Guilty Pleasure: Toddlers and Tiaras

I recently started throwing Toddlers and Tiaras (T&T) on as background noise for when I work.  The theory is that I would never in a hundred years want to seriously watch this show, so I will not pay any attention to it.  Hopefully, I don't get any funny ideas like dressing up any of my future kids like small wedding cakes and parading them in front of strangers for judgement. = )

Arrow's Flight by Mercedes Lackey

I finally got around to this little gem that a friend loaned me years ago during law school.  I had forgotten all about until the other day when I ran out of books to read due to holds at the Library.  Goddess, am I glad I read this!  I consider myself a Fantasy lover and can't believe I hadn't read this series before.  It is a great book with romance, magic, and did I mention romance?  I can't wait to finish reading the books I currently have and get my hands on the next book in the series.

Naamah's Kiss by Jacqueline Carey

I finished reading Naamah's Kiss by Jacqueline Carey and this book definitely does not disappoint!  I own several of her books, along the kushial line and enjoyed those all also.  This book is kept within that same world.  No spoilers here, just want to say its a must read. Oh yeah, and I placed the books following this one on hold at the library!  I can't wait!

Wench by Dolen Perkins

I just finished reading Wench by Dolen Perkins-Valdez. First, I definitely recommend this book. It is a complex look at the relationship between four slave women and their white slave owners who would take them up north to vacation at a resort. Based on true events. The resort even exists and later became one of the first African American Universities. Powerful book.
