O The Dragon and the Pearl is a great cover.
ReplyDeleteFrost Moon is no longer free.
ReplyDeleteI like a good mix of both plot and characters. It has to be interesting on both accounts. If you have ridiculous characters, you don't care about the plot. If you have a stupid plot, the characters won't mesh... so it's a fine line of having a combination of both.
I would so love to get Blood Rights but I am staying away from netgalley right now. Happy reading
ReplyDeleteI got blood rights from NG too, soooo excited :D
ReplyDeleteThe Dragon and the Pearl looks good. I love the cover. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteThe Egyptian looks interesting!
ReplyDeleteRe: Bookie Brunch...both are meaningful but my books much have a stellar plot or fabu characters at a minimum. Certainly, I enjoy a plotless book if it's a great character study but I'm not sure I can enjoy a plot heavy book with thin characters.
ReplyDeletePer the Bookie Brunch Q:
ReplyDeleteI have to be honest here and admit I'm a sucker for epic/awesome plots above all else. Especially the descriptions/detail ...
I want to really be able to feel I am THERE.
While characterization is important, generally I don't have much patience for lengthy, in-depth psychological analyzation, etc.
A little of that can go a longgggggg way.
