I absolutely love to read, read, read. Most times anyone can catch me with a book in my hand. My favorite place to hang out is the library or bookstore. They are my home away from home.

Between hubby and I we have over 1,700 books in the house. Of course we each have different likes of books, but sometimes we intertwine and fight over a book. He is a much faster reader than I so he can get through them much faster than me.

I absolutely love true hauntings and I am forever looking for things that go bump in the night. Love to check out haunted places, graveyards, and watching scary movies. ]]> 38 female Champaign, IL 09/2008 12/2009 20248 J.R. Ward 17054 Kim Harrison 7581 Kelley Armstrong 1077326 J.K.

Hi Jamie,

It was worth the wait, but it was still slow on the up keep. I think that J.R. Ward was did a good job and wanted us to keep hanging on. I think that I will enjoy reading more of the series. ]]> The Renegade Hunter (Rogue Hunter, #3; Argeneau Vampires, #12) by Lynsay Sands]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/71081530 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1255618890s/6239025.jpg 1495623 Claudia Lawrence http://photo.goodreads.com/users/1257709409p2/1495623.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/user/show/1495623-claudia-lawrence Mon, 30 Nov 2009 05:43:35 -0800 This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers.
