One more book finished

About an hour ago I abandoned Dream Guy by Candy Halliday. I'll probably go back to it later, but I had to stop. It wasn't appearling to me much.

After stopping Dream Guy, I started reading Behind Closed Doors. I have no idea how to spell the author, so I won't even try. It's not a Harlequin but a Loveswept novel. I remember in my younger days I used to really enjoy Loveswept. However, I eventually made the switch to Harlequins. I still like to go back and forth though. Keeps things from getting staid.

Anyway, so I finished Behind Closed Doors. It's more or less a book about a woman who's (tada!) in love with her sister's husband. The sister passes on because of some illness, but not before the heroine is roped into being a surrogate mother. The baby is apparently the heroine and hero's.

I keep using the word predictable when writing about the books I've read, but it's the only word that comes to mind. I have to admit I saw what was coming before it happened. Sometimes doing that is a b*tch, but at least I'm not surprised at the end.

But going back to predictable... I don't think that has a whole lot to do with the authors and their writing style, but my choice of books. Perhaps I just gravitate to books with predictable plots. Despite that, they're always enjoyable. This title was no different. It was a very pleasant and entertaining read. No struggling like with Dream Guy.

I'm not sure what I'm going to choose next, but I'll just dive in like I've been doing. I don't feel like going back to Dream Guy, so I'll check out my other options. Maybe now is the time to get some of my school readings out of the way?
