[Jojobean]

for Monday and Tuesday I would like to read mayb 5 chapters a day because I have to spend the majority of the day after work typing up lesson plans that are due on Wednesday for the month of march. I'm going to try my hardest to get it all done tomorrow but its a lot of work and it may carry over into Tuesday. but definately by Wednesday we can pick up the pace.

is that ok for everyone?

[Jojobean]

btw Trisha, did u ever get the second zom-b book yet?

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

I did, but I noticed you finished...so I wasn't sure if I should read it or not...

I can read it tomorrow ;) was it good?

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

5 chapters Monday and Tuesday 5 chapters. I can definitely do that! Sounds like a plan!

[Jojobean]

thanks.

zom-b underground was ok. not as good as the first one but still good. you should def. read it

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

Okay, it's on the pile for me to read today! I'll go to the Zomb-b thread once I'm done and post :D

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

Okay, I'm 5 chapters in...
and I'm having fun trying to guess who is who!
I'm terrible with the only fairy tales (the REAL stories) so I think I'm failing pretty bad on guessing! LOL

is everyone else enjoying it!?

[Jojobean]

Hey. I'm gonna start the book in a few minutes. I just wanted to let everyone know that I finished my lesson plans today so if you want to start reading more chapters for tomorrow that's be good with me.

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

great, I have a few other books I'm trying to get through and then I'll pick this one back up ;) congrats on getting all the planning done!

[Jojobean]

Thanks. It wasn't as bad as the last few months so thats good.

How many chapters do you wanna read for tomorrow?

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

I'm good with however many. you can set it :) I'll stop where you want me to!

[Jojobean]

How about 10 tomorrow, so we'll be up to chapter 15?

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

sounds perfect. I can't wait. the book has a great start.

I'm still trying to figure who everyone is! I'm so bad at this! :D

[Jojobean]

hey. so far I love the book. blue and miras attitudes are hilarious.

I love fairy tales so I was able to figure out who the characters were easily. I would want to be The Little Mermaid but her fairytale is so sad . I'd like to be a mermaid though. The Little Mermaid is my favorite Disney movie.

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

lol I love the Mermaid Disney story! The one in this one sounds so sad!!!

Have you figured everyone out? Because I'm dying to know...who is blue??? he can't be the genie (it was the only "blue" person I could think in the disney movies) but I have to be wrong....

:) I love this so far! I'm getting ready to pick it back up! :D

[Jojobean]

blue is not in any of the traditional fairy tales. his curse is more like a paranormal curse. its all very secretive Bout his curse.

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

okay, lol
sorry, I fell asleep on the book last night! I plan to finish this one today ;)

[Jojobean]

I most likley will be done by tomorrow. I got a lot of stuff to do today so I prolly won't be reading :(. I hate when I can't read

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

Wow. So I finished it. And wow

It was not at all what I thought! Lol I guess a few curses correctly but certainly not all!!

How did you do at guessing? And what'd you think?

[Jojobean]

Ok so I finished the book.

I absolutely loved it. I dunno about you but I fell for Blue as soon as Mira met him. He's my kinda guy (Loved the piercing). All he needed was tattoos :D

I loved the way Mira and Blue interacted with each other. They were really funny especially when they were insulting each other. (view spoiler)[ I'm glad they ended up together. Oh and near the end I totally called that she was going to ask her god parents to soften his curse. I figured that out when they kept saying her godmothers soften her curse. I was really sure about it Freddie kissed her to wake her up. (hide spoiler)]

I really didnt like the relationship between Mira and Felix. Um Hello can he say Jail bait? She just seemed stupid when it came to him even when she found out what his curse really entailed. She wanted to make excuses for everything she saw. I was so over it by the middle of the book. (view spoiler)[ BTW when Felix had her in his chamber I so called that she was gonna use the razor to put herself in her enchanted sleep. did you? (hide spoiler)].

I totally guessed all the fairy tales even the Match girl that Blue told her he saved. The only one I didn't get was Blue and Felix's. Once it was revealed what it was I was like "Oh S***" cause I know how that tale goes.

I still feel some things were missing at the ends like (view spoiler)[Where did Felix go? What about her parents? Did she meet them? What were they like? And of course since this is a book about fairy tales did Mira and Blue get married and live happily ever after? (hide spoiler)]

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

yay!! i'm so glad you liked it!

I really liked it too!!

Ugh, YES! the relationship with Felix just made no sense to me. She didn't even know him and she just fell for him. I mean right off the bat she wanted to be in his room in his bed with him. It was so confusing!!

I LOVED BLUE!! The boy was so sweet even when he was being grumpy - because I even thought his grumpy was so cute!

You guessed she'd soften it! I didn't catch that at all until she was doing it! I thought that was great.

But do you think she'll stay out of the room? A tough thing to keep that key in your pocked. Do you think you'd want to know how many girls? And how do you wake them up?

ugh...that was so creepy when she was caught in the room with Felix :( all those girls just shoved around it was awful

I agree. when I got to the end I was like...wait! but where are her parents??? And where the heck did Felix go?

I like to think they did get their HEA though :) but maybe that's just me! LOL

is this a stand alone! It was such a fun book!

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

I would totally read another book in this series about another twisted fairy tale in this town!

[Kathy]

Sorry I didn't mean to bail on you guys, I thought I would finish the other book in time and I should've said something. :(

[Jojobean]

i don't think she'll go in the room. blue hasn't hidden anything from her. he told her about the girl he killed and if he told her about that then there would be no reason to not tell her about any others. but I doubt blue has anymore because of the way he was so depressed about killing one girl and how he took the necessary steps to not ever do it again.

I wouldn't go into the room as long as the person I was with was honest like blue was. I'd destroy the key so I'd never be tempted.

[Jojobean]

I also like to think they got their HEA too. I'm sappy like that.

[Jojobean]

kathy, its fine. life gets in the way sometimes. its cool

I don't remember what it was now, but I thought but I thought blue said something that eluded to maybe there was more than one body in his 'room'....

I know..I'm sappy too sometimes. I needed them to have their HEA :) LOL
