Wicken4 | 6 comments Hoping you can all help. I was perusing books on the weekend, and one book kept showing up in the reccomendations. and on the side of Goodread. I read the blurb which was

*insert heroine's name here*was twenty-five, and had been involved in playing/fighting in the games for ten years. *insert man here*, who had been involved in the games for FOUR HUNDRED years, challenged the heroine to a series of games. Winner takes all basically.

I have done a forty hour work week searching for the title of this book. I thought that I marked it as too be read, but obviously haven't. I thought that the words Sin and Games were in the title, but I have searched those and found nada. No familiar titles popped up under the tags of urban, games, survivor, four hundred years, etc. Nothing under a title search with the words Sin, nor Games.

Does this book exist or am I crazy?

Themis-Athena (Lioness at Large) (themis-athena) | 71 comments Maybe something from Christine Feehan's Ghost Walker or Iris Johansen's Eve Duncan series?

What other books have you been reading lately? Who are your favorite authors? What books did you look at when you were perusing books on the weekend? Recommendations and blurbed ads are based on the data gleaned from your reading preferences. Maybe retracing your steps might turn out to be a way to come across the same add/recommendation again?

Wicken4 | 6 comments Themis, I checked some of those out, and no hits. I know it was an author that I wasn't familiar with. I'll delete my cookies, and then go checking out, from web page to web page what I had been looking at, and hope that it pops up again!

Wow. Out a mere 3 weeks and already 21 reviews, most of which are 5 stars. I hope you'll enjoy the book, too, Wicken!

Wicken do you want to move this to solved, Possibly-Solved or just wait til you find a copy and double check?

Wicken4 | 6 comments I can move this to solved. It is the book for sure. How do I move it?


message 9: by Wicken4 (new) - added it

Wicken4 | 6 comments I think I figured it out - this should now be in the SOLVED folder.

Thanks to everyone for their help and suggestions.
