Yay all... Is it stamp time?

Sorry, I'm a little late updating. Little busy with RL. :(

Shelf 10: Goodreads Author (Called on 7/8 Apr): 5/5

Jennifer - Zen and the Art of Vampires by Katie MacAlister - 12 Apr - ★★★★ - Review
Lis - Blood Rights by Kristen Painter - 11 Apr - ★★★ - Review
Dawn - Twice Bitten: A Chicagoland Vampires Novel by Chloe Neill - 8 Apr - ★★★★ - Review
Vi - Hostage to Pleasure by Nalini Singh - 9 Apr - ★★★★ - Review

Soooo we need 2011 or Fantasy for the read-off and win?

That's what WE need... but I predict that this week will be vampires or SciFi, with faveSupe or alpha as equal chance trailing third.

I'm hoping for 2011 so I can read Fifty Shades Darker, I'm hooked and want to continue the series.

And it's Favorite Supernatural which is a personal shelf...

My favorite supernatural is by far vampires... so I'll be reading .

Darn it! Just realized that I'll will be out-of-station the following weekend. This week's shelf is not really that important for us so we can take this week slow. I'll check in for the shelf next week but I'll be traveling which means not much internet time. I'll be having my e-reader with me and a book that works for both 2011 and Fantasy (I hope they get called next :P)

Tough one, but probably vamps for me too so I'll go with

Vamps for me too, although shifters are a close 2nd! I will be reading

It's Jacob vs Edward all over again...

Or we can always ponder Angels....

some more...

That never gets old Lis ...... LOL

Vamps for me too, so I'm going to be reading Wanted:Undead or Alive by Kerrelyn Sparks. How do I put the picture of the book up there/

Jennifer above the comment box it says add book/author, click on that and type in the name of the book then click on cover.

Lis, I missed that cover ;)

:) That makes sense, haha I totally didn't notice that.

It's so easy Jennifer, that it only takes once and then you'll be putting covers and links everywhere. ROFL

Review: In book 10, the Vamps finally defeated Casmir. So what's the next great threat to all vampire kind? Exposure via the internet and now it falls to Gegori, PR wonder / "safe bottle vamp", to get the video exposed as a hoax. But there's the little problem of his attraction to the President's daughter Abagail...

While this installment wasn't quite as funny as some of the others, I still loved it. You really got to see deep into Gregori's personality and it wasn't what the world is led to believe. I thought it was adorable how insecure he really was and just wanted to hug him. He thinks no one takes him seriously and so fails at first to see just how big of a job he has been entrusted with.

Abagail I wasn't as much in love with. There was something about her that irritated me. I think it was that she was always complaining about needing to be protected, especially when they was in China. I wanted to scream at her that of course she wouldn't be allowed to wander off by herself... it's the wilds of China, anything could happen to her. She failed to see that she would have needed to be guarded even if she were a paupers daughter, for the sheer reason that she doesn't have the skills to navigate the jungle or protect herself if someone where to attack her. Add that to the fact that yes, she IS the President's daughter and her simply BEING there was a major international incident waiting to happen... and yeah, she annoyed me a bit. Still, I give it a solid four stars.

Yay team... Another stamp and a multi way tie for the 2011 shelf...

And fast reading Heather. Good job!

I'm stuck on the Fifty series so I've got to know what happens before I can vamp out...

Hey Midu! Yep, things going pretty good (though I think I'm way past any help :P) How are things your side?

Lis, it's ok. This shelf is not important to us at all. We're all caught up on the important shelves (well, on all shelves except this week's). I think we can take this shelf reaal slow. There's a 85% chance of a Bingo shelf called next week.

Great job, Heather!! Fast reading :)

its all good,babe! lemme know if I can do anything :-)

Sure! Thanks, Midu!! So sweet of you :)

Good book.There were a few slow parts but I loved Lucan in all of his surliness. A few parts of the story were a little predictable but overall it was well written with a great cast of characters. I can't wait to read about the other warriors that fight along with Lucan.

Good Job, Dawn!!

I'm going for my weekend trip today. I'll have limited access to the internet but I'll start one of these three this Sunday in case I can't get to the shelf called this Sunday:

They'll fit both 2011 and Fantasy shelves (hopefully one of them will be called this week) Thank God for E-Readers.

Review: In this installment, Phineas Mckinney, a.k.a. the love doctor, falls in love with a werewolf who hates Vampires, Brynley. So pretty much the whole book they are fighting whether they can make the relationship work or not. Meanwhile, Brynley's dad is trying to get her to marry a werewolf, so cue drama! Haha. All in all it was a pretty good book.

It's us... It's us... 3 way tie read off... 2011

Gotta read it... Found on page 39 of the 2011 shelf.

Good luck, ladies! I'm rooting for you as my homie Vi is on this team. :)

Yeah Lis you get to read your book!

Going to read

Going to read catching fire. I'm starting right now.

Good one Jennifer... Good luck on the fast reading Dawn and Jennifer. Raziel is moving pretty good, so far. Feelin' the pressure!

Yay us!! Thanks, DG!!!


I started reading hexed for this shelf. About 40 pages in. I'll do the shelf update in the next post.

I hope Heather has checked the shelf too!

I'm reading .

I was gone away from my computer the last few days but had put books on my Nook... It was just my luck to drop it and have the screen break on me so that I was hurrying back home. Looks like I'll be reading from my laptop @.@

Good Luck Guys!!!! :D

Rating: ★★★

Charlie is an amazingly brave woman. She suffers a lot in this book and for the most part she handles all the new stuff pretty well. Malcolm is the typical alpha and does what he wants including marking Charlie and turning her without explaining anything. I didn't love this story and times it was slow and I just wanted the author to get to the point.

Halfway done with mine! Way to go, Dawn!

Yay Dawn!

Finished- Catching Fire, Suzanne Collins

Review- It was great!! In this second installment of The Hunger Games, Peeta and Katniss are forced to go through another Reaping. A lots of the districts are trying to overthrow their government, and President Snow blames Katniss. Life in DistrictTwelve is getting more strict, and a lots of people are unhappy with the capital. Im glad I have the last one so I can start right away.

Yay Jennifer.. I'm close to finishing too and will post review as soon as I can.

Yay dawn! just a thing though.. Could you double check that the book is more than 200 pages?

I'm done with my book. I'll post the reviews and such later.

go Vi! :-)
