REVIEW Indy Savage is a screw up, but I mean that in Lee Nightingale’s most “Isn’t-Indy-cute” sorta way. Oh. My. God. Why did I wait so long to read this book? I haven’t laughed so hard reading a book since Bridget Jones was locked in a Thai prison singing Like A Virgin in her Victoria’s Secret Wonderbra. This book made me laugh out loud, like guffaw out loud, really – more times than I could count. Kristen Ashley is a brilliant writer because she paints a scene in a book like an artist paints a picture.

REVIEW: Real Ugly and Get Bent by CM Stunich
DESCRIPTION Turner Campbell is an asshole. I f*cking hate him. But I can’t get enough either. He sings like an angel and f*cks like a devil. If I could, I’d run away and never look back because to tell you the truth, I think this man might be the death of me. *** Naomi Knox is a bitch. I can’t f*cking stand her.

If I could, I’d f*ck her good and forget all about her, but to tell you the truth, I think this woman might be my last saving grace. REVIEW Real Ugly is about swearing, sex, and drugs. Oh, and rock and roll. And murders. And stabbing people to death. And shitty fucking foster homes, and worthless lead singers who screw anything that moves, and band mates that make you… Read more »
