It is worth reading and I will read the next in the series. :) I'll just try to make sure it's not on the heels of a Kristen Ashley book!

I've loved each and every one. They are crazy, over-the-top fun and characters that have become my friends. (it's set in and around Denver - where I live - so that's a bonus!) See, my enjoyment of Hunting in Bruges was totally affected by my Rock Chick hangover.... ;)Bookworm Brandeenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6125233179936753205.post-57904124735713888212014-12-23T05:28:18.676-07:002014-12-23T05:28:18.676-07:00It's a shame you didn't get into this as m...It's a shame you didn't get into this as much as you hoped.

I like how you mention the author described the city well, I love it when authors describe thigns well enough so you can really get a feel for the place.

Lorna reviewed this one on the blog, and enjoyed it quite a bit; however I 100% understand your book hangover comment which makes Hunting in Bruges a tough call.
