![]() ![]() The narrator recalls seeing Mustafa among the crowd. Mustafa bought a farm and married Mahmoud’s daughter, but he keeps to himself and no one knows much about him.

After seven years of studying in Europe, the unnamed narrator has returned to his hometown, Wad Hamid, a small village near the Nile in Sudan. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() There are NO shifters in this series, only the OTHER kind of bears. It’s really not my fault, have you even seen those cute bowties he wears?Īfter everything it’s taken to get here, am I going to work up the nerve to come out to my ex-wife and my best friends? Am I ready to shake up my comfortable, simple life and take a chance on Watson? Or am I going to throw a wrench in my own chance for happily ever after? Hardwood is a steamy, seriously so much delicious tension, single-dad, gay awakening, low angst story, which happens to be the third in the Four Bears Construction Series. ![]() It took me over thirty-five years to admit to myself that I’m gay, another seven to find the courage to say it out loud to anyone else, and exactly thirty seconds to develop a massive crush on my daughter’s music teacher. ![]() Is it too late to admit to myself and everyone else that deep down I’m really all about the Hardwood? I’ve spent forty-four years of my life telling the world I’m a carpet man. We have a great excerpt today as well and I’ll be sharing my review soon!įour Bears Construction Series, Book Three Today we are excited to share the Release Blitz for Hardwood by KM Neuhold! I have really been enjoying this series and am looking forward to this book too. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() It’s clear, once you turn the final page, that Abercrombie had the story firmly under his thumb through the entire trilogy. Abercrombie has often stated that The First Law is his riff on all the typical fantasy tropes, twisting them in an ever so subtle satire and this final novel is no exception. ![]() Last Argument of Kings aims at bringing everything full circle and succeeds wildly. It’s refreshing to find an author who can not only finish a story in three books (a rarity in the fantasy genre these days, it seems) but to also do so in a satisfying manner. The final novel in The First Law trilogy, Last Argument of Kings is without a doubt the strongest novel in the cycle and, indeed, one of the strongest finishes to a trilogy I’ve come across in a long time. Say one thing for Joe Abercrombie, say he knows how close a trilogy with panache. By Aidan Moher March 13th, 2008 Last Argument of Kings ![]() ![]() ![]() Maybe tomorrow morning I'll wake up and choose violence and round down, we'll see. I really expected more happy scenes between each couple and instead we got some heavy stuff and unnecessary fights & drama.īUTTTT despite all these issues that I have with this book, I still had a good time (mostly) reading this and I'm feeling generous right now to round up the 3.5 stars. These kind of conflicts can be handled in each couple's full lenght novel. If you decide to write additional novella for each couple, then I expect a lot of domestic fluff and not fights about important milestones like marriage, pregnancy, kids etc. The Legacy is not what I have in mind when I think of an epilogue novel(las). ![]() Love the idea of them being the first book in the series and then, the last book ending with their chapters, but Elle Kennedy did (all) the characters so dirty. So I actually re-read HannahGarrett's novella again and felt sooo disappointed. EDIT: I knew it was coming that one day I wake up and think about this book again and hate most about it. ![]() |
