Interesting, Amaya. I'm not on Tumblr. I've never figured it out or how it can match what I'm into.

LOL tumblr is great tho for those who dont want to have to deal with socializing unless they choose to do so.

Amaya, I may need that SK blog link! I haven't been on tumblr much lately, mostly because everything I saw was a repeat, but that would all be very new to me! Could you give me a link or the name of it? I'd be very grateful!
As for reviews, I want to know went on in the book, but only in a general way. Sometimes book descriptions are not worth the time it took to write them, giving no info at all about the book, so I have to rely on reviews. But I accidentally got majorly spoiled on the fourth book of the Chicagoland Vampires series, which has become my all time favorite. I then had to search reviews for the fifth book to see if I should continue, because that was one big bad I didn't think any series could recover from. And knowing about it didn't make me any less prepared when the big bad actually took place. All it did was put a knot of dread in my gut for the whole book!! So now I try to watch very carefully at how the reviewer is writing their review, because you can usually tell if they are going to blurt something out you don't want to know, just by how excited or uexcited they are in the beginning.
Angie, you may discuss anything you want. If you wanna respond to an old question to spark conversation by all means, go right ahead. And if by chance one of us mods hasnt posted a question, feel free to do so.
New Question: I rarely read reviews anyway but it would depend on the book or the author. If I read a review for authors' work that I'm familiar with then I would prefer little to no spoilers. I don't wanna read anything that would reveal a major plot point or discovery.If I'm unfamiliar, I'm usually looking for insights into the characters or plot to make sure it doesn't hit any major pet peeves so I wouldn't mind spoilers too much

They were not involved in the abuse that happened to him and he shouldn't be punishing them for it. ..."This was one of my main issues when I started hearing more of the book. I hadn't read it yet and I honestly had no intention of doing so at that point but that put me off. Angry, controlling man with momma issues!? It reminded me of all the 'NA' books that were being released with stalkerish, possessive, emotionally damaged and abusive men. I just said pass and kept it moving. I hadn't discovered my love for hulk raging book statuses yet that Amaya and Dhfan find entertaining so no one got to see how I felt about em.

Lol Y'all recommended that book to me as a prank so blah >.>
pfft >.> idk what ure talking about. u must have dreamed that up.
I just want to let y'all know that you're awesome! As a new member to the group, I can tell you that I read a few of the threads first to make sure it was a group I'd hopefully fit into. One of the things that drew me in was the banter between members, which y'all are throwing out right now! An online group that comes together for an author they like seem to end up more as friends than just acquaintances, as you two are proving so well right now. Thanks for being so awesome and making this group fun and easy to jump into.
clearly u are unaware of the fact that shari and i absolutely cant stand each other whatsoever. LOL. jokes aside, welcome to the group angie ^.^.
Thanks! And I can just feel the hate between you guys through all the wires of the interwebz. Lol!!
Lol we love each other here *crosses fingers behind back*
shari is the convincing one in the group -nods- tsk tsk
Y'all aren't related are you? Cuz you're acting like I do with my two closest cousins! Lol!
Woot more 50 shades and Tumblr shout outs. We have struck gold on both topics, sis lol.And yea, you usually get a great rapport around here when great minds come together. And happy to have you with us Angie. ;)
She hasn't seen how hilarious you can be yet. omg I forgot my fav joke from you. I remember it being unexpected and I almost died
Aww, thanks girlies. I do have my moments and I'm sure I'll come up with something else to make the record books. Watch out. ;)
New Questions: What shows are you excited for this Fall!? What shows are you sad to know won't be coming back!? b>
e.e the shows i watch wont start up again until next year
Dang. Next year. Thats a long wait
Thats what we will be thinking in like two weeks once we've had our shot of SON....
Shari-amor wrote: "Dang. Next year. Thats a long wait"ikr x.x. ironically most of the stuff i watch seems to come on around the same time rofl. but one show isnt coming back and the other one im not sure if it will be or not. the rest should be some time at the beginning of the year.
Ironically the shows momz turned me onto: Grey's Anatomy(especially now that Meredith has a half sister from her mom's affair in the past :D), Scandal, Heck even that other new one by Shonda Rhimes with the law school students looks good. Still awaiting word about Switched at Birth. Been searching high and low for any news on that if it's coming back next year since they just wrapped up this season during the summer. But there is quite the cliff hanger just hanging on, so really wanna know how that pans out. Pretty Little Liars is upped for 2 more seasons already so no worries there. So is vamp diaries and the Originals.I'm leery on Arrow a bit since he isn't doing as much revenge style taking out folks like the first season. But I'm digging the bad guy on there. Chrisley Knows Best for damn sure is back! If any one wants to laugh out loud totally check this out on USA. That dude is hilarious. Grimm for sure is coming back and can not wait. I'm really hoping Devious Maids is coming back. Another major cliff hanger moment from last season is hanging in the balance. As usual can't wait for Once Upon a Time. I'm leery on Lost Girl lately too. It's seems to been bitten by the weirdness that affects most Syfy shows these days. Leery on Resurrection as well. But once dead folks come back from various time periods start cropping up. There is a story there.
Criminal Minds and Big Bang Theory, as always. I'm very sad still about Psych being over. Also Once Upon A Time. Can't wait to see what all they do with Frozen.I'm adding Arrow and The Flash to my weekly.
But I'm most excited about The Walking Dead! Every season gets more intense, and this one is going to be 16 episodes of intense walker awesomeness. And I was so wrong about where one of the characters is, so I can't wait to see how she ended up there and how they're going to find her.
Watching Intruders on BBC America too. It's interesting. Based on a novel, and developed by one of The X-Files producers.
Aaaw Psych. Don't mention Psych. I miss Gus and Shawn :-(
I'm hella annoying that Almost Human isn't coming back. That was my show.
Definitely excited about The Walking Dead, American Horrorstory, New Girl, Grimm, Orphan Black, and Sleepy Hollow

