![]() Home in Time for Christmas $16.95 Although I am a fan of Heather Graham, (her DEAD ON THE DANCE FLOOR is a favorite), I was disappointed in HOME IN TIME FOR CHRISTMAS. While the concept appealed to me, I felt like the characters didn't have enough depth to them to make me care about any of them. Melody, the main female character, had an attitude of 'I'm the only normal one in a family of kooks' that was wearing after awhile, and I didn't particularly like her or care whether she and Jake got together. This book just didn't appeal to me at all. ![]() Unhallowed Ground (Platinum Fiction) $33.95 If you read Heather Graham you know she interjects the paranormal in many of her writing lines or series (in this case the Harrison Investigations). This is an average read for a Graham book. She is a prolific writer so I don't want to spend my time going back through her list of books to find the one's that would fit the next sentence. BUT, this book seemed to be a compilation of many of her other books. The haunted house, the ghosts, the main characters etc. It seemed so familiar that I looked at the publication date a couple of times to make sure I hadn't read it before. Others have rehashed the plot, so I won't. The city of St. Augustine, FL is the back drop for Caleb and Sarah's romance. The author does a good job of dropping in tidbits describing the city and its history to the point where you can visualize this old city and even be motivated to visit some day! She mentions Sarah is a historian, but then she has Sarah buying a house that she has loved forever--one would think Sarah would have taken the time to figure out the history. Caleb Anderson has a tie to the house and some psychic abilities; yet he also shows no curiosity as to why or how. Compared to other books Ms. Graham has written in this series, I did feel she dropped the ball somewhat on the psychic aspects of her main characters. Both of them were evidently gifted with some abilities and you had Caleb denying it and Sarah totally unaware of her gifts. One would have thought since both of them were gifted, just being in the house Sarah purchased would have had little psychic brain farts going off! This isn't a bad read, but it probably won't remain in your keep pile, more as a pass it along read! ![]() Broken $26.98 The ending was confusing. Also, don't expect a very hot sexual scene with Heather Graham. This one is more of a warning against drug use. Or this is a warning to young ladies about what kind of obstacles they can face if they want to head out to Hollywood and be famous. I would skip buying this one, unless you are a huge Heather Graham fan. Or, it would be a good movie to show, IF you have a girlfriend or daughter heading to Hollywood. ![]() Deadly Gift (The Flynn Brothers Trilogy) $7.99 I could not put it down. I was glued to it non stop,i was feeling everything they felt. She did a wonderful job writing this book.I hope she reconsiders ending the trilogy here. I need more Flynn Brothers!!lol |
