I find that my reading goes in spurts. It seems like I read constantly for a few weeks, and then I take a short break.

[Lanelle, Production Chief]

Debbie, there are 2 Ms.

[Debbie]

I just finished Takedown Twenty by Janet Evanovich These books are just laugh out loud. They need to be read in private unless you want to explain to bystanders how crazy Stephanie is.

I will guess T

[Lanelle, Production Chief]

There are 5 Ts, Debbie. (Kind of surprising in a quote this size.)

[Leslie]

The Ties That Bind by Jayne An Krentz

I think I will guess a "K"

[Lanelle, Production Chief]

Luckily there is 1 K, Leslie.

[⚜️XAR]

I finished The Ugly Stepsister Strikes Back by Sariah Wilson earlier, is there a U?

[Lanelle, Production Chief]

Trea, there are 3 Us. One of those is very important.

[⚜️XAR]

I finished Rusty Nailed by Alice Clayton a little bit ago, is there an R?

[Lanelle, Production Chief]

There are 4 Rs, Trea.

[⚜️XAR]

Is it "There is something undeniably creepy about having a vampire stick a needle into your vein."?

[Lanelle, Production Chief]

Yep. That's it. Way to go, Trea! Have you read A Discovery of Witches?

[⚜️XAR]

Lanelle wrote: "Yep. That's it. Way to go, Trea! Have you read A Discovery of Witches?"

No, I haven't, but I've seen it bandied about a little here on GR and have gotten curious about it. Have you? If so, is it any good?

[Penni]

I loved it. It was one of last years highlights for me

[⚜️XAR]

Penni wrote: "I loved it. It was one of last years highlights for me"

Cool! I'll have to look into it!

[Denise S]

wtg Trea!

[⚜️XAR]

Denise wrote: "wtg Trea!"

Thank you!

[Lanelle, Production Chief]

Trea, I'm with Penni about A Discovery of Witches. It's a great book.

But as with most long books, pack your patience. It's not a quick read. And the author is a history professor. You can expect lots of historical details!

I gave it a solid 4 stars. Book 2 is a 3 1/2 stars, and book 3 back up to 4 stars.

[Lanelle, Production Chief]

A new quote has been posted. It's a short one this time.

Remember that you book must have been finished after this point.

I'm fairly good at being patient! Push comes to shove, I'll read two books at a time while reading it!

She's right - some people have issues with it being "too long". I fully enjoy that kind of read - but it's not everyone's cuppa.

[Leslie]

Wow, I was way off on my guess. No wonder Lanelle laughed at my guess.

I just finished an Amanda Quick novel, Garden of Lies. I will guess an "A"

[Lanelle, Production Chief]

Leslie wrote: "Wow, I was way off on my guess. No wonder Lanelle laughed at my guess."

I didn't laugh. I may have snickered, but I didn't laugh :)

There are 3 As, Leslie.

[Leslie]

vein... leis, close enough

[Kathy]

Just finished The Day We Met by Rowan Coleman. Is there an R?

If the writing is good and I'm immersed in the story, longer books don't bother me. Some of the later books in both the Harry Potter and The League (Sherrilyn Kenyon) series have been real chunksters, as evidenced by the one I just spent the last two hours finishing: Born of Legend. Clocked in at over 700 pages, and spanned 5 years at least, but it was totally worth it all!

That being said, is there an S?

[Lanelle, Production Chief]

Kathy, there are no Rs.

Trea, there is only 1 S.

[Kathy]

I Know What I'm Doing -- and Other Lies I Tell Myself: Dispatches from a Life Under Construction by Jen Kirkman.

Is there an I?

[⚜️XAR]

I finished Dying to Tell by Rita Herron last night, is there an H?

[Lanelle, Production Chief]

Kathy, there are 2 Is.

Trea, there 2 Hs.

[Lanelle, Production Chief]

Welcome to the Hangman game, Wayne. There are 3 Cs.

[Lanelle, Production Chief]

Shari Lee, there are 5 Ts.

[Leslie]

is it cheating if I googled it and think I know the answer? I googled the first six words because I had already guessed those.....

[Lanelle, Production Chief]

Maybe? A bit? But whatever it takes to make a guess.

[Leslie]

If you cannot teach me to fly, teach me to sing. James Carrie?

I just wanted to see if it would work. I will refrain in the future.....unless I really, really can't get it.

[Lanelle, Production Chief]

Leslie wrote: "If you cannot teach me to fly, then teach me to sing. James Carrie?"

That's it, Leslie. Congratulations! Full points for getting the quote right. Um, points are docked for getting the author, J.M. Barrie, wrong :)

Meh. Barrie. Carrie. But singing is fun though!

[Lanelle, Production Chief]

Leslie wrote: "..singing is fun though!."

Yep!

A new quote has been posted. It's a long one.

[⚜️XAR]

I just finished Purity in Death by J.D. Robb, is there an R?

[Denise S]

just finished Attachments by Rainbow Rowell

[Lanelle, Production Chief]

Trea, there are only 5 Rs in that huge quote!

Denise, there are 6 As. (Kind of a small number, too.)

[Denise S]

[Penni]

Lordy - STILL haven't finished anything. Naughty me.

[Lanelle, Production Chief]

Penni wrote: "Lordy - STILL haven't finished anything. Naughty me."

Penni, what's going on? Are you just in a slump?

Shari Lee wrote: "Finished Pay for Play by Victoria Ashley and Hilary Storm
Is there a S"

Was it any good, Shari? I picked this one up when it was on sale after reading the sample, but I'm still not sure about it.

[Lanelle, Production Chief]

There are 14 of those Es, Wayne. That will certainly help with the puzzle.

[⚜️XAR]

Shari Lee wrote: "It was a good quick read with lots of hot men.... lol. It's typical Victoria Ashley. Has the same feel as the Walk of Shame series."

I haven't read the author before, so wouldn't really know what typical is for her! Good to know it was a good read, and quick too!

[⚜️XAR]

I finished Dead Men Don't Crochet by Betty Hechtman, is there a D?
