7/2/21 - listened to the audiobook this time around and I didn't care of it nearly as much as the ebook. I also enjoyed the story less this time...

Rereading with the Mostly Lesfic group!
Just finished and still love it. Same rating as first read.

Really enjoyed this book! See my review at http://reviews.c-spot.net/archives/35 (

This book was okay to me. I felt like Leone was acting childish when trying to woo Amy. Rather than taking things out and letting Amy feel as though she cares, Leone would push her way into Amy’s life and I didn’t really like that. (

It seems that everyone and their girlfriend has already read this except me. Its been in my reading queue forever. The author has just released a 4th book for the series and the good reviews are in.

Once I started reading Goldenseal, I suddenly recalled that I HAD read this before but never bothered to finish it. The reason why is--In the first few chapters of the book, the lead character is annoying as hell. Fortunately, things get better and the intriguing mystery and suspense is enough to save the book.

I have finished reading all four books in the series and I can definitely say it is very worthwhile to wade through the first one. (
