No real plans here, Melissa, I was just wanting to chat with my great group. My niece's 16th birthday will be in a few weekends though. I will go visit her and give her cash. :) I'm all 16 year olds love cash! lol

Welcome Marta! So, great to have you in our group!

My weekend is going ok for me. How's your weekend going?

Anyone have special plans?

It seems to be 2 types of vampires in Mission Improper. Cool! Has anyone else found this to be true?

I loved the "old" IT but I will probably rent the new one and compare.

Welcome Samantha! Thank you for being a part of the group!

good idea! :)

I am thinking of trying that movie "Mother". Anyone else interested in this movie?

If you don't like Steampunk then Bec McMaster is kind of hard to get into. I did read [bookcover:Kiss of Steel|1..."

I say so far "the jury is still out" on this one. I like books that grab me in the beginning and keep me interested but some books have surprised me and grab me 5 or so chapters in and that is just as good. I do like the vampire part of the book and that has kept me wanting to find out what else this book will have in the pages. The banter between characters reminds me of one of my favorite series, Kate Daniels series. :) So I am getting into this book I believe!

I am a little further into this one for me, it is taking me some time to get used to the book. I haven't made an opinion on it yet. I do know for me it has not grabbed me yet.

This story sounds like what I do, as well. :) I know what you mean.

I have has a yahoo email well since I cancelled AOL. But I have recently learned that it has been losing things. If you need to get me I have updated my profile here on Goodreads to my new email address. Please use the new one! thanks

Hi Angel, How is your day going?

Welcome new members! Great to have you all! We have a great group here and I am sure they are glad to see more new book lovers!

Sylvia wrote: "I'm about 30 pages into The Far Shore. It's not a book I would have picked up on my own, so it's fun to stretch my reader wings!"

Cool, I will try that one next! :)

I am not far into this book yet but I started Mission: Improper and so far it is interesting. This is not really my type of book (steam punk), but I try anything so I am excited for an adventure.
Has anyone else joined me?

Happy Labor Day weekend everyone! Have a safe holiday!

I feed the birds so I can see what all we have living near by or what comes to visit. I can see your love of birds.

Yeah, that is funny. I worked for almost 5 years at Sarah Bush in Mattoon.

thank you, I thought about this movie myself!
