This week on the Romance Writers Weekly blog hop we answer the question, "What are you reading now and why did you choose it?"
This is a hard one. Currently, I'm binging Christmas books to help me stay in the mood for the book I'm writing--and the one I'm writing after that--which are both set at Christmas. I'm plowing through books at a rate of one per day, and have been for months. So they do tend to blur a little.
The book I most recently finished was The Christmas Date by Camila Isley, which was cute. It's the second of her Christmas books that I've read.The other was Christmas Caroline--which is set in New York/New Jersey, my old, old stomping grounds. I haven't been in awhile, but I'd still be very surprised to learn that, in reality, if you exit the Lincoln Tunnel on the Jersey side now you immediately find yourself in an affluent suburb. It's been an urban landscape since before my birth. My suspension of disbelief foundered pretty immediately, after that.
One book that I read recently that stands out was The Afterlife of Holly Chase by Cynthia Hand. That was brilliant. Set mostly in NYC, with a side of LA (both of which I've lived in) there were no, "what the hell is she even talking about?" moments.
Now, head on over to Leslie Hachtel's page to learn what she's reading. And be sure to check out her book, Murder Most Notorious.
