I have finished my book.I read
CALLED:
EMERGENCY VEHICLE; PAGE 72. From inside the sheriff's Blazer, Rob looked out at everyone standing in front of the Buckhorn, his gaze taking in the two deputies as they checked for sobriety before letting
anyone go.
CLAIMED:
BELT Page 63. She had long red nails and hooked a finger through Rob's belt loop.
ELBOW: PAGE 119. "We should start over." His palm slid to her elbow then dropped to his side.
LIGHTNING: PAGE 166. "And lightning didn't strike?"
3 1/2
Review: The third in the Chinooks Series by Rachael Gibson. I read this series when I feel like something lighter to read, as they are a great romance, but not heavy on the sex. This time its Retired Chinooks goalie Rob Sutter's turn for a go at true love. Rob is approached in a bar by Katie Hamilton, who offers herself up to him. He refuses her advances and the two go their separate ways. A few weeks later in his home town he is introduced to Katie again, by her grandfather, neither let on they have met before, until they catch up alone later. As this is a romance story, of course the inevitable romance ensues, and we eventually get our HEA, after going through all the yes I want him/her, no I dont want him/her.
Good easy read, although I didnt feel it had the same depth of feeling that the previous books had.
I will be back with my review in 12 hours
nearly time ShoSho!! LOl.
i still got 20 minutes left, on my way to work:D
Week 8Item: Emergency vehicle
by Karina BlissRead:21/01/2013
Rating:★★★★
Review:
I had this on my to-read list for a long time and I knew I'll love it but for some reasons hadn't read it before. The twin sister and the big brother of a married couple are stuck with their sibling's children and in the middle of their marital problems. A sweet funny quick read.
Items:
Emergency vehicle:“Call an ambulance.” page 18
Snow:“So many you must be snow-blind.” page 64
Elbow:Ross dropped his hand from her elbow. page 68
Bra:Her push-up bra
cleavage was all but hidden under a tangle of thrift-shop beads and phony diamond strands.page 12
Ezi , Chaitra what are you reading for this week?
I am sorry, I thought I put that I was reading
SEE POST 297 on the prior page
no problem.by the way Eddie Cibrian was on that 3rd Watch show about firefighters. i loved that show, but it was cancelled after 3 seasons. that seems to be a theme with my shows. i wish they would cancel greys anatomy because it has become ridiculous
Oh I wish a lot of shows would get cancelled !Greys and lots more
ShoSho wrote: "Oh I wish a lot of shows would get cancelled !Greys and lots more"the real housewives?
No I haven't seen that , but I was so happy when the desperate housewife was cancelled and then there are all those NCIS and other crime shows on TV. But what I like to be cancelled the most are some Australasian reality TV shows , like masterchef or Fantastic race , I hate it when the contestants cry for the most ridiculous stuff , they are always crying ,Ugghhh! I hate reality TV shows
I don't watch much tv, but I will when Game of thrones comes back on. I also love Spartacus."Reality" tv (faux tv) sucks!
:)) Games of thrones , my husband is counting the days for that. I love it too
I'm sorry ladies! I finished my book a couple of days ago, but I didn't post my review because I was under the weather. Better now. :)Week 8: Emergency Vehicle
The History of Love by Nicole Krauss
Read: Jan 21, 2013
Rating: ★★★
Short Review: This book was added to the 1001 Books List this year. It's an intertwining storyline about an old man, a book of love and a young girl. Normally this sort of thing is right up my alley. But, while I liked the way it was constructed, I couldn't get into it up until the last 50 pages. Disappointed, but maybe I'll try again in a year or so.
Items Found
1. Miscellaneous: Emergency Vehicle (Ambulance): "The ambulance came. At the hospital they pumped his blood."
- p7
2. Body Part: Nose: "When I took off the glasses the toolbox was there under my nose."
- p21
3. Clothing: Belt: "…now he schlepps it around clipped to his belt."
- p23
4. Weather: Lightning: "…a bolt of lightning that caused the first feeling of awe."
- p107

I only need lightning, nose ,fruit and sky.
Chaitra you'll need tail, elbow, fruit and bra
Ezi if I'm not mistaken you're going to claim rainbow , and tail and either belt or necklace , which leaves you with paper and either belt or necklace.
Kathy you'll only have to claim toe and paper.
We might claim all our items with the next 2 items. The best case scenario is if lightning is called this week

Week 8: Emergency Vehicle: AmbulanceBook: Long Hard Ride by Lorelei James
Finished: January 25
Rating& Review: 3-stars.
Umm, I was a little disappointed in this book. I didn’t mind the sex, but I mind the weakness of the characters. It was like the author tried to compensate for weak character development by throwing in a lot of sex.
The heroine seemed to Channing Kincaid came from a family were their legacy was stifling her own person desires so she ran away to the rodeo and basically became a groupie. I am glad she got to live out her sexual fantasies and found love. I don’t know if I will read book 2. I may in the future.
Items found:
Misc: Emergency Vehicle (Ambulance) “I wasn’t long before the far gate opened and an ambulance zoomed in.” (KL 3461 in Long Hard Ride)
Body Part (tail): “she’d already attached herself like one of those pesky sticky burrs that got caught up in the horse’s tails” (KL 1301 in Long Hard Ride)
Clothing (Necklace): “How about a necklace?” (KL 2098 in Long Hard Ride)
Weather ( Rainbow): "Life on the ranch ain’t always gonna be rainbows and butterflies" (KL 3712 in Long Hard Ride)
OH NO!!! Ez. I might change my book, cant be bothered with a book thats not going to do it for me!And ShoSho! Give our eyes a rest Pfft!
Here you are ladies......
This week is Rainbow
LMAO The stripes are too clean and precise , I'm itching to smudge them with my hands!
I don't what I'm going to read ,but whatever I read it'll be on Tuesday.
Kathy, read the book. I think I am treating Chan a little harder because I just read Jane yellowrock, Justine in Mind Games, Ellie in Fury etc.Now you have a girl who is trying to find herself. I was like, put on your big girl panties, woman!
the sexy was really sexy though--my goodness. i will read book 2.
@Shosho: those guys are quite nice and yummy
