Hello team Zéng!!!

Just visiting from Dez to say Hi and happy towers day!

Awwwww puppies!!! They are so cute!!!

*A big wave hi from Dez*

So, less than an hour away, are you ready to go?

Ahahahahahh. Would you be reading though?

19 hours to go. Everyone ready?

Our fierce leader is not going to be as present as she would like, but, she has her books with her, and hopefully she will be back to us in no time.

I'm on my phone, so no inspiration of the day... I'll try to do that before clock ticks go.

Instead, a question. Which book is going to be your first?

I'm still not sure... It's either be something by AJ Sherwood or Jocelyn Drake. Probably the first. Either her newest release or a reread in preparation for wicky's book

*rolls eyes*

I had worse than that. I just didn't advertised as much.

*goes check KD #6*

Yeah, I think that one might be the darkest of the series. I think I only read it the once.

You're not the only one hoping for Arabella's story. Specially after the Friday Talks goodie. From some reason, she always reminds me of Antimony from the InCryptid series. Which I need to get back. Who knows, maybe towers is the perfect excuse for me to put that nonsense of not liking other dimensions aside and finally read . I'm dying to read Alice's book, but I can't because I still need to read the stupid they were sent back to another dimension/planet and lost their memories aversion.

I finally read Iron and Magic and ...SWOON..."

Oh Iron and Magic... I was so determined to continue on hating Hugh... I can't forgive them to make me like the guy. I had to read it twice in a row to let it sink in.

I still have mixed feelings about Blood Heir... I need the second one in order to understand the why of some things.

Now Inkeeper. Inkeeper was something that I read, because it was IA, but, I had to convince myself because there are a few things that I don't enjoy reading: time travel, aliens, alternative realities and other dimensions, etc.... Inkeeper had a few of them... BUT it was good enough that I continue on reading and the last installment is so so good... oh so good. Now I'm waiting on Maude's #2, that I think it will be the next one.

We shall see. They are now on a we will tell you about our projects when we are done writing them. Meh.

Last year I also started The Others series by Anne Bishop and enjoy it very much."

Oh OH OH Kate Daniels is my favorite series. Did you read . The next one, is going to be out soon, and it's slightly bigger than what they first expect. I am so happy I could burst!!!

And yes, despite what everybody thinks, Ty & Zane are not my favorite... they were my obsession for some time...nothing embarrassing nor long nor that obsessive, really.

Sure, I love my MM romances. But my favorite still is and will continue to be UF. Brownie points if it has both :o)

Anyway, back in my teens I read whatever I could get my hands on, not particularly picky, so I read a bit of everything. After that I went into a fantasy kick... both UF and Epic, first with The Hobbit and Harry Potter, later with Juliet Marillier - loved her retelling twists.. and then, one day, a friend of mine told me about this tv show based on a book series called true blood. He also gave me a box set of the first 7 for my birthday. He was also the one to introduce me to Katie MacCalister, Vampire Academy, and more important, to Goodreads.

Dezzies is cute! It doesn't translate as any word we have, so, feel free to use it :D

And btw, we love visits at Dez, so, anyone can stop by.

Karen is 10 hours ahead of me I think... Not friday there anymore.. but still too early to be considered saturday, lol. They just 5 minutes past midnight.

I forget that Steven only comes to play for towers...

Shame that as a mod you never took full advantage of the po..."
Well... I didn't count that challenge because I had to quit being a player on the first game. BUT, the things I had to deal with on the background.... it makes someone to get religious... or lose faith... or both

Now that I think about it, the only one I had no interaction whatsoever was cutthroat...

Anyway, I did used i once, with team Lust. I promised the other mods I wouldn't do it again. I had to step down to keep that promise though... once we get a taste... LOL

(just kidding)

Gladiators, Battleship, 7 edition of wheels and 10 of towers.... that's 19 team challenges...

Considering that I wanted a whole team the one time, and Sammy since then, Steven only does towers... and Claire ended up being on my team more often than not for sheer luck... I'm not that greedy

*pouts*

I have had a nice mix up all over the years... And more than my fair share of newbies and some troublemakers...

So much sass.. and since her mother is still her hero... all the sarcasm and bad habits... LOL

Which is kind of cute & scary at the same time
