message 151: by Leea (new) - rated it 5 stars

Leea I need to finish the PsyCops series, I should have jumped in with you Marcella.

My son is finally doing better, he lost his voice and was so hard to understand. Poor guy.

We had a great Thanksgiving. Thanks for asking.

I'm already into the book, so I hope to finish by tomorrow. I'll just jump in and chat with you ladies monday.

For some reason I'm not getting notification for this group... sucks.

Marcella (marcella6) | 886 comments What book did you leave off in the PsyCop series Leea? I can continue the series with you. It would be great to chat with someone about this series. I feel like I got on the bandeagon too late.

So glad that your son's illness didn't put a damper on his holiday.

I had a great Thanksgiving but I almost had a meltdown. I had to get used to my sister's oven. The turkey took a little longer than expected. Everyone was starving. It was about 7:00 pm by the time we ate.

Shanna (shannabanana87) I'm not getting notifications either! I wonder why....


message 154: by Leea (new) - rated it 5 stars

Leea Oh, you passed me. I think I left off at book 3. It's okay, I'm so glad you're enjoying the series.

GR sometimes does this, hopefully the notifications come back on soon. Ugh!

Marcella (marcella6) | 886 comments I can't remember the last time I wrote a review. Sheer laziness on my part.


message 158: by Leea (new) - rated it 5 stars

Leea Hahaha! I understand that, well I can't wait to see your star rating ;)

Heads up, i'm going to be reading Never Seduce a Scot (The Montgomerys and Armstrongs, #1) by Maya Banks with a few member of this Romance group, starting tomorrow if you ladies want to join us. Message me and I can lend you the book.

Shanna (shannabanana87) Hey ladies I've officially started The Sea of Tranquility by Katja Millay , about 10% in, not loving it yet, but I kno I have a long ways to go.


message 162: by Marcella (new) - added it

Marcella (marcella6) | 886 comments I will probably start that one tomorrow. I am trying to make a dent in To Conquer a Highlander (Highlander, #1) by Mary Wine for another group read.

It is funny how I didn't have any group reads lately and now I'm involved in like 3. Yikes! Ha ha!


message 163: by Leea (new) - rated it 5 stars

Leea another series i've wanted to read, Marcella :) You'll have to let me know what you think.

Shanna, It took me till about 20% to really understand what was happening to each character. It's a great book, can't wait to chat with you along the way.

message 167: by Marcella (new) - added it

Marcella (marcella6) | 886 comments I haven't started our Highlander book yet. I can't believe you already finished it. I better get myself in gear.

It's very sad, you get little snippets of what happened to them both along the way.


message 171: by Shanna (new) - rated it 5 stars

Shanna (shannabanana87) Leea, this book is fantastic, I haven't finished yet about 20 pages left but wow! I didn't think I would've enjoyed it this much.


message 172: by Leea (new) - rated it 5 stars

Leea I snuck up on me too. I found myself really connecting with the characters and getting very emotional at times, I even cried closer to the end.


message 173: by Shanna (new) - rated it 5 stars

Shanna (shannabanana87) I just finished, yeah I teared up a couple of times at the end, and also there were some scenes that I couldn't read I just skimmed (view spoiler) those were heart breaking, but I loved the book. I almost feel sorry for the next book I read cause it's going to have measure up this one.


message 174: by Marcella (new) - added it

Marcella (marcella6) | 886 comments Are you ladies done with The Sea of Tranquility by Katja Millay ? Geez I am barely scratching the surface of the book. I don't get it.

Where are discussing the book?

I'm guessing here though its not appropriate, Marcella wat do you think so far?


message 176: by Marcella (new) - added it

Marcella (marcella6) | 886 comments I am liking the book a lot. I just don't understand what happened to Nastya. She was murdered 2 years ago? Huh? I left off on the part after Josh takes her home after having dinner at Drew's house.


message 177: by Shanna (new) - rated it 5 stars

Shanna (shannabanana87) Give it time, I will say that everything gets revealed which is one of the things I loved about this story


message 178: by Marcella (new) - added it

Marcella (marcella6) | 886 comments So far I am liking all the characters. I especially love Drew. He cracks me up.

