Adam wrote: "Well done! Presumably your tbr has plenty of fodder?"It does, and my bookcase has a lot too. Plus, I got a Kindle for my birthday last week, and that's full of free/cheap books I picked up :)
Well done!
I don't think that amazon invite the indies to join in with their sales, Adam... :0(

Wow, I've just finished reading
I've sat up until 12:45AM reading it because I couldn't sleep until I finished it, definitely up there in my favourites
I'm just poking in now, Rebecca. Forgive the tardiness. Lovely to see another thread started in my baby section <3
I like having somewhere to list what I've read :) And I like looking at other people's challenges to get ideas for more books to read (as if I need any more books in my tbr list :P)
Just finished
I was looking forward to this and it didn't disappoint. Can't wait for
Getting down them, Rebecca. When you've done, you can read some of the ones on my to read list and tell me if they're any good. I just don't have enough time :~/
Haha, I don't think I even have time to read the ones on my own to read list :) I'm looking forward to reading
should get round to it soon :)

'Then I caught a sense of it, like a taste in the back of my mouth. Magic,they weren't just guys looking for trouble. They were Vampyre with trouble written all over them. And there were two more, less than a metre and a half away.'

'Everyone knows that these wars have torn our country apart, have destroyed our prosperity, our friendliness between neighbours, our trust of strangers, the love between brothers, the safety of our roads, the affection for our king; and yet nothing seems to stop the battles.'

'His scent assaults my nose. Someone should seriously bottle it up for me. His voice gives me goosebumps. He's much taller than I thought. I'm 5'7" and wearing heels and I still have to tilt my head to look at him. I finally manage to croak out, "I'm fine." He smiles at me. I feel faint. If it were possible, I'd melt.'

'We may be of the same family but that is the very reason why we are not friends, for we are rivals for the throne. What quarrels are worse than family quarrels? We may all be cousins; but they are of the house of York and we are of the house of Lancaster. Never forget it.'

'I danced until the sun set and the sky grew dark. I danced until I tore through the same CD three times. I danced until I'd chugged down two liters of water. But no matter how hard I danced, or how intensely I concentrated on perfecting each and every step, I never stopped thinking about Jude.'

'We stand hand-clasped, our faces quite blank, as if this were not a nightmare that tells me, as clearly as if it was written in letters of fire, what ending a girl may expect if she defies the rules of men. I am not only here to witness what happens to a heretic. I am here to witness what happens to a woman who thinks she knows more than men.'

Lady of the Rivers is my bath book at the moment! I'm not very far into it yet
Fuel to the fire would be a good bath book, Jud, as it'd keep the water hot ;~)
I don't know where you live David but my hot water comes from a tap, I don't burn books underneath my bath to heat the water.
Haha, It's only available as an ebook anyway, so wouldn't burn too well.
Don't you know Jud is banned from bringing kindle into bath now?

'The Balance, my boy, is the war that has been waged since before time was time, the battle within ourselves to do what is good and reject what is bad. It is a delicate line we all walk, a constant struggle of push and pull.'

'She was alive, and although if anyone were to find out the truth, they would seek to brand her a monster. They would be wrong; she was now so much more than Juliet Carlson.'

'I'd never felt more vulnerable than I did the moment Derek Novak's electric blue eyes settled on me. His gaze betrayed the thoughts roaming his mind. I was a lamb - a lamb ready for slaughter.'

'I had a fleeting second of incredulity that there'd ever been a time I hadn't known the extent of the supernatural world. And here I sat in Lucky Bar-B-Q with two witches, two part-demons, a telepath, and a weretiger.'

'She was gone, and yet she was more present than anyone else. I'd fallen in love with Amy because I was the ultimate Nick with her. Loving her made me superhuman, it made me feel alive.'

'Everything felt way too big in this house. With all this vast space between everything, it felt like I was trapped on an island. I always thought that's what I wanted, to be my very own island. But here I was, and I felt nothing but isolated and confused.'

'Does he treat you with respect at all times? That's the first question. The second question is, if he is the exact same person twenty years from now that he is today, would you still want to marry him? And finally, does he inspire you to want to be a better person? You find someone you can answer yes about to all three, then you've got yourself a good man.'

'She suddenly realised that it didn't matter. Maybe it wasn't about ever getting over it. It was about finding the truth, getting justice for Clint, stopping worse things from happening. There was no time for self-pity. She had a big job ahead.'

'Somewhere deep down inside her, there was a puzzle she could not solve. This feeling made her uneasy and edgy, so she buried it away and kept it hidden. In her dreams though, came the desire to seek it out. And in her dreams something, or someone, was seeking her.'
