I changed my book choice.

Week 9 - Mountain/Cliff

by Sylvain Reynard
Rating: ★★★ 1/2
Finished: 10/29/12

Mountains/Cliff: "Sometimes I feel like he's standing on the edge of a very high cliff, and the slightest movement, the slightest breath of wind, will push him over the edge." Page 131
Things: Smoke - A glimpse of the impossible drifted before his eyes, but like a wisp of smoke it vanished. Page 200
Color: Yellow - The trees of the city had changed color and were now dappled in gold and yellow and brilliant orange and red. Page 279

Review:
This book was decent, although it wasn't nearly up to the same caliber as On Dublin Street and the Crossfire series. I'll read Gabriel's Rapture, because it sounds like it will deal with the aftermath of Gabriel having a relationship with a student, which is exactly what I was expecting to happen in the 500+ pages of this book. Inferno was a little long and probably could have been shaved down a little to keep me from zoning out at times. The will they won't they between Gabriel and Julia didn't flow as well as I've seen it in other books, but there was definitely an intensity there.

[Katherine]

Way to go, Paris!!

Cliff



***** 31.10

This time it was Emma's turn to find a love and she did with Jack. It was so romantic, sweet and emotional story. I loved every moment of it!!


Items:

Cliff - p.310 - I know him and still i jumped off the cliff.
Smoke - p.22 - ...and saw her early night go up in smoke.

[Katherine]

Way to go, Laura!

[Toni ~married to a hunk~]

Week 9 Mountain/Cliff

Finally I am done with all of my items. This week I read the book Ties That Bind it was a great part to this trilogy. I love how it is not all about the same characters in the book but many more and you get a full picture. I loved learning more about Telal and what he really did give up to come topside as I call it. I think that it was very interesting to learn that Lily was not herself the whole book.

Items:
cliff Location 1981 Telal hopped down from the small cliff
Bag Location 923 Picking up a brown paper bag
Healer Rosa the el Blanco
Yellow Location 368 She slammed into the yellow car.

Five stars I finished it October 30th.

[Paris]

Wooo Congrats Toni!!

Okay so Toni and Dyllan are both done. I still have 2 items left....bag and white. So here's to hoping that either one of those is called, or the item called is not a thing or color.

[Lala]

i only need one more item metropolitan area

[Katherine]

Way to go, Toni!!

[Sheila]

OK gang the item called is bag. Thank goodness it wasn't yet another PLACE!

I'll be able to fill in bar/pub this week but that will still leave me with road for my last item next week (if there is a next week).


Dirty Work by Stuart Woods

My hubby is leaving for a boys out weekend in about an hour so that will just leave me and my books and my dog until Sunday night. Can you tell how sad I am about this???

Anyway I apologize for probably being the last to finish. Those darn places got me.

[Lala]

Can i use Chicago for metropolitan area?

[Dawn (Kat N Hat)]

Don't worry about it Sheila. We're still a kick butt team!

[Sheila]

I'll be so lonely NEXT week when I am the only one left to fill in the blank. :(

[Paris]

I'll read a book with you even though I don't have anything to fill in.

[Sheila]

Thanks Paris, sniff.

[Paris]

At least it looks like we still have a chance to win. I don't think anyone can win this week.

[Toni ~married to a hunk~]

I will read something with you Sheila too.

[Katherine]

Ditto, I'll read with you too Sheila. We're a team, you're not alone ;)

[Sheila]

Thanks everyone. Let's just hope they don't call a place next week. We could still win this. I've got a nice short book all lined up.

[Sheila]

Week 10
Bag

by S.H. Kolee
Rating: ★★★★ 1/2
Finished: 11/2/12

Bag: The cabbie dropped my bags on the sidewalk after I had paid him and took off. Location 136
Color: white I had paired it with a crisp white oxford shirt and a wide grey belt that I hoped accentuated my narrow waist. Location 511

Review:
Oh I so loved this book. I didn’t want to put it down. It’s funny, even though I knew that there would be a happily ever after (it’s a romance after all), I was still afraid for Jackson and Emma. My heart broke for them when bad things happened and I wanted to yell at them both for being so stupid. Jackson quickly became one of my favorite male characters even though at times I felt he was a tad whiney/needy. There was still something sexy and sweet about him that made me want a Jackson of my very own. I also really liked Emma, despite her being a bonehead at times. I thought she was a far stronger female lead than many that I’ve seen. I like the way that their story ended, but I wouldn’t mind a sweet little novella to tell me what they’re up to now. This is definitely one that I’ll likely re-read in the future.

[Katherine]

Way to go Sheila and Paris!!

[Paris]

Hey Toni, looks like Dawn missed counting bag for you. You might want to mention it in the discussion thread so she can fix that.

Then for next week lets all hope that a thing gets called (but not blood) so that Sheila can read a book real fast for road and we can win!

[Sheila]

I've got my reading shoes on Paris = VROOM, VROOOOM!!!

[Toni ~married to a hunk~]

Dawn post 258 I had claimed bag FYI!!

Gypped by Carol Higgins Clark large print edition

Read 11/9


Regan Reilly P.I. is just along for the ride this time when her husband Jack has to attend a conference in LA. She is looking at it as a little mini vacation for her and Jack. While he is at the conference she plans to shop. While out shopping she runs into an old friend/acquaintance who invites her to a dinner at a formerly beautiful mansion. Things aren't quite what they seem and Regan finds herself on the job to figure out what is really going on.

I give it ★★★'s. only because the book gets kind of hokey in parts of it.


Red - the bright red living room page 40

Road - In a small house set back from a rural road page 27
