She is certainly descriptive with the outfits... I am not into the fashion scene so typically I just skim over that kind of stuff... but with Wildest Dreams I soaked in ever detail she gave me since she was describing a whole different world/time. What are you thinking of the book so far? I LOVED it. I thought it was the perfect romantic fairy tale to escape with!
THANK YOU!!! I was thinking about this fic awhile back but couldn't remember the name. I even have it saved but the summary doesn't really help. It just makes me think of the million fluffy meets in the library love stories, not a mute Bella who moonlights in a peep show in her free time.I just came across another published book where the author has sent reviewers to harass anyone that's left a negative review. Seriously. If you can't handle criticism I don't know why you would bother to publish your work. I imagine it's really hurtful to read bad things about something you've created but that should help you to expand your writing in the future and shows you have too much time if you're worried about what strangers on the internet think of your book. You're still getting paid.Kristen Ashley's stories usually grab me from the get go, but it might be a little too whimsical for me. I'm having to force myself to continue. But I'll finish!
LOL! This is why I used the quotes around the "angst". It usually ends up being what some "writer" thinks should be angst. I also quote the writer as most of them really can't write well either. Speaking of angst, I tried to read Pressed for Time. I didn't make it through the first chapter. Though I did read the last one, which was an epilogue. And I started the second to the last chapter. I may read it eventually, but frankly, it starts out really depressing.

Use the SPOILER! Jesus Amen to that sister.... You write it, you publish it, you leave it...not troll the internet reading reviews and then harassing negative reviewers; WTF?
Sorry! But it's in the first chapter!! and I totally forgot how much I love this Emmett!! @Matron it's Jessica Park, writer of Flat-Out Love. I'm just reading reviews on this book on Goodreads and noticed some reviewers have retracted their ratings. I guess she was defending another author, Jamie Maguire and made some comments to reviewers. Then she screencappped a negative review and posted it on her FB account to address the reviewer, in turn letting her fans give their own feedback. These authors need to calm down.
Honestly, it really isn't angsty its really funny! I laughed so much through it...Trust me Ella, if it was angst I'd tell you. It kind of reminds me of Mad Men, you know? Black humour....
Err? Has Quiet completed? I've been waiting for it to.....
Arghhh, Jamie McGuire is a quintessential "Mean Girl" (and yes, I've bought some of her books, but I do love me a bit of Travis ).
Pressed for Time is humorous? Other than Emmett? Because I think his relationship with Rose is going to be very humorous. No, the Edward/Bella story seems a little angsty. But as I said, I only read the first chapter. I think I need to put it on the back burner for a while....
But even Stephen King gets bad reviews on occasion.....
Hiya, I see Redtini has posted the epi to How To Live With a Movie Star. You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login
God. Another one. *Weary sigh*....Do we have a completed copy somewhere?
goshdarnit! it was on my ipad so i thought it was completed! no wonder ella doesnt have an epub version in her google drive. duh good thing i only read the first chapter ... now, what do i read? hey ella, any new or not yet mentioned actorward you've read recently that's good?oh, didn't know she was like that. too bad. i love her books though. if i can't find an actorward tonight, will likely read her Beautiful Oblivion instead.
So are you guys saying Pressed for Time and For the Summer are both on your all-time-fav lists? Wow. I guess I need to get those on the ol' kindle asap. Oilily --- the one you were talking about inhaling the first chapter... was that Pressed for Time?I'm almost finished with Mystery Man and have thoroughly enjoyed it. This action genre with the kidnappings and drug dealers etc isn't really my thing, but how could I not love Cabe! He is just yummy.
Something is seriously off in the Watkins home. And Julie Seagle, college freshman, small-town Ohio transplant, and the newest resident of this Boston house, is determined to get to the bottom of it. When Julie's off-campus housing falls through, her mother's old college roommate, Erin Watkins, invites her to move in. The parents, Erin and Roger, are welcoming, but emotionally distant and academically driven to eccentric extremes. The middle child, Matt, is an MIT tech geek with a sweet side ... and the social skills of a spool of USB cable. The youngest, Celeste, is a frighteningly bright but freakishly fastidious 13-year-old who hauls around a life-sized cardboard cutout of her oldest brother almost everywhere she goes.And there's that oldest brother, Finn: funny, gorgeous, smart, sensitive, almost emotionally available. Geographically? Definitely unavailable. That's because Finn is traveling the world and surfacing only for random Facebook chats, e-mails, and status updates. Before long, through late-night exchanges of disembodied text, he begins to stir something tender and silly and maybe even a little bit sexy in Julie's suddenly lonesome soul.To Julie, the emotionally scrambled members of the Watkins family add up to something that ... well ... doesn't quite add up. Not until she forces a buried secret to the surface, eliciting a dramatic confrontation that threatens to tear the fragile Watkins family apart, does she get her answer.Flat-Out Love comes complete with emails, Facebook status updates, and instant messages
I take it I am not the first to announce this. Sooooooo sorry.
Yes, I inhaled the first chapter of Pressed For Time. Love me some depressed and sarcastic Edward!!!! I'm a sucker for sarcastic and black humor. Don't ask me why I love a depressed Edward so much though...
I didn't have time to continue though. I'm still stuck in Holder's mind at the moment (Hopeless series by Colleen Hoover - Book 2 Holder's POV). Actually I want to flounce and begin Pressed For Time for 2 days now, but I can't stop reading. Sorry but you are not allowed to view spoiler contents. Is the last book "Finding Cinderella" worth reading?Pressed For Time is the next fic I'll read.And yes, For The Summer goes to my all-time-favorite-list! Such a wonderful fic. Exactly my taste. I just read the first outtake in EPOV and it instantly brings back all the feelings!
Oh yeah, these two have been tag teaming each other's negative reviews for years. It's why I never read Park, and stopped after Beautiful Disaster with Mcguire, they're awful.
No! You are. I meant another author that's pulled to publish who should really, in all honesty, not. I just looked at my Calibre library I gave How To Date a 1*
