HAHAHAHAHA! Maybe they are thinking animals on the title. :)

8565 Finished The King's Guard (Fire and Thorns, #0.7) by Rae Carson and gave it 3.5 stars. It was a really interesting prequel in the 'Girl of Fire and Thorns' trilogy and totally worth the money because it disclosed a secret that wasn't even hinted in the series! It was also really cute to see Hector as a young teenager.

8565 I'm mid-way through Hold Me Closer, Necromancer (Necromancer, #1) by Lish McBride and I've been enjoying it a A LOT!
8565 I'll be reading Abhorsen (The Abhorsen Trilogy, #3) by Garth Nix or The Grimoire of the Lamb (The Iron Druid Chronicles, #0.4) by Kevin Hearne

8565 It took me a while but I found a book from my TBR! (on page 28, LOL!)

And I already found Harry Potter and The Hunger Games in there!
8565 Very cute shelf!

I'll check mine to see what I have...

8565 All of those are 5-stars for me but then I'm a HUGE Christie fan. Most of her books are at least 4 stars for one way or another. I've been doing a re-read of both of her main series in the last few years.

Sorry that I've been a bit lost. Looking for a job has been taking all my time lately and I've barely been reading!

What happens if you don't have use for the bonus words or numbers? Meaning, the title of my book is Magic Bites so none of the bonus words or numbers would apply...what happens if I get one? Is that something I could trade with the Broker for a letter I need?

8565 Question about the rolling of the dice...if you're book has 10 letters in the title, I guess you have to roll 10 times?

8565 Probably the pub date was wrong and somebody corrected it. Wikipedia has it published in 1988 so probably that's the right date.
8565 Here are some of my choices...all from my TBR:

The Turn of the Screw by Henry James The King's Guard (Fire and Thorns, #0.7) by Rae Carson The Grimoire of the Lamb (The Iron Druid Chronicles, #0.4) by Kevin Hearne Wool Omnibus (Silo, #1) (Wool, #1-5) by Hugh Howey Snow-Kissed by Laura Florand The Story Guy by Mary Ann Rivers
8565 Susan - A lot of those are available for free at the author's site so I'd check there. I know that's the case with all the Curran POV books.

8565 Finished Texas Destiny and it was awesome! (Yup, I'm kicking butt, LOL!)

8565 Finished Texas Destiny (Texas Trilogy, #1) by Lorraine Heath and it was awesome! OMG that scene with the horses was one of the most romantic I've ever read (and different too!!)

I'll start Hold Me Closer, Necromancer (Necromancer, #1) by Lish McBride once I get my hands on the audio. :)

8565 Interesting choice! Something short and sweet. ;)

Here's the link: Novellas

I have a lot of good choices for this. :)

8565 Oh and by the way...I'm loving Texas Destiny.

8565 I understand why her books were groundbreaking. Before her, everybody pretty much portrayed vampires as opera loving, elegant men so the change to hip-hop thug-a-likes was new. But by now, the bloom is off that rose and she's gotten crazy with some of the language, using similes that are very strange and inappropriate.

Oh and the brand name dropping! (It gets worse in the following books.) That's so freaking tiresome. Like chick-lit meets PNR.
