More Sexy Sex Novels from Lorelei James

Fiction

What You Need by Lorelei James. Well... maybe this is a straightforward romance, not one of the sexy sex ones.  Wealthy man dates his employee. I spoke to Lori Armstrong (James is her pen name) at a Bouchercon, she said her romance books way outsold her mystery/thriller novels.

Find Her by Lisa Gardner. Gardner writes a lot of books and is kind of a big deal. I'm surprised she does not have a bigger author photo.

Black Rabbit Hall by Eve Chase. I know nothing about this book but I the cover sure is nicely done. The cover makes me want to read this. page 172 says, "Lorna parts the paper like curtains, smiles."

Violent Crimes by Philip Margolin. I am fairly certain I have never read a Margolin book. Let me take a look at his bib. Nope, not a one. I did watch a film version.

Nonfiction

Hiking Michigan's Upper Peninsula by Eric Hansen, revised by Rebecca Pelky. I was told the Porpupine Mountains are a nice visit.  Good like finding them in the book though because there is no index. The "Porkies" are in Gogebic and Ontonagoin Counties and the Ironwood/Ontonagon area lists 13 hikes.

Holiday Delights!: recipes, crafts, and gifts by Hearst Books. This Christmas themed so I assume this was back-ordered.

DVD Drop

DVD

Full House: the complete sixth season starring [actors]. I have several snide comments about this program. I was in a trivia contest last week and one question asked "What is the dog's name in Full House." One of the trivia team members has three daughters, so he knew the answer.

Chi-Raq starring Angela Bassett. Spike Lee retells Lysistrata with a Chicago setting.


Straight Outta Compton starring [many people]. Biopic about rap N.W.A.



Straight Outta Compton starring [the same actors as before]. I bought a second copy by mistake. There are a ton of holds so I added it to the collection.



Straight Outta Compton starring [the same actors but in higher definition]. One of the orders was the DVD-Blu-Ray combo. This is the Blu-Ray.
