Mostly because I always have it and it's one less item that I need to carry around. My interest definitely peaked when you talk about historical accuracy, the way the plot grabbed you from the beginning, as well as a romance that has stood out to you. Sometimes the subtle ones are my favorite as well! Also setting this book 2 years after the previous is a great idea. I will certainly be putting these on my TBR!Lauren @ Love is not a trianglehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15388832613855107816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3523300192245025551.post-84515391444035894522013-10-26T16:18:43.296-04:002013-10-26T16:18:43.296-04:00I just found the first one in this series and look...I just found the first one in this series and looks good. thanks for the reviewTerryLynnJohnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08380207155608982319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3523300192245025551.post-39879871409228516592013-10-25T15:59:25.284-04:002013-10-25T15:59:25.284-04:00I read books on my iPhone all the time, Keertana! ...I read books on my iPhone all the time, Keertana! Sometimes I have wait time at work and I make use of that! Glad to see you enjoyed this duology so much. It's nice that you waited to read book one for a bit and then you could read this right after. I love it when I do that!

I love that Katherine seems like a strong heroine in her own right, independent of romantic relationships or helpful friends. But it's also lovely to hear that the romance is a strong point, and that it is realistic. You've convinced me that I need to dig this one out of my overflowing book case and give it another go.

And, I never thought about it, but YOU'RE RIGHT! I've found that so many series take place over the course of just a few weeks or months, which really doesn't do much for me or the characters. Hmm...interesting observation. I definitely think the two year time difference with this book strengthene it. Anyway, I can't wait to see what you think of this series upon second-thought! :)Keertanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01071392026876644282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3523300192245025551.post-74133363269585669852013-10-23T13:10:26.283-04:002013-10-23T13:10:26.283-04:00I actually have the first book, but I gave up on i...I actually have the first book, but I gave up on it after about 10% because it just didn't grab me at the time. Clearly I'm an idiot. The characters sound fascinating, and I love that there's a two year period between books. I hate it when entire series happen over two or three months.<br />I'll definitely give this another chance.

So glad that despite a few flaws you still really enjoyed this one overall Keertana. And a huge YAY for no cliffhangers:) *happy dance*Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14199685365145765394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3523300192245025551.post-62133833277479297272013-10-23T04:03:57.894-04:002013-10-23T04:03:57.894-04:00I can't wait to read this book.
