Anyway, I will NOW start Iron Kissed.

I loved the Lord of the Rings series, Michelle! The books were just so fabulous that i read them thrice!

I loved the movies beyond all reason (like I can watch them back to back all day and I learned Elvish, lol). So I figured that I would read the books as well. I adored the first one so I know I love this one as well.

You learned Elvish??? No kidding! How did you do that?
I loved it that Tolkien created a whole new very believable world with its own languages (even invented the languages).

Already had it downloaded on the kindle, may go back to the SPQR mysteries afterwards.

It's hard, it's like learning any other language really. Practice, practice, practice. There are tons of sites up now that will give you "lessons" in pronunciation of both Sindarian and Quenya languages. Unfortunately I haven't really practiced in a while so a lot of it has slipped away from me but I'll catch up on it all again eventually.


I just finished that. Great, great writing/characters =D.

I am about half way through Wed Him Before You Bed Him, which is pretty good so far.
NOTE: "Cousin Michael is not who I thought he'd be..." :)

I ended up reading Seduction in Death, followed by Shalvis' Seeing Red, and Since I can't seem to help myself will probably read Reunion in Death next.

Next up is Lisa Scottoline's Killer Smile - unless I'm in the mood for an historical romance by then.


Put aside the bad things about the book, and I love the series!! tell me what you think of it when you finish it!

I read 'A Kiss of Shadows' years ago. I think I enjoyed it quite a bit and I'm pretty sure I liked it more than any of the Anita Blake mysteries. However, it was quite awhile ago so don't quote me on that :)

yeah im kinda excited about reading Merry cause I hear so much about her.

Starting Kitty and the Dead Man's Hand at some point today.
I finished Wed Him Before You Bed Him by Sabrina Jeffries and I am now reading A Duke of Her Own by Eloisa James. So far, not my favorite Eloisa James book, but I expect that it'll get better. I've been looking forward to Villier's story for a LONG time now!

I finished The Awakening. I gave it 3 stars. It seemed like half a book. It was also very predictable. However I liked the story and loved Stefan's back story.
I am about to start The Struggle. I would like to finish the Vampire Diaries before the tv show premieres next month.

It's a cute series. I caution you away from reading Nightfall though. It was one of the WORST books I have ever read!

I still need to buy that book. I hope it gets better!

I think my problem is that so far...there does not seem to be much chemistry. So far, it isn't one of those romance novels where the characters cant keep their hands off of one another...I'm really hoping that changes soon!

Tonight I am going to start a book, Runemarks.


i am reading SOUTH OF BROAD by pat conroy and im loving it. i am taking it slowly so as to enjoy it more. you might say i am nursing it as one nurses a drink. i read BEACH MUSIC for the 2nd time to prepare for sob and was very impressed by it again. i can t read PRINCE OF TIDES for the 3rd time cause i have seen the movie so often that i am tired of it and tired of barbra although i do like nick as the main character. read pat s bio on wikipedia and it will help you understand why he is such an emotional person,writer.

LOL Sorry, her writing changes drastically. So far, I only know of a few people on Goodreads who liked Nightfall. I couldn't stand it, and decided not to read the next two that she is coming out with, because I don't want to ruin the series for myself. I loved Vampire Diaries while growing up, and Nightfall made me like it less... :( I hope your in the group that enjoys it though!
