Silk is for Seduction, Loretta Chase

This book is a delight. I have never not enjoyed a romance novel by Loretta Chase; all her heroines are smart and her heroes are good men. This book is a little bit ridiculous in as much as the ending is SO insanely unlikely, but hey, it does everything I want in a romance novel. He's a nice guy who is both tempermental and bossy without being a total ass; she's got hopes and dreams beyond just getting married. They have more in common than just great sex. The woman he ends up not marrying is also great and spunky and lovely. (I assume this is the first in a series because our heroine has two younger sisters and our hero has a best friend who makes <3__<3 eyes at one of them.) No one forces anyone to have sex or is nasty to anyone or lies to anyone to get them into bed. Just two decent people who fall in love, overcome obstacles, and hook up a lot. Lovely.

Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? (And Other Concerns)

This book made me the crazy giggling person on the subway all day today. IT'S SO GREAT. It's the kind of book where you repeatedly have to say, "Hey, COME HERE AND READ THIS PAGE. Hee hee hee. Hilarious, right? No, you can't have my book; go get your own." Go and read it immediately. You will love it. Then you will want to hang out with Mindy and be her best friend but I will totally fight you for it.
