Amie Stuart ~ On the Back Porch

Ok so I”m over at SFC today talking about 10 things I’d like to do before I’m 40. Stop by, weigh in if you feel like it!

Now for a book review…and ya’ll know I write such WONDERFUL reviews *blush*

I’ve been working on Vicki Pettersson’s The Scent of Shadows for about two weeks–it’s a BIG book weighing in at about 450 pages. Yes, yes I’m behind, hell the second book is out already, but I gotta tell ya’ll I LOVED this book! And no I don’t know Vicki, so I’m not a friend just squeeing on her behalf to get you to pick it up….I think this is one of those books Jordan recommended a while back.

If you like stuff like X-men and Spiderman, Painkiller Jane and The Dresden Files, check it out. A warning though for those of you looking for an HEA this is NOT the book for you. Actually the romance aspect of it is sad (and poignant–I felt so sorry for Ben!). However if you can dig a happy ending where the bad guys get beat and the heroine lives to fight another day, you should totally check this out!
