Book Review

I am a nerd, as most of you know. I also am a cheater because I listen to books on CD. I do read when I have time, which is not very often. So, I have a funny story about a 'book' (on CD) I just checked out of the Library.
Before I tell you, you have to know I just randomly pick what might sound good, there is no rhyme or reason to my selections. Pretty much, what I'm in the mood for.
So, I found to "New Release" section and there was a cowboy romance called "McKettricks of Texas: Tate" Which is a book about a rancher who is falls back in love with his long lost girlfriend. With some twists etc.
So, it sounded like a summer romance type of thing, which I haven't read in a while. So I listen to it on my way back and forth from work. It was good, until I get a few chapters in. Then OUT OF NO WHERE...there is this DETAILED intimate scene. So, I tried to just push past a little further by fast forwarding...and it keeps going, and going and going. As I'm fast forwarding I'm hearing words that I have never heard of before. It was a whole CHAPTER on this intense love scene...and it was so descriptive. I was blushing and I had to shut it off! I was so embarrassed listening to the little parts that I did hear. Anyway, I can't finish this book! It is awful!
I'm sure glad I didn't have it blaring while I was stopped at an intersession with my windows down! That would have made a great impression on someone.
I guess from now on I should stick with Karen Kingsbury and authors I am sure won't have things like that in there. If anyone has read anything great this summer, let me know. I plan on actually READING while we are at the beach in a few weeks. There is something great about reading a good book and soaking up the sun! With out Sex scenes!
