Please join Vicki and I as we continue the Touch series with book 3!!

[Vicki]

OMG I can't wait to get to get back to this series!

Thanks for the thread, Trisha!!

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

No prob!

I know me too!!! This is a pretty good series, I'm excited to keep going!!

[Vicki]

I'm on my phone so can't check. Is there another book in this series or does this conclude it?

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

There's 2 more after this:

[Vicki]

Oh wow! That's awesome!

[Vicki]

Today I picked up , so I'll be ready for that one after we finish this one. I love this series and I'm so ready to start!

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

yay!! I'm so ready too!
I can't wait to start tomorrow!
So....I have Girl Scout camp tomorrow, so I will be starting later in the day :)

[Vicki]

Okay have a blast!!! :)

[Vicki]

OMG I just hit the wrong button and deleted all my hard work, so starting over. Ugh!!!

I am done with ch. 5 and when you are I'd like you to please read my spoilers and questions in particular and tell me your thoughts, especially on my questions.

Audio Transcripts: (view spoiler)[ Who do you think the patient is? At first I thought it might be a person after Adam since one of the crosswords said he spied on someone whose name started with A. I can't think of anyone else yet, but I don't know if the clues all fit. Who do you think it is? (hide spoiler)]

Crossword Puzzles: (view spoiler)[ I love this idea of giving clues (I think that's what they are) to help the reader figure out the mystery of this book. I have all the answers except for one.

Clues from Ch. 1 Crossword:
I wear a watch on my wrist, because it's only a matter of time
I stabbed him in the neck (or head or back )
You made your bed, and now you'll have to lie in it

Clues from Ch. 5 Crossword:
I spy with my little ??? someone beginning with the letter A
Opposite of having company alone
You are so naive
You are never far from my thoughts
Stronger than observing stalking
Just you and me
Always and forever
I am closer than you think

Do you know the one I don't or have any different answers? Does this give you any insight to what's happening? (hide spoiler)]

I like how the author reviews what's happened in the past books, because i always forget so much!

Camelia: (view spoiler)[ I can't imagine just having your hands do their own thing. LOL I wonder why she has the need to do Adam's face with that particular moment. I think by calling him she might have opened the doors to further communication. (hide spoiler)]

Ben: (view spoiler)[ I don't know where this is going yet, but I'm pretty sure Ben isn't going to like Camelia's involvement with Adam no matter how small. (hide spoiler)]

Wes just cracks me up!

[Vicki]

Finished Ch. 15 I'm taking two granddaughters to see Rio 2 so I won't be able to get back to this for another 3 1/2 hours. Ugh...I just want to read it. LOL


Aunt Alexia: (view spoiler)[ Okay that was strange but cool. I'd kind of freak out that my aunt had the same vision and voice speaking through her as I did! Hmmm...this is really good. (hide spoiler)]

Ben: (view spoiler)[ I don't know what his real concern is here. He could just go with Camelia to see Adam, because I'm pretty sure he must believe her that she is only worried for his life. (hide spoiler)]

Patient: (view spoiler)[ Do you think the patient is Aunt Alexia? What was all the laughter about? This is really eerie. I can't wait for it all to unfold and I know who this patient is. Alexia makes sense because she's in a facility already. (hide spoiler)]

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

lol so sorry, Girl Scout camp all week so I'll be updating late all week :)

I'll start this soon !! :)

[Vicki]

NO reason to be sorry!!!!

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

Okay, 5 chapters
and I'm not stopping - just pausing to update :D

Transcripts (view spoiler)[ OMG who is this????
AT first I thought it might be Ben :(
but then I thought it might actually be....Adam.
I mean, he was pretty crazy in the last book,right? I remember thinking he must be a psychopath.
I'm trying to remember anyone else in their path in the last few books. (hide spoiler)]


OMG I love the crossword too. Totally creepy!!(view spoiler)[

I spy with my little eye
but yes...wouldn't it be Adam.
So it must not BE adam, it must be someone mad at Adam for what he did?? I just don't see enough clues in here yet! (hide spoiler)]

OMG YES, I love that the author gave us a little run down of the previous books. I'd remembered some basics but not all of that. It was so nice to get a quick review without it being a huge info dump :)

Camelia (view spoiler)[ I agree. I'm not sure calling him was the right choice. It's probably only going to upset Ben since she can't lie to him. And it's probably gave Adam the wrong idea....bleh :( (hide spoiler)]

but (view spoiler)[ didn't it feel like Adam was lying? Do you really think his new school....that he loves it and that he's so happy?? He still sounds....off
Or maybe I just still don't trust him! LOL (hide spoiler)]

Okay, I'm off to read more! I'll post back soon :)

[Vicki]

I haven't updated in a while but a lot has happened! I just finished Ch. 30 and not sure if I'll get more done tonight.

