He was pretty hot in that movie but I think anyone dressed like that would be awesome. Well maybe not anyone but Brad Pitt would be an awesome Thor.

No but I did see Pitt in Troy...over and over and over. He has that determined look in his eyes. I love that look.

Yeah, I think if anything I'll toss one of hers in every now and then, but I'm definitely not doing a series read by her anytime soon. I think all JLA fans are seriously bummed out right now, she was like a writing goddess to me and I feel like she went and made herself too commercial. She's out of touch with her readers!!

Oh, I'm just going to have to start this if they're that good! Loving the idea of something different!

You should Erin this series is very good and highly addictive!


I still need to watch this one Tracy but I'm planning on it and I also need to get back to the series too.

Sure thing. so glad you grabbed it too Tracy. It's really good.

OMG YUM Hemsworth LOVE all things Marvel :) Sigh... Thor! Loki!

Hahahaha! Oh goodness we always seem to have our minds in the smexy gutter don't we?!! Oh and YUM Brad Pitt :P

Mmmm..THOR! ..."
Bwahahahaha! No worries Brooke, right there with you girl he's so dang purtie hahahaha!

Loved The Avengers!










I'm enjoying hers more than Phury's that's for sure. Ughhhhh I would just rather learn crap from the others POV and be surprised what Xcor does. I don't like knowing what the villain is planning, because if the other characters head in the direction of this guy I scream in my head "Noooooo don't go there it's a trap, no no no ITS A TRAP!!" Or things like thst lol.

Don't forget his stint on Dancing with the Stars.

I'm going to get the DVD because I will want to watch later. The movie stayed pretty true to the book. Of course they embellished but it is Hollywood.

I know what you're saying Erin. I got bummed with her a while back. Maybe she will realize she is doing something wrong and change it.

I know the feeling. Sometimes I will get in a slump and nothing I pick up interests me but when you find that one that does it makes everything better.

I finished
and even though I loved the story or the idea of what the story is I didn't care as much for the author's writing. I'm not sure if it was because this was new for her or if she just writes this way. I may have to read something else by her to see.

Yes, commercial. She's churning things out and the quantity is affecting her quality for sure.

I think just the opposite. I loved Blood of Eden and thought this one needed much more world building and character work. Glad you enjoyed it.

Haven't read all weekend! I am still reading
. Obviously it's not holding my attention since I've been reading it for almost a week. I need to start something else, I think, and then come back to it.



I thin..."
Well, the first book had a lot to do with discovering the secrets behind Talon and St. George. I am sure they will discover more as they go. My problem with Blood of Eden was I just didnt give a damn about any of the characters. Zeke was the biggest disappointment. But all the characters in Talon were awesome. Especially Ember and Riley.


Oh fantastic Rebecca, I'll move it up to my tbr then. I really want to read a satisfying dragon story.

I really liked her Blood Of Eden trilogy too Brooke, especially the first 2 books :)

It still wasn't enough for me. I have no idea WHY they are fighting. I needed that in the first book. Otherwise it was just all fluff for me. And the MC went against everything she was ever taught without a second thought. I do like Riley, a lot. But I did not connect with Ember at all. I was really disappointed. I read the first chapter a while back and it sucked me right in. So when I got the ARC I was super excited. But it just didn't live up to my expectations. To each his own, for sure :)

I agree. I think Jackel is my favorite character.

I didn't find it satisfying at all. As a matter of fact, you could have taken out the "dragon" part and had the same story, IMO. I didn't feel like there was ENOUGH dragon. No background at all. It was super frustrating for me. But maybe you'll like it better?

Is the Maze Runner out on DVD yet, Tracy?


I happen to love Bella Jewel. But I haven't read any of her new stuff. I got stuck on her writing back when her MC Sinners series came out. The first book is

I never could get into her Iron King series so I am a little hesitant to read anything else by her.

See...I remember you saying that. I may still read that series I just felt like Number Thirteen had so much potential but fell a little short.

Yes, I think i will Tracy. I've only read the first book, but loved it. Plus my daughter has been dying to watch the movie. She likes the guy who plays Thomas;)

Oh, yeah, The Iron Fey is by far my favourite series by her. So if that one is not for you I cant see how you would like the other two. The Iron Fey and Talon are more similar than the Blood of Eden, so if you do decide to try one that would be your safest bet. Its darker and has less romance. More vampirey.







I loved Blood of Eden. For some reason, I never finished the Iron Fey series (I remember liking it). I plan on getting to Talon eventually.
