But I could click through it and still post. My latest issue (that just cropped up today!) has to do with image posting - so I'm hoping the problem is dealt with soon. But for now I have a work-around, just requires me to do things a little differently than my normal workflow.<br /><br />And yeah for getting your book read even if you didn't post!Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12485867264936716806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-350052669699480502.post-46003869750564373712014-01-23T12:32:43.963-08:002014-01-23T12:32:43.963-08:00So, get this, I tried to go and post something abo...So, get this, I tried to go and post something about the book I read for this month's challenge (yes, I did read one, and, yes, it was done before the deadline), but Google is giving me an error on the page and I can't post anything. Argh! But I can put up a spiffy post title. Oh la la! <br /><br />Anyway, for January, I read Heather MacAllister's Never Say Never, one of the last Temptations in 2005. Was it good? Sure. But for some reason I was left wanting a bit more -- maybe it's that minor aversion to categories I have and not feeling there's always enough room for the story. A minor minor thing, but there you have it.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03931747691173729051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-350052669699480502.post-75552441521879678332014-01-23T12:31:15.456-08:002014-01-23T12:31:15.456-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03931747691173729051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-350052669699480502.post-31537964014208028062014-01-15T17:43:48.789-08:002014-01-15T17:43:48.789-08:00Lynn: It was good!

I've had good luck with Wallace's books in the past - I need to go rooting around in her backlist....<br /><br />Nath: I love the boss/secretary trope, even though in real life they can be a complete disaster and/or lawsuit waiting to happen. They have that fairy-tale quality to them, I think. Nice thing about this one is that while the author does sequel-bait a bit (two of the heroine's coworkers will eventually get their own books), there's not any of that cutesy-small-town-crap here. Story starts in New York, and the bulk of the action is set around Boston.Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12485867264936716806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-350052669699480502.post-10149828147618759072014-01-15T15:51:48.677-08:002014-01-15T15:51:48.677-08:00Hey, if you give it an A-, it's worth a look! ...Hey, if you give it an A-, it's worth a look!

I was home sick that day, and My Man called to check on me - and all I could think was "How dare he interrupt me while I'm reading this book!" LOL<br /><br />Hils: There's the business trip "stuff" but honestly it just serves the purpose of moving the plot forward. The meat of the conflict really is all about the internal character angst. Great characters, great conflict, I couldn't get enough of this story while I was inhaling it.Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12485867264936716806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-350052669699480502.post-11885904632877638012014-01-14T12:51:40.962-08:002014-01-14T12:51:40.962-08:00Awesome review.
