For some odd reasons I grabbed the graphic novel first and read that :~ I went back to the library and picked up the actual book.


message 135: by Carina (new)

How ironic. I suppose choosing The Watchmen for me put you in the graphic novel frame of mind. My wife owns the Guilty Pleasures graphic novel and I have skimmed it. I found Anita portrayed as much more voluptuous than I picture her, didn't seem right. And the panels were confusing, but I don't read a lot of graphic novels. I am finding the Watchmen panels much easier to follow.

Luckily for you, Volume One is only the first part of the book, so you still have some surprises ahead!

Missy, I'm doing away with the Forever List. Everyone that wants to participate will need to sign on the monthly challenge list.


message 147: by Christine (new)

Christine I read my pick Reflected in You (Crossfire, #2) by Sylvia Day . I loved Bared to You so I wish that I had waited to read Bared until this one was released because I think too much time had passed between the two books that I had moved on frome Gideon and I hated Eva in this book. I like angst in a book, but the whole, I love him, but wait I just can't be with him, I can't live without him, no I can't be with him. She just annoyed me. I did like the ending though.


message 148: by Gayle (new)

Gayle Carson | 8 comments May I hop in? I have my own historical novel Wynds Over Wylusing at tatepublishing.com that I would like to recommend and get feedback from. It won't be out for pre-release till Dec. 10 at tate, or my website: http://gaylecarson.tateauthor.com till then, but I sure would like to get in on the monthly picks...thanx.