always wanted to see the walking dead but never did.
lmao wanna see intruders just bc of the fact that one of the x-files producers is involved! didnt know it started yet tho. just saw a commercial for it the other day.
Amaya, it started this past Saturday after Doctor Who. Comes on at 9 Central.Walking Dead is on Netflix. Be warned, though, it's INTENSE. You either love it or hate it.

oh! ty!
gah e.e that sucks, i dont have netflix rofl. thought it was on regular tv :s. yeah thats what it seems like from a lot of ppl that ive seen commenting on tumblr about the walking dead o_o.
Walking Dead comes on AMC, and season five starts in October. It's not a show you can jump in on. You have to watch it from the beginning or you have no idea what's going on and where the characters are coming from.
OH! thanks XD. one of these days i shall try it out.

I even liked Private Practice, the spin off from Grey's. And speaking of people that are formerly of Grey's popularity, Chyler Leigh, who played Lexi Grey, has a new show on NBC called Taxi Brooklyn. I just happened to catch it last night and it was episode 10, which bums me out and I'll now have to find the first 9 somewhere online, since most summer shows don't get repeats.
I have quite a few shows that I'll watch religiously for a few years, Grey's being one of those, and then all of a sudden I lose interest. But I may have to find the last couple years of Grey's online to catch up if Meredith has a new sister!! That's a twist I'd never have seen coming!
Psych is and was a favorite, though I didn't watch the last couple seasons. Shawn and Gus were amazingly hilarious.
Rookie Blues is another summer show that I absolutely love, but have missed quite a few episodes. And I'm also very sad about Almost Human. The robot guy is beyond hot, and I'll have to keep an eye out to see if he gets in on another show soon.
Criminal Minds is one of my absolute favorites, but I'm so sad about Prentis still that I lost interest the whole time Blake was on, which sucks because I missed some pretty major events. SSA Derek Morgan and Dr Spencer Reid make that show worth it, though why I think too opposites in every way are so hot is not something I can explain. Garcia is awesome in her own right, and I think JJ doesn't get nearly enough airtime. Rachel also mentioned Big Bang Theory, which is just too hilarious. Sheldon makes that show worth watching, the others just add to the appeal.
I know I'm forgetting some shows. True Blood has been a must watch show for me, not because of the plot, but because of Mr Alexander Skarsgård. That man is beyond hot! But Eric and Pam are about the only reasons I kept watching, even though their relationship was so different than in the books. Which is the norm for that show, changing everything that happened in the books since the first season, and even that was a little off.
Angie, Blake is gone! She never clicked for me either and I won't miss her. She didn't add to the team in any way, and I think the writers realized it. No idea if they're bringing in another person to try to take Prentiss's place or not. I want to say I heard they're not. Which is fine with me.Oh yes, Derek Morgan... I was watching the one episode I missed last season, last night, and had to pause it for a minute while my sister told me something. I paused it at just the right place where sexy Derrick filled the screen. I've watched since the beginning and never miss an episode. This one I missed the DVR died before I had a chance to watch it.
If you have streaming Netflix ALL of Criminal Minds is on there now. There is lots of rewatching in my future.
