I have a busy day so I won't start book 3 until later....
Hi all- I finished book 1 and I'm so upset that I can't jump into book 2 till later today!! I'm on a sad happy cloud. It was absolutley wonderful!!!! Her writing is..........Beautiful!!,On another note-SueBee your tree is stunning!!!! I know it's hard work decorating but it just sets the mood. I decorated last night and hope to have the tree up later today after I run my errands!!
Irene -thanks for the morning candy ;-))
Wendy-have you got book 3 yet....I'm still waiting :-(
Deanna, so glad you enjoyed book 1! And I agree, her writing IS beautiful :) Can't wait to hear what you think of book 2 and anxiously awaiting your review (make sure it's full of Gandy! LOL!). And you are most welcome - best type of candy EVAH! He he ...
The Netgalley thing is taking longer to sort out, a few more days even. I thought mobi was coming directly from Publisher this morning? Check your emails in 10 minutes...
Hello lovelies ... Starting book two SOOOOON ... ❤❤❤

I think we are all set to continue our BR and I am not reading book 3 yet as I have house chores.... you ladies enjoy book 1 & 2.....
I am DYING to start book 3 but HAVE to read the 2nd one first because after having just finished book 1, I was shocked to see how much stuff I've forgotten/didn't pay attention to when I read it first time around. When do you guys figure you'll be ready for book 3??? Late tomorrow or Friday. I know Thanksgiving is tomorrow for US folks so ... HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!
Hi girls,Just finished book 3 and can I just say it all gets messy but so good after chapter 13. It's all candy before then.
On another note -
Gabriel's Redemption was classic SR. Just what the Muses and his readers expect of him. His new series Raven sounds really interesting.

I am starting book 3 today! Doing through Netgalley:
Downloaded book to be read, BUT
someone please explain the 2nd part with how to get credit for review por favor. I only read one book and I can't review that one until Feb 2014...
Hi Ladies- I'm back momentarily!! Sorry I have been away...had to deal with some stuff. I got a note from NewGalley today with books 2 and 3. Loving book 2 so far!!I'm off to gorge myself with turkey and the inlaws!!
Happy Thanksgiving or Happy Thurday!!
xo-
Happy thanksgiving Deanna! Glad to have you back temporarily!
NewGalley???? Deanna, how many glasses have you had, lol xoxox

SueBee... You go into the title and there is a Title feedback button. I go in there and basically copy and paste my review.... I don't know if that gets you credit, I'm guessing it must do. I don't know any other way.
xoxox
I'm on book 1 at 21%. I'm getting more into it now. Yay!!! Amsterdam... Wowza!!!
I've been on Netgalley for a while. You can link to a blog review only after the release date (which is now for KTQ) Sign in
Go to your account
You will see the books you've downloaded at the top. Click on the book and review. You can link to a blog review from there.
I prefer the second option which is a comment to the publisher that's hidden.
Re: Gabriel's Redemption
SR is da bom digity
Nuff Said
Pink Lady, Wait till Hong Kong
DED!!!

you do the feedback go to the right hand side of your shelf... there are stars... fill in the stars then there is a drop down menu i think - it will lead you to the screen to give feedback- you can cut and paste your link to the review at goodreads....
silly me- too busy writing to see it was answered... in a much better and informed way... as the church lady said on SNL.... never mind :DDDD
You're fine WM, I'm in books so it's second nature to me. Most of my ARCs are actually books though or in some cases specially printed A4 documents (those can be interesting) and fat as hell.
I'm an original Bunker Babe and Muse (if that means anything)
I've been around a long time promoting the stories that are now published. I actual was lucky enough to get E L James 1st editions all signed and out of her personal stock (was printed in UK especially for her, not Australia like the rest). And am one of very few who have true signed copies of Gabriel's Inferno & Rapture.
I'm a super lucky bugger. I know most of the authors in this genre quite well or very well.
With that in mind... For those who love SR, another author GG has just published the 1st of her trilogy. It's very similar to SRs and they are also friends. The 1st book is called The Weight of Words - much tamer than these books but well worth the read.
Also J. Kenner series; Release Me, Claim Me, Complete Me is very good.
The Beautiful Bastard Series by the girls Christina Lauren has just wrapped up with Beautiful Beginnings. That's a fun read. They will have a YA and another Steamy Fiction series in the new series.
They are great girls.
Are any of you going to the Fifty Shades Premier in Feb 2015? There are heaps of us going (old school) and there's always room for more if you want to meet like minded readers.
Most of us live over on twitter if any of you are over there feel free to tweet me. (Same name)

You can always post your feedback immediately. Just don't post it on GR. Netgalley wants your feedback right after you read the book in case they add it to book insert. What they DONT want is reviews posted publically until release date.
What's he said.
So we are not allowed to review till next December then????????
~ Irene ♥s ~ Søren ~ Ben O'Callahan ~ Joe Callahan ~ Javier ~ Manuel ~ wrote: "So we are not allowed to review till next December then????????"I doesn't say anywhere for this one but on other arcs it's specified not to publish until nearer the date, so I guess it would be the same for this??? Although by what Allison says it sounds like you can review/feedback to NG straight away??? I'm not entirely sure, Irene, maybe Squallogal would know?
The FSOG premiere sounds amazing, btw!!!
Jxxx, the reason I ask is because we are all reading the UK edition of the book which is to be released in less than a week to UK readers. So my question is, are we allowed to review it on GR on Dec 5th, which is the release date of the edition we are reading?
I would say yes to Dec 5th. Or even now as the UK kindle editions are now live. You should put a note though that it is read as Knight Takes Queen
Eg... 5stars read as the UK edition Knight Takes Queen
I loved this book because......
You get the gist I am sure.
- 50 shades prem will be unhinged. You're more than welcome to come. Girls are coming in from all over the UK, Europe, Australia, America... You name it. Almost all the original Bunker Babes will be there as well as many Muses. Lots of the twitteratti can be seen there making a nusence of ourselves drinking, partying, fangirling and having a good time.
Let me know closer to Feb 2015 if you're coming and I will hit you up with the details.

As far as reviews because it's linked to the US editions you may want to not drop many spoilers & definitely keep them hidden. Most of my reviews are emotion, reading experience based. I give an overview of my experience as a reader. how I felt. How was the flow, characterisation, plot, editing. Was it worth my time. How did it make me feel.
I know many of you don't work that way but I'm sure you'll find the right balance for your readers and followers.
11% (view spoiler) book TWO! Yes I've finally started ... Where is everyone else at not seen much chat about the book ❤️❤️
Lisa, I just finished book 2 (was home all day so had nothing else to do but read) and diving into book 3 ... Please post away. I'd love to see people's take on this who are reading this for the first time :)
I agree Irene. Post your review. Not much you can do with the US version being way down the road. They want reviews to promote sales obviously. Maybe just don't roll it over to the US version yet? I've not got much reading done. I think I'm about 60% into book 2.
I was hoping to re- read the Gabriel series prior to Tuesday but doesn't look promising. I hope I can remember the end of book 2.
