Watched Wonder Woman last night, which was better than I expected but not amazing. The only reason I decided to watch it in the theaters was because it cost me only $4 (with a promo code).

Read the following:

  • White Hot by Ilona Andrews
  • Elias in Love by Grace Burrowes
  • Tartan Two-Step by Grace Burrowes

Elias in Love was…. hard for me to read. I couldn’t sympathize with the heroine or hero, and I actually sympathized more with one of the secondary characters who was kind of made out to be a villain by the heroine (she’s rather… dumb? ignorant? too much a stupid damsel in distress, really). The plot and the location hit a little too close to home for me, which is why it took a while for me to process it.

While I liked White Hot, once again, I was more interested in a secondary character than the main two characters. My problem with this book is that Rogan in the Hidden Legacy series is too similar to Curran from the Kate Daniels series. Both men are overprotective and over powering, do things without consulting the heroine, and they have extremely similar backgrounds. If not for the secondary characters I felt the book would have fallen flat… then again, the actual story plot is decently intriguing. At least the younger siblings and cousins were entertaining.