I think we need to create a thread for this buddy read.


message 179: by Shanna (new) - rated it 5 stars

Shanna (shannabanana87) Yeah Drew is pretty awesome, come to think of it all these characters are pretty awesome. This is undoubtedly a character-driven book.


message 180: by Marcella (new) - added it

Marcella (marcella6) | 886 comments I agree with you. Does the book explain why she dresses like a whore?


message 181: by Shanna (new) - rated it 5 stars

Shanna (shannabanana87) Yup, I'm telling you this author left NOTHING undone, there was even a really nice surprise at the end.


message 182: by Marcella (new) - added it

Marcella (marcella6) | 886 comments Can't wait to finish this book. Sounds good.


message 183: by Leea (new) - rated it 5 stars

Leea Ladies, I need to read another KA book. Not sure which one but I need a KA fix... Anyone up to read one of her books soon?


message 184: by Marcella (new) - added it

Marcella (marcella6) | 886 comments I will be able to do it next week.


message 185: by Shanna (new) - rated it 5 stars

Shanna (shannabanana87) for sure next me for me too, I'm still behind, um, any ones out there that you guys want to do?


message 186: by Leea (new) - rated it 5 stars

Leea Okay, I was thinking of starting this next, Heaven and Hell (Heaven and Hell, #1) by Kristen Ashley but there are more books by KA we haven't read yet. Any you want to read?


message 187: by Marcella (new) - added it

Marcella (marcella6) | 886 comments Sounds good me to.


message 188: by Shanna (new) - rated it 5 stars

Shanna (shannabanana87) That sounds good to me as well lets set a day then? when's good for everyone?

Also Marcella you should lead the discussion on The Sea of Tranquility by Katja Millay so that we dont spoil anything for u, but I want to know what you think about it so far and stuff.


message 189: by Leea (new) - rated it 5 stars

Leea Yeah, also I struggles with the first part of this book too Marcella. So don't give you okay :) You start to understand soon.

What about Monday, Dec. 3rd?

Marcella (marcella6) | 886 comments Where should we discuss the book?


message 191: by Leea (new) - rated it 5 stars

Leea Here :) It's like our buddy read thread hehe!


message 192: by Leea (new) - rated it 5 stars

Leea Okay, what about this KA book? Until the Sun Falls from the Sky (The Three, #1) by Kristen Ashley I haven't read PNR in a long time...

Sorry, i'm obsessed now. hehe!


message 193: by Marcella (new) - added it

Marcella (marcella6) | 886 comments I am trying to make progress with the book. I am just at the part where Drew finds out that she talks. It kind of bums me out that he knows. I loved that is was just something between her and Josh. I love it when Josh said now that Drew knows, it makes her a little less his.

One thing I find interesting about Nastya is that she is so strong willed in some ways by deciding certain things about her life but she isn't that strong willed to get her life back. I am not sure exactly the details of what happened. I am guessing rape and mutilation of some kind. But whatever ever happened to her, she is still playing the victim. That part of her I don't understand. It is like she is two different people. What a dynamic.


message 194: by Shanna (new) - rated it 5 stars

Shanna (shannabanana87) I think Nastya can't imagine her life without her piano because she never did before. So now shes lost and like withthe piano she says she can only focus in one thing and so she is focused on revenge and thats what fuels her will right now.


message 195: by Leea (new) - rated it 5 stars

Leea I loved that moment too, Marcella. Has it picked up for you yet?


Angie Elle (angieelle) | 602 comments These threads really aren't good for the wallet. Now I'm going to have to add The Burg series to my wishlist!

I can understand that but at the same time I think her best revenge is for her to move on with her life. I am not saying to forget what happened to her but for it to not define her.

I feel so bad for her family. They are trying and it is futile.

Most definitely Leea. I was reading last night and the last time I looked at my clock it was 11:30 p.m. Next thing I know I look up again and it is almost 1:00 a.m. Ha ha!


message 199: by Shanna (new) - rated it 5 stars

Shanna (shannabanana87) Yup, and they really go care so much about her, so you think she's selfish as well Marcella? Leea can you remember how you felt about her at this point in the book?

For me I just felt like she was hurting all the time. So she couldn't see passed her own hurt, and so she wanted them to give up on her.

Marcella (marcella6) | 886 comments I just finished the book. HOLY CRAP! I LOVED IT!!!!!!
