It was pretty funny, and some good advice. I wish I had read it earlier because most of the book dealt with earlier pregancy than the last two weeks :) Also, the fashion advice was VERY outdated, early 90's, but all in all it was a good read.

No. 78: The Wicked Games of Gentlemen

The Wicked Games of Gentlemen by Jillian Hunter

This was a pretty one - a little more um, explicit than I like, but the story was interesting. I don't usually like books where the guy wants to the girl to be his mistress, but this one was a little better than most. It is a series about a family, which I love, so I might risk reading some more.

No. 77: Honor's Splendor

Honor's Splendor by Julie Garwood

This is an older book, one I have read several times, but it is one of the very few books that has not been packed up for our move so I didn't have lot of choice - I needed something to read! Not as good as her more recent contemporaries or even her newer historicals, but still pretty good.