I'm stumped, but as far as the audio transcripts I now think it's (view spoiler)[ Ben because of the scar on his arm. My my memory doesn't serve me well enough to remember who did what and whose dad was so abusive and so on. But this last chapter (30) points to Ben, I think. "Soon" is key, right? I think that possibly Ben wants revenge on Adam and maybe it's really Ben who is deranged, not so much Adam. LOL OMG I am still stumped though. LOL Why does Ben always leave and show up at the most exact and opportune times? Is he stalking Adam and/or Camelia?

The hangman picture on the last page of ch. 30 makes me even suspect Wes now. His dad is potentially someone who could make Wes need a psychologist. Wes drew a hangman on the board in Adam's room. Or is that the author trying to throw us off the track? LOL (hide spoiler)]

[Vicki]

Finished. I'll post tomorrow cuz I'm tired after being up all night last night. LOL

[Vicki]

These spoilers cover all the way to the end of the book.


Wes: (view spoiler)[I was scared for a minute there thinking Wes might be the stalker, but it didn't make sense to me. But I knew the author could've exposed something that we didn't know yet. I'm glad it's not him! (hide spoiler)]

Ben: (view spoiler)[It's only obvious that he loves Camelia and she loves him. But now they're taking "time" and I don't know where that'll lead. I almost thought he was going to die...so glad he didn't. (hide spoiler)]

Camelia: (view spoiler)[ She is one gutsy girl, I'll give her that much. I hope that she and her aunt are able to develop their gifts together. (hide spoiler)]

The stalker: (view spoiler)[ I never even considered Piper! LOL I guess I'm not a very good detective. LOL I just thought she was more of a minor character. She was rude and obviously jealous, so I should have at least thought of her. LOL (hide spoiler)]

Next book: I have a feeling the next book will be about Camelia and her aunt (view spoiler)[ since they both share the same gifts, including hearing voices. I want her aunt to know she isn't crazy! I wonder if she'll really move in with them and why her dad came up with the idea. I hope his reason is as simple as the book said! (hide spoiler)]

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

ugh, I'm so sorry
no reading on this one tonight
I'm EXHAUSTED after a day at camp, then a play date for the youngest AND THEN prep for tomorrow's camp followed by a date night!! LOL

I'll definitely have more time to read tomorrow :)

[Vicki]

Lol Busy day! No worries! :)

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

okay 15 chapters
and I just spent about 20 minutes with my family trying to work through this crossword! LOL
Luckily the youngest is down, so we could spend all the time we wanted to trying to figure out 17 across - the one about stabbing someone! LOL

So...is it stabbing them in (view spoiler)[ the "back"? hmmm (hide spoiler)]

Ben - (view spoiler)[ I agree. I'm not sure his push and pull thing here. she's clearly happy to see him
is it because she didn't tell him she was calling.
Ben dodging these conversations is JUST as bad as her not being up front about everything
they are making this worse!! (hide spoiler)]

The stalker (view spoiler)[ I don't think it's..Alexia. She's too obvious a choice - and I really think she's an ally and not a threat. I think she'll come through with some kind of hint or info that will help Camelia. I hope they get her OUT Of that facility (hide spoiler)]

Adam (view spoiler)[ bleh. I still don't trust him. And I wish he'd respect the fact that she has a boyfriend (hide spoiler)]

I'm really liking it so far!

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

Chapter 25 and I have a guess - I've had it since chapter 20 :)

so I think (view spoiler)[ it's Piper.
she still lives at home
has over protective parents
and clearly has a thing for Adam - but HE chose Melissa.
wow, I think Piper just might be CRAZY! :)

we'll see if I'm right (hide spoiler)]

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

and I'm finally done :)

this one was very good but OMG we need to read the next one ASAP

Ben (view spoiler)[ their on and off again stuff is going to kill me!!! LOL (hide spoiler)]

[Vicki]

Let's schedule it!!! I don't have a computer here and won't be able to read your spoilers till we get back from Hawaii next Friday, but I'm ready to schedule it!

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

lol Well, I guessed correctly :) yay! :D

Have fun in Hawaii!!

we'll set a date when you get back!

[Vicki]

Okay, I can hardly wait!!! I have the book waiting at home too! Lol Ready to go!!
