Hahahaha that's fawesome :)

I'm looking forward to it!

[Ingie]

Hi Ladies! It will be fun to form a group with you in a few days.

[♣ Irish Smurfétté ♣]

Omg Ingela, I want to be in that band LOL

[BevS]

Never usually look forward to Mondays, but I am this week. So hope this one's good, but it has had mixed reviews. x

[BevS]

Darn it, can't see smilies or pictures on this ruddy kindle. Will have a look when I get home.

Haven't heard 'ruddy' in awhile, love it.

And mebbe tis time for a new kindle?
I'm very tempted to get a second one, gona see if they go on sale for the holidays.

[Ingie]

I just read three good reviews and trust them for now. So far 3.9 and it's actually quite okay. When a book is new is it maybe read by many ARC reviewers first, they can be tough with the stars. Either way, we three hopefully get a fun reading together. Right??

[BevS]

I love Barbara Elsborg. Her Cowboys Down was the first m/m I ever read and of course I was hooked! Every Move He Makes was really good...Well, I thought so although I think that got mixed reviews as well, and anyway as I told Andrea, Barbara's husband comes from the same town as me, and she's from not too far away herself, so I like to think I'm supporting a local writer, ha ha. x

[BevS]

Andrea, this is a kindle fire....I upgraded from a kindle keyboard, but this one has been going nuts just lately, typing words or letters I haven't typed, saying I don't have a Wi-Fi connection when I do, so I have to keep re-setting it, it's a ruddy nuisance (I'll use that word again as you like it). I think Amazon are going to be getting another phone call from me shortly, but I'd hate to think it's on its way out, I've got so much on here that hasn't come from them, and that isn't saved on Calibre, but I suppose I could save everything on there...would take me ages though, groans.

[♣ Irish Smurfétté ♣]

1) update Calibre before something permanently horrible happens! can't have a ruddy kindle fire causing you woes. I have a KF, too. Worked on updating Calibre this week - had something like 75+ books to add LOL.

2) ruddy!!!! :D

3) I'm assuming you turn it completely off, as oppose to just letting it sleep, which should help. Also, if you don't already, make sure and clear out cookies, history, etc., by going to Apps, then Silk (if that's what you use) and then choose the things you want to clean out - may help.

[BevS]

Thanks professor, I'll do that!! ♥

[♣ Irish Smurfétté ♣]

Hahahahaa I couldn't resist - I don't want you losing books or being at the mercy of a wee ruddy kindle fire LOL. :p
XX

[♣ Irish Smurfétté ♣]

I'm sure there is no need to ask LOL, but are we ready? I know I am! :D

Of course. When do we start? Our (Europe) evening on Monday?

[♣ Irish Smurfétté ♣]

I will probably start after work on Monday, which would be evening for you, so I'd say that's fine with me if Bev says ok, too! woot! LOL

[BevS]

Yep, Monday evening will suit me fine my dears. Want to finish Max & Tristan and another book I'm in the middle of now I've finished Dance with Me. There are 26 chapters in WoWH...shall we read up to the end of say chapter 8 and then have a chat (I can only assume that this will be more interesting than Turbulence)?? What do you Ladies think...suggestions please. ♥♥

[Ingie]

Sounds great with 8 chapter to start with.

[♣ Irish Smurfétté ♣]

Ch. 8 sounds good to me.
Here's hoping for better than Turbulence!

[BevS]

Double woot!! ♥♥

[Ingie]

It must be better... they are still on Earth at least. No odd enemies and a crowded space ship - it says it all..

[♣ Irish Smurfétté ♣]

hahahahaha you're prob right, Ingela :)

For my part, you are so welcome, I can not imagine that the other girls think otherwise.

We decided that we would start with the first eight chapters and then reconnect here about it. Me and Bev live here in Europe. Andrea lives in the U.S. and has an other time but said she also begins in a few hours (later in the night for us Europeans). Where do you live Telma (don't remenber)?

..We must be careful with spoilers until we know that we all read so far. :)

[Ingie]

Ladies, I start now. :)

No, that's fine with me. I will be starting tonight and as you say Ingela, NO spoilers until we've all got to chapter 8, hope it's a goodie. x

[♣ Irish Smurfétté ♣]

Hi all! Yes, no spoilers until chapter 8! LOL
I'll be starting once I get home from work tonight, so update when you want and I'll do so the same so that you'll see my progress tomorrow morning! :D
Lawdy, I hope it's good LOL.

[Ingie]

I have read a few pages and it starts in any case very direct and challenging. Not a beginning of a book for an innocent virgin of reading M/M erotica.

...I read so much slower and may need a head start to your fast reading ladies. :))))

[♣ Irish Smurfétté ♣]

Hahahahaa enjoy what starts like a hot start!! ;)

[BevS]

Woohoo, sounds just what we need Ingela!! x

[BevS]

It had ruddy well better be good Andrea!! hehe. x

[♣ Irish Smurfétté ♣]

Hahahahaa yes it had ruddy well be fab! :p :D xx

[Ingie]

It IS "rubby well" so far... LoL!

Good, nice to see you Telma! Enjoy!! :)

[BevS]

Oh yes, this is a big improvement on Turbulence, hehe!! I'm up to Chapter 5, and really enjoying it so far...Wilson the butler is a wonderful character, so droll and a really dry and sarcastic sense of humour, and of course, the heat between Tyler and Haris is simmering at the moment, they've only just met. x

Omg.... you said RUBBY... naughty chica! ;)
WOOT!!!

This already sounds promising...

[Ingie]

I'm a few pages into chapter five (17%) as well. I agree with you, the butler will probably become a favorite. There's nothing to complain about (view spoiler)[... a little scary with the cross etc previously... - you know what I mean - but I'm glad Haris was a good man and helping HERO. I love him for that!! :) (hide spoiler)]

[BevS]

Will do my best to read up to Chapter 8...if I can awake that is, but this is so much better than you know what!! x

WOOT!!!"

LoL!! I don't even know what "rubby" mean. Must look up that word ...

~~~~> later...

From "UD":
Rubby:
when a guys balls are bigger then his dick
DAMNNN that boy got a huge ass rubby

[♣ Irish Smurfétté ♣]

Welp, we originally said "ruddy", so look that up LOL.

Rubby has a whollllle other connotation! ;)

OMG I'm sooo RED in my face now. Yeah so this wacky and fun becomes the language problems when you have a Swedish with you here. :)))))

Ruddy was a much nicer and better word.

Ruddy
Strong, smart and handsome. A savory and sexy man.
Damn...he ruddy!

Sorry Ladies!!

I think I prefer your word Ingela....rubby it is!! Hehe, it's a great word. x

I'm at 23% now and (view spoiler)[soon I get to know if one of these two guys fit the (rubby) description. :))) - They are on the way home to Haris for their first night together. I think the book is really good so far. (hide spoiler)] ~ Gasps of delight!

[Ingie]

PS) I just saw that Tina gave 4 stars and that's promising. :)
