I read quite a few romances as a teen that I loved (not naming specifics but there were quite a few Indian Romances that I adored) and really doubt that they could compete with my preferences today. I tried reading a Cassie Edwards book a couple years ago and after forcing myself to read almost half of it I gave it up. I never give up on a book especially one that I have already committed 150 pages of. But I very much enjoyed her books when I was younger....maybe I just didn't have any taste back then. <br /><br />Anyway, about The Sherbrooke Bride, I almost feel that listening to it might have been a poor choice on my part...sometimes the voice the narrator gives each character works and sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes it makes me feel like I want to cover my ears and scream LaLaLaLa! over and over again. Maybe this was one of those times. Maybe I'll try actually reading it one of these days.Christinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06688159386107405546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4045721515772185032.post-48522340391814009522011-06-12T12:39:21.101-05:002011-06-12T12:39:21.101-05:00ROTFLMAO.

Granted, I was a teenager when I read it, but I think it would be interesting to see how I would feel now if I re-read it as an adult, because I get all your points from what I remember about this book.Lynettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16055170355906285621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4045721515772185032.post-30131101299164385712010-12-01T03:21:18.266-06:002010-12-01T03:21:18.266-06:00Gina your post just proves that, yes, Coulter does...Gina your post just proves that, yes, Coulter does have fans and know she has a pretty big following but I just couldn't like this book. I just didn't like the characters. I hated Douglas with a passion. After I read it and took a couple weeks to think about it, I did think that perhaps it was slightly comical that Douglas couldn't figure out why he was not his best while bedding her and then ended up blaming the bed, the room, the house etc for his short comings. But at the time I really only say a jerk who was throwing a temper tantrum because he ended up with a different stranger as a wife instead of the stranger he thought he was getting.Christinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06688159386107405546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4045721515772185032.post-62323395551151733812010-11-29T09:31:07.531-06:002010-11-29T09:31:07.531-06:00She is one of my favorite authors & this was t...She is one of my favorite authors & this was the book that started it all for me!
