Brandy  (grim_darkling) | 70 comments Okay, so I made this discussion thingy to help with the wait until July when Fifth Grave Past The Light comes out.
So feel free to talk about the upcoming book and what you think will go down or how the wait is killing you(or is that just me?) And of course I want to talk about Reyes, duh. I just re-read the series and remembered how much I love it. I've never created a discussion topic but I decided to give it a go, so be gentle lol

Thanks Brandy! Did you read the YA series Darynda wrote...Mega good. And there is a bad boy to love! Death and the Girl Next Door (Darklight, #1) by Darynda Jones ,
Death, Doom and Detention (Darklight, #2) by Darynda Jones , Meanwhile: we need to clone Reyes, 'cause there will be some major hair pulling, scratching, biting. And then I'll get mean!


Brandy  (grim_darkling) | 70 comments Yea, I'm gonna have to check that out. And I'm totally on board with cloning Reyes, that could only benefit the world. I mean DAMN. Just reading his name makes me shiver lol

Ines (slayraa) | 684 comments Lol, loved the cloning idea! And it will be a tough wait, let's see what happens to Charley and her sister. I'm worried about her sister, don't know why.

Yea, I'm worried what will happen to her. I hope it's nothing horrible, she's not as tough as Charley


Cindy (cindymac52) I think you'll all be surprised at how tough Charley's sister can really be! Step-monster...not so much. I'm still reeling over Papa's upside down, bass ackward betrayal. Big weenie! I think 5th Grave is time for romance and teamwork. A true meeting of Devil & Angel!

Well I'm not saying she's not strong, I'm just saying she's no grim reaper. She definitely has to be strong just by being Charley's sister and surviving the step-monster(nicely put btw)
I can't believe the betrayal either, that was just low. And I really hope book 5 has more romance and teamwork too. I hate when Charley and Reyes are mad at each other :/

Ines (slayraa) | 684 comments She has to be strong enough to step out using Charley's pants! Hehe
Oh Angel and Reyes... a conversation between those two would be awesome!


Brandy  (grim_darkling) | 70 comments lol I don't think there would be much conversation, mostly fighting, but idk


message 13: by Ines (new) - rated it 5 stars

Ines (slayraa) | 684 comments Not sure about that, Angel seems to be afraid of Reyes and it would be weird if he fought him. On the other hand, Reyes knows Angel is Charley's friend so maybe he wouldn't beat him too bad. Who knows? I'd like to know! :)


Brandy  (grim_darkling) | 70 comments I know he's afraid of him, but he's also not the type to back down, so who knows? Maybe we'll find out :)


message 15: by Mel (new) - rated it 5 stars

Mel | 829 comments I wanna know how Charley and Reyes will work through Reyes living with and using the skank while he was a fighter. I could not move past it easily if I was Charley. Charley needs to find exciting ways to tease and torture him into begging for her forgiveness.

Yea, I feel like that was a betrayal. It still bothers me and it didn't even happen to me. But then I just have to remind myself that Charley was making out with Donovan so that was kind of payback to Reyes. I know they'll move past all that, but I agree with the teasing and torturing. That would be fun :P

Supposedly Reyes was being noble by keeping his evil self and all the demons away from Charley. But now that they know who she is he has to be closer, thus the move in next door. As for the "skank", I would make him grovel, alot. Maybe have him pay off her shopping bills, clean the bathroom (naked), walk the dog...


Brandy  (grim_darkling) | 70 comments 62 more days....I need a time machine!

Time machine would be perfect, yes! Hehe


Brandy  (grim_darkling) | 70 comments 61 Days left....it seems like so far away


Stephanie (thirstyflea) | 223 comments TOO far away! Didn't one of you lovely ladies make a countdown ticker last year for 4th Grave? Maybe we could have one for this release? (nudge nudge wink wink hint hint)


Brandy  (grim_darkling) | 70 comments Great idea! I didn't even think about that, thanks


Brandy  (grim_darkling) | 70 comments Ok, so I need help. I'll admit it. I tried to get the countdown ticker on here, but I can't get it to work. So if anyone knows how to do it, please help. Thanks :)

Hmmm...I have a countdown ticker, but it's not letting me post the code correctly for you. Let me play a bit and see if I can get it posted


Traci (Mad Hatter Reads) (traci-madhatterreads) | 609 comments Mod
Well ladies, I've not been able to get the countdown code to post. If you want to message me with your email addresses I'll send you the code.

Ines (slayraa) | 684 comments Loved those 2 first chapters, can't believe the book has hardly started and Charley already caused mayhem together with Cookie. Love love love those two! :D

Oh yea, loved the 2 chapters we got to read, and when it was over I was really sad, and just kept staring at my computer like AHHHH, I need more lol

Know exactly how you feel! Scrolling down and having nowhere to go is torture, pure torture!

Rae Lloyd | 2 comments Where can I get those first two chapters to read? Are you guys going to be buying the book or waiting on line at the library like me? Lol

You can read the first 2 chapters on Darynda's Facebook page. Here's the link:

https://www.facebook.com/#!/darynda.j...

I'll be purchasing an e-copy for my Nook (okay...I'll be preordering it so I have it bright and shiny on release day).


message 34: by Rae (new) - rated it 5 stars

Rae Lloyd | 2 comments Awesome! Thanks. I kinda feel like I need to re read all of the books before I read this next one. I hate reading other books in between and then confusing story lines lol. That's the annoying part about the library. Ill wait for books and get my series all confused

message 36: by Kyra (new) - rated it 5 stars

Kyra | 78 comments so, does Reyes work as a chef in Charley's dad's bar? I was listening to the sample audio of chapter one and with the dead guy continuously glancing to the kitchen, Charley feeling the heat, and all the women suddenly showing up, the thought crossed my mind.


Brandy  (grim_darkling) | 70 comments That's a good point. I didn't even think about that!


Brandy  (grim_darkling) | 70 comments 18 more days! It's getting closer :)


message 39: by Mel (new) - rated it 5 stars

Mel | 829 comments Cannot wait to discuss this one with all of you! ;)


Stephanie (thirstyflea) | 223 comments I can't wait to read it!! I can't even bring myself to read the first 2 chapters because I won't want to stop! I need the whole book! Now!! ;-)


message 41: by Mel (new) - rated it 5 stars

Mel | 829 comments I understand Stephanie. I hate teasers (and cliffhangers) because I am impatient and always am dying to read the rest of the book. I rarely read teaser chapters either.

Stephanie (thirstyflea) | 223 comments Thanks Mel! I always feel like I'm such a "bad fan" but I just can't do it ;-)

Mel | 829 comments You are not a bad fan. Have you pre-ordered the book? If so, you are a loyal fan.


Stephanie (thirstyflea) | 223 comments Of course it is pre-ordered! I even thought about taking that day off so I can read it straight through ;-)


message 46: by Mel (new) - rated it 5 stars

Mel | 829 comments It took me a couple of evenings. I am also going to get the audiobook. Cannot wait to discuss with all of you. :)


Brandy  (grim_darkling) | 70 comments 11 more days! It's getting so close, I can't wait!


Meigan Ugh...I made the mistake of preordering with other preorders, and now they will all be shipping together...in August :( Everyone but dummy me will be reading in 11 days.


message 49: by Mel (new) - rated it 5 stars

Mel | 829 comments So sorry :(


Brandy  (grim_darkling) | 70 comments I'm so sorry, I couldn't imagine waiting another month
:(