You HAVE to at least watch the 100th episode. It's Psych does Clue, with Christopher Lloyd and Leslie Ann Warren as guest stars. It was HILARIOUS! One of the best ever. The musical was also a fine piece of Psych cinematic achievement.
Angie wrote: "Dhfan4life wrote: "Ironically the shows momz turned me onto: Grey's Anatomy(especially now that Meredith has a half sister from her mom's affair in the past :D), Scandal, Heck even that other new o..."I've seen briefly an episode of Taxi Brooklyn. Just not quite my thing. Cop and medical shows just aren't quite my thing.
I loved the CLUE episode of Psych. I remember they had a few alternate endings and fans got to vote who they wanted to be the killer. That was pretty cool
I watched it, and voted. It's one of my favorite episodes.
I need a Psych marathon now. I miss that opening song and how they'd remix it to the theme of certain episodes. I remember they had boys to men do an A cappella version one episode
Shari-amor wrote: "I need a Psych marathon now. I miss that opening song and how they'd remix it to the theme of certain episodes. I remember they had boys to men do an A cappella version one episode"I'd bet the a cappella version was on one of the episodes where Urkle and another guy, whose name I couldn't tell you if you paid me, were in an a cappella group with Gus, the second episode the fourth guy was murdered and Shawn was convinced he should be in the group and was obnoxious about it. Shocking that Shawn would be pushy and obnoxious about anything, I know! Lol!
Rachel, I did watch the last few episodes of last season, and I just about went crazy use in that week between the two part season finale!! My two men had been shot and they kept saying "see which of our agents won't be back". OMG that was a painful week!! And I'm not upset Blake is gone, though she did give Spence a run for his money on smarts! Matthew Gubler Grey is an amazing artist, I follow him on twitter and Facebook, and he's always sharing stuff he drew, painted or tells about his upcoming film projects. He's an accomplished writer and director, and has even directed a few episodes of CM!! His directorial debut on CM was the one where ended up with some disease that a crazy had cooked up and almost everyone that caught it (from a park and coffee shop I believe) died. I think only he and one other patient survived, but I could be mixing up with some other virus episode.
I don't think I saw the CLUE episode of Psych, though now I'm going to have to look for it! ION used to have Psych marathon every Friday, but it seems about the same time the show ended, they quit showing it on ION. Very disappointing.
Haha! Yes! Shawn wanted to be in that group so bad. He jumped at the chance when they finally let him. I loved seeing Gus singing and dancing.
Shari-amor wrote: "Haha! Yes! Shawn wanted to be in that group so bad. He jumped at the chance when they finally let him. I loved seeing Gus singing and dancing."It was a great episode! I loved seeing Urkle, whose real name I can't think of due to brain malfunction, in an almost serious role. He's done guest spots on tons of shows, but seeing him on some of my favorites is great.

Jamaal White I think Urkele's real name is.
Dhfan4life wrote: "Jamaal White I think Urkele's real name is."Yes! Jamal I think may be how his first name is spelled, two a's after the m doesn't quite seem right. But you totally spelled the character's name right, which I knew I wasn't getting right but didn't know how it's supposed to be spelled.
