Josh Lanyon's "I Spy Something Wicked" (ebook), #127

( Synopsis... )

Review: Sequel to "I Spy Something Bloody". I have to admit that it irked me that Mark even considered leaving Stephen and going back to Afghanistan because the Old Man asked him to. I mean, to break a promise because of some perceived "debt"... I don't know, that didn't sit right with me. On the other hand, I could understand his feelings, his insecurity. And it was all just one huge misunderstanding between Mark and Stephen. If they, I don't know, actually talked about their feelings in the first place, they could have spared themselves a lot of heartache.

B.J. James' "The Man with the Midnight Eyes", #128

This used to be my favorite romance when I was a kid. Today, though... I don't know. I think I'm just not cut for simple romances anymore. I just don't get women who don't feel truly fulfilled until they have a husband and a brood of children. Jacinda gave up her career to take care of her sister's child, which I can understand - but as the book progresses, she does everything to accommodate the boy and later on Dare, she just lets Dare take over her life and that's something that my very soul rebels against! I mean, the MacLachlan brothers are lovable but there were moments where I would have told them firmly to back off! Jacinda just went with it. And the romance itself was needlessly complicated by their reluctance to, I don't know, date? It just felt way convoluted and sugary at the same time. I do love the MacLachlans and their backstory though.

Pepper Espinoza's "The Obsolete Man" (ebook), #129

( Synopsis... )

Review: A short, but deeply moving story about a man who decides to commit suicide - but first, he wants to talk to the gorgeous guy who rides on the same train with him every morning. A good portion of this ebook consists of sex, slightly kinky one to that, but it's not a PWP. John, the obsolete man, is such a likable character that some parts of his story, his loneliness, his despair, moved me to tears, literally. On the other hand, the description of the happiness that he finds with Chad, the gorgeous guy on the train, is so incredibly heartwarming! I'm smitten!

Numb3rs 605-607

( Spoilers for the aforementioned episodes! )

What Ausiello posted about this season/possible series finale of N3:

“We will be doing a 16th episode that wraps up storylines and answers questions,” reveals the show’s co-creator Cheryl Heuton. “It will be designed to stand as a finale, but it won’t create story situations that would hamper us if the network should decide to order more episodes.”

Heuton says she’s confident the episode “will give fans what they’ve been waiting for… We’re looking to feature all our characters and give good moments to every member of the cast.”

What I would like to see?
- Charlie and Amita's wedding
- Don leaving the FBI and moving forward in his relationship with Robin
- David taking over Don's job
- and from the realm of the impossible: David and Colby becoming a couple - hey, I can dream ;)

In this case, I really wouldn't mind if the show ended this season. The plots are becoming rather... convoluted and the writers focus too much on the personal stuff instead of on the action.
