Search - Blow Me Down

This book was lots of fun. It was smart, good dialogue, fantastic premise, and overall fabulous. You'll see I like a lot of her books, but I don't think I've ever read anything else like this by her. This wasn't "paranormal" per se, just a really good romance. Amy's a workaholic single mom to a teenage daughter who introduces to a concept...play time. It's when Amy STOPS working and focuses on NON work things. Specifically, the game her daughter wants to play that Amy will no longer pay for...a multi player online RPG. The game designers have sent the daughter the beta test for the virtual reality version and Amy promises to give it a try. Fairly tame and believable plotline. The fun begins when Amy gets trapped in the game and meets up with the game designer and his best friend. From then on, it's a battle of wits to find a way out of the game and into each other's real lives.

I absolutely LOVED this book.

When I started reading this I was like: Yes! A romance involving talk about RPGs and MMORPGs! And then it also included pirates and swordplay. Yay!

This book is modernly original and a fun read for anyone who likes the above. The blurb on the cover didn't do it justice because it really didn't let you know that the lead character was going to be stuck in a video game. It was just such a fun read that I couldn't put it down and I think was even "gamey" enough to get my husband to read, what is, a wonderful comedy-romance story.

There's just a lot of humor in this one. I think the only annoying thing I found was the lead character's daughter, who was a bit too obnoxious for a 16-year-old (at the end of the story). Otherwise, you will get a lot of laughs out of this one.

I honestly did not think I would like this book after the first couple of chapters but I stuck it out and am so glad I did! It was hilarious! Katie MacAlister comes through once again with a book I would be happy to re-read!

What a surprise! From the beginning to the end I was entranced! Not often do I come across a book that totally engrosses me in the story line so much!
I hate to review in detail- but - an overworked mom gets talked into a role playing virtual reality game by her teenage daughter. For whatever reason (a program bug, the lightning,?) she gets sucked into the game, and finds more adventure than she counted on.
Adventure, love, a lil sex, intrigue...then back to real life. LOVE IT!

Great book! Easy escape!

I love most of her other stuff but I really couldn't get into this one. I couldn't get through the first chapter. For some reason, I couldn't get into the premise or the characters. But definitely read her other stuff. They are great.
