I'm so glad you're still enjoying these, Anna. I'm hoping to finish up All Clear in the next couple of days. I've had a lot of interruption in my reading the past week. I did manage to slip in a children's Halloween book, The Best Halloween Ever.

[Lyn (Readinghearts)]

I just started Still Missing by Chevy Stevens today, and it looks like it is going to be a good thriller.

[Aly]

I'm reading The Concubine by Norah Lofts. It's about Anne Boleyn. Unfortunately I feel like Lofts hasn't done anything new and it feels like I'm rereading Brief Gaudy Hour by Margaret Campbell Barnes. And I HATED that book. I'm going to go on a rant:

One thing that I really can't stand is over use of foreshadowing. I get that something big is coming up, but seriously, don't actually TELL me what's coming up. Does that count as foreshadowing at that point, or just spoiling the story? Another thing that bugs me is when an author has a character continue on for a couple of years and then suddenly, we are back to where we were BEFORE said character. For example: Clement actually did manage to escape, like Campeggio had suggested and fled. (Next Chapter) Clement is a prisoner and we must free him!!! (not verbatim, but you get my point).

Ok. End rant. Thank you for listening.

[Donna, The Pusher]

LOL Rant away!!!!! That's what we are here for!

I have finally given in and picked up the The Twilight Saga and have gotten through the first three in the last week. I am waiting on the fourth from the library. It is enjoyable and I can see why so many people are crazy about it...
