Sorry, I was in heaven library. Got lost in the books. But the spoilers are working for me. In chrome.

P.S: That image is cute. Where do you find them?

35559 My library has loooads of Catherine Anderson. And most of them aren't borrowed. *Happy Dance*
35559 Oh, I finished this. We should start a series read of Hercule Poirot. *hint hint*

35559 I read Heartbreak Creek (Runaway Brides #1) by Kaki Warner after your rec. I think you did a BR somewhere? I liked Catherine Anderson's Annie's Song by Catherine Anderson again after you. Come to think of it, I do stalk you a lot. I'm sane, really.

So, I'm going to try and source the other Catherine Anderson book. I've heard things about Comanche Moon (Comanche, #1) by Catherine Anderson but I'm not sure if they were good or bad. But I'm going to try it anyway.(btw: this cover makes it look like a 80s bodice ripper Comanche Moon (Comanche, #1) by Catherine Anderson )

And thanks loads. This should hold me off for a month.

35559 Oh I meant you didn't recommend it to me. I sort of stalked your bookshelf on Sunday when I was looking for inspiration. But now that you've noticed, I need a rec - romance (maybe western) please?

35559 I finished up Courting Miss Hattie by Pamela Morsi yesterday. It was a really, really good and I loved it. Once again, LK didn't fail me (even though she wasn't aware).

Also finished up Principal of Love by Patricia McLinn . It was a rec from Dear Author and a real good one. A little dated contemporary but the h was so different - A socially awkward person who had to take classes on how to deal with other people. The romance was really good. Josh pushed at Vanessa again and again and their journey together was wonderful.

And I've started Deadline (Newsflesh Trilogy, #2) by Mira Grant yesterday.

35559 Catherine, for the Alphabet Title (which is what we are doing for #2), the books you read in September towards that challenge can be used for our September Challenge.

Basically, any books you finish in September for any of the three challenges that we are doing will count for that challenge and our September challenge. Do I make sense?

I haven't come to that part yet but if I remember right, Durmstrang come via a Ship & Beauxbaton (pardon my spellings) come via a flying carriage with some type of horses. But it's more like a flashy entrance and not really a explanation.

35559 Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (Harry Potter, #4) by J.K. Rowling HP

I started GoF on Saturday. Sorry, I really couldn't wait till Monday. I'm at the part where they've reached Hogwarts. Jim Dale is still awesome.

And after reading Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (Harry Potter, #3) by J.K. Rowling , the major question I had was what is the major distance that you can apparate? If it's international, just imagine - no aeroplane hassle! No passports! No transportation costs!

If not, how did the Weasleys get to Egypt for vacation? Floo Network? Is it international too?

35559 Since it's been ages I did an update.. I just finished up The Vor Game (Vorkosigan Saga, #6) by Lois McMaster Bujold - awesome installation as always. ShoSho should be glad I finished. She was waiting for me to!

I started Courting Miss Hattie by Pamela Morsi today. I'm ridiculously excited to start this book. LK has given it 5 stars and that usually means a great read for me too.

Also doing Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (Harry Potter, #4) by J.K. Rowling on audio - Jim Dale is an amazing narrator. And Midnight Tides (Malazan Book of the Fallen, #5) by Steven Erikson which I haven't read in a week.

35559 I can't wait for September to start!! I feel like I'm limbo with my reading.

Judy & Chris - Susanna Kearsley is one of my favorite authors. Her prose is so lyrical and I don't notice time when I'm reading her book. I would recommend her The Rose Garden by Susanna Kearsley or Mariana by Susanna Kearsley . Both are really good.

35559 Judy: It's like two love stories in one and yes, it does have HEA. Both do.

My reading has slowed down too in the last two weeks. RL has been sooo crazy.
