message 51: by Dawn (Kat N Hat) (new)

Dawn (Kat N Hat) (katnhat) I didn't plan at all last round and it managed to work out. The items are harder this round but last round for things like light & fire I just read whatever was next in my pile and hoped I found it. As the game gets further along you need to plan a bit more. Don't stress about it in the begining.

The one thing I would advise is that if there is an item you don't think you'll find easily in genres you read try claim it as soon as you can. You don't want to be stuck with those hard items at the end.

Rating 4 out of 5 ♥'s
Read: Pretty Little Devils by Nancy Holder

Found:....bed (pg 45) thick glasses sitting on the edge of a twin bed.

also can claim
Found:....Green (pg 15) Megan was all girlie-girl in a tan corduroy blazer and light green
Found:....Single Female (Cover)
Found:....Famous Landmark (Statue of Liberty) (pg.19) held an egg roll above her head like the Statue of Liberty holding her torch.

Review:
I could not put this book down! It had me guessing until the end who the culprit was because it literally could have been anybody! My initial guess at who it was was NOT who it was and that is all I am saying on that before I spill the beans but it basically has your usual clique of popular girls that everybody wants to be or in this story wants a piece of.

Sylvia was an awesome character...played her part to the hilt as the original queen B who tried to rule all her queens courts lives better known as the PLD's. She is just one of those characters that you love to hate and as much as I despised her I loved Hazel. She was sweet to an extent but she was determined not to succomb to Sylvia's rules like the others had no matter what and then things begin to get nasty as animals and students begin to pile up dead and it appears somebody has it out for the PLD Squad but WHO?

As good as it was there were still some moments that just didn't click for me or seem to fit like for instance there was this one dead animal whose owner/character just didn't have anything to do with the story. It just never got tied or gave motive to the killer for it's death but overall a wonderfully suspensful read!


message 78: by Adele (new)

Adele Symonds (adelesymonds) I read Marked but made a mistake, bed was in the book but it was in the excerpt from the next book in the series so I will now be reading Blood Lust Rising (The Vampire Queen Trilogy, #1) by Fayth Devlin instead.

This has got bed


message 79: by Jenne (new)

Jenne  (jennetheinstigator) Adele no rush yet. So don't worry about it.
Jennifer good job!

╰⊱♥⊱╮ღ꧁Kathy,Ahmazing Book Faerie꧂ღ╭⊱♥≺ (mamabear7080) Rock Chick Redemption (Rock Chick, #3) by Kristen Ashley
BED WEEKRock Chick Redemption Finished 3-9-12 Rating a good 4out of 5✹
Another great read from Kristen Ashley. This is #3 in the Rock Chick Series.
This is Hank Nightingales story, and his attraction to new girl on the block, and niece of Tex, Roxie Logan.
Tex and his sister have been estranged for years, and Roxie plans on visiting uncle Tex, so she can A: get away from her abusive boyfriend, and B: hopefully get the siblings back together again.
Her plans go slightly awry when she arrives at Indys bookshop and meets Hank! The attraction is immediate, as we know is standard with Ms Ashley's characters, and so the adventure begins. Not the full on Excitement of some of her books, but a great story nonetheless. looking forward to carrying on the series.
Things: BED. (standard fitting in KA books!)There was a huge BED, made out of what looked like logs Page 63 of 323epub version.
Places: BAR/PUB. Bars were hopping,restaurants were jammed,... Page 57 of 323 epub version.
People:Celebrity...."who could quote Springsteen lyrics...."Page 95 of 323 epub version.
Colours: Purple. The cover.

Adele Symonds (adelesymonds) Blood Lust Rising (The Vampire Queen Trilogy, #1) by Fayth Devlin

Bed Week
Blood Lust Rising by Fayth Devlin finished 3 sep 2012 star rating 4/5

This is the first in a trilogy which I was sent to review for The Romance Review website. It is a very good vampire, demon, shapeshifter, fantasy, paranormal romance. The romance and sex scenes are a bit full on so definitely 18+ but the character's are well formed and the story flows well. My only gripe is that it needed a little more editing before being published.

BED: 'I was on a bed. Not my bed.' 9%

PEOPLE - COUPLE: 'Couples? Were we a couple now?' 49%

PLACES - FOREST: 'The moon slid out from behind hazy, dark clouds and bathed the forest in a pale light.' 69%

COLOURS - BLUE: 'His eyes were a beautiful fusion of blue and green. Micah would tell you they were blue.' 2%

Jenne  (jennetheinstigator) Good job Kathy and Adele!

Jenne  (jennetheinstigator) Bed Week:

I read Hyde, an Urban Fantasy by Lauren Stewart
Finished: 9/3/12 ♥♥♥♥♥

Here's my review:
This was a unique book. Eden has always been a good girl when she wakes up in a strangers bed naked with no memory of getting there she thinks she's losing her mind. Mitch takes pride in being arrogant and rude. Eden gets under his skin though and he's not sure how to treat her. Mitch has a beast he becomes once a month named Hyde. Hyde is a bad man and capable of murder. Eden keeps ending up with Mitch without knowing how she's getting there. Turns out Eden is more like Mitch than she ever thought possible. Both of them are being played by many outside people. Can the work their own issues out with one another and not fall victim to being someone else's pawn.
I thought this was a unique, captivating, and dark story. I can't wait for the next one to see what happens to these two. This book had a 50 shades feel to it in a paranormal way IMO.

Locations: Bar their attention as if they were at a bar Location# 9%
People: Children her particular sleep disorder usually occurred in younger children Location# 4%
Things: Bed She lunged out of the bed Location# 1%
Colors: White His knuckles were white Location# 21%

message 98: by Dawn (Kat N Hat) (new)

Dawn (Kat N Hat) (katnhat) Yes, I would count mention of George Orwell as a celebrity... to most of the world except my husband. How funny that we had a conversation this past weekend trying to explain who George Orwell was to him. Everyone else instantly knew who he was.
