4.5 stars. So, I just bought this book from online shop which usually sell many used books. The price is cheap. Just 50000 rupiahs or maybe 4,99 dollars. I decide to read Charming the Prince, first because I really love the blurb, its rare to find character letter for a synopsis. And I'm kinda st...
I enjoyed this. Not the most astounding cliff-hanger type book ever, but it was fun, and I needed some fun today. Rose was sweet, and I liked the other characters as well, so that made up for the somewhat predictable plot in my opinion. I didn't really get how it was supposed to be a sleeping bea...
My first Eloisa James book and... It was ok. To be honest, I was expecting a lot more, possibly because Ms.James is such a big name in the historical romance genre. I felt that the romance between the two main characters, Quin and Olivia was a bit too forced, the ending was a bit too neat for my ...
I have always loved fairy tales but I thought James really pushed to make this a princess and the pea story. I loved that the character thought she was "fat" and didn't appreciate her voluptuous curves until she met a duke who might marry her sister. Olivia has been groomed since birth to be t...
This was my introduction to Eloisa James, the book's description interested me and the author was recommended to me before. I genuinely enjoyed the story and the protagonist was quite interesting to me. Unfortunately the plot was a bit weird, for lack of a better word. Years pass in the span of 1...
3-3.5 stars...Good, but not great...I had heard a lot about Ms James fairy-tale retelling romances and when I saw this on the libraries audio collection, I gave it a try. I liked it and it had some humor. I liked the Cinderella-y parts of the story. She did a great job at reinventing the timeless...
I got about 4/5 of the way through this book before I finally just couldn't stand it any more. This is seriously one of the most awful romance novels I've read in quite some time. Gabriel is an arrogant, womanizing jerk with no redeeming qualities. The whole idea of a man alternately dining wi...
This book is equally as awesome as the cover is appalling (and that is saying something). The author took the character from House and remade him as the main character in a romance novel, and it was SOO much fun to read. Piers' snarky wit had me laughing the whole book through. And the heroine...
WOW! I LOVE this book!! Eloise James has hit all the right marks for me in this one. I've picked up her books before because they were always cheap and cheerful reads on Kobo but "When Beauty Tamed the Beast" is the first I've actively made sure I bought because the story really appealed to me an...
I read this book after having it recommended by a customer in the library, and I'm very pleased I acted upon the recommendation! A fast paced plot, believable characters, a most enjoyable Regency romp. Very entertaining, it pulled me through it in a matter of a few days - I even spent a whole e...
I've put off reading this because, frankly, I hate the cover. I know it's won awards, but I there's just something about it...I picked this book up and read it straight through in one day. It was a lovely story, replete with Shakespeare, kilts, a brogue, a red-haired hero who is (*gasp*) a virgin...
I loved the books in this series so far, especially #2 and couldn't wait to start the next one. I'm so disapointed right now and skipping through the last quarter of the book to get to the end. If this book is your first romance by miss James. Please don't judge all of them by this one.Spoilers a...
One of my 2014 reading goals was to read a romance novel. I picked The Ugly Duchess because I thought I would enjoy the Regency setting and because it got excellent reviews.What I learned is that I do not like romance novels. This book is quite well written and seems well researched. I might have...
Seperti biasanya, James membuat percakapan yang, pada awalnya, membuatku sulit untuk mengerti sehingga aku sering berpikir, "mungkin seperti inilah cara berbicara orang Inggris, mengucapkan satu namun artinya lain lagi."Di bagian 'bertemu kembali' rasanya cepat sekali walau sudah 41 hari, tapi su...
Y Eloisa James lo hace de nuevo :D Cuando La Bella domestico a La BestiaUn titulo que le va como anillo al dedo, Piers sin duda cumple todos los requisitos de bestia no todo en su fisico pero si en su acida prsonalidad La Piscina!! Esa Bendita piscina!!! La chispante personalidad de Linnet realme...
