I've just finished chapter 20 (75%). OK for a break : I have to do some shopping. Will be back in an hour to finish this book, because I have to...can't stay far away from Archer...Damned, it hurts so much !!

Exactly! She loves me, but she loves her food even more... ;-)
Christelle wrote: "We all know you have ninja speed-reading skills. At least, tell me you had time to blink an eye ??"*snort* Yeah, I think there were a few blinks in there. It really depends on the book. My current read is almost 3 days...a bit slow going, for me. It's not a bad book, at all, but it isn't keeping my focus like I would really like.

Jewel wrote: "My current read is almost 3 days...a bit slow going, for me...."~gasps~ 3 days?? Who are you and what have you done with Jewel? ;)

**gasp** 3 days ??? Hurry finishing it and then, get to 'Hush" and everything will be back to normal ;)
I finished chapter 18 and damn, I'm hurting for Mallory...I'm going on my walk with Amy now. I will read up to the end of chapter 20, okay?
Talk to you soon :)
Christelle wrote: "**gasp** 3 days ???.."LMAO!! ~high five~ ;)
I'm off now! See you soon! ~hugs~
Simone wrote: "I'm off now! See you soon! ~hugs~"Wait!! Tell me where you stopped? What did you mean when you said chapter 3?
Christelle wrote: "**gasp** 3 days ??? Hurry finishing it and then, get to 'Hush" and everything will be back to normal ;) "LOL! Someone is reading my mind! I do really really want to read that one, for sure. Do you know if 'Hush' is going to be a continued series, like 'Enemies of the State'? I need to know if I need to take notes. Doing that seriously slows me down...

It's me again... LOL. As far as I know it's a standalone. :) But loooooong! 672 pages.

Sorry, you know me and my goddamn phone... LOL. It should have been 'finished chapter 19'...
Simone wrote: "It's me again... LOL. As far as I know it's a standalone. :) But loooooong! 672 pages."If it keeps me engaged as much as I suspect it will, that's, maybe, 2 days of reading. Of course I do have a few things to do this weekend, but that shouldn't slow me down too much. Thanks, Simone!!

For me it's probably two werks. LOL. I'm still at 7%. ;-) Anytime, Jewel! :) Now I'm gone. Promise. ;-)
Hey, my friends. You're being very quite. I hope that Jamilah and Amy are doing OK after being taken care of. I've been back from my break and reading. I ma at 84%, so yes, I bit far ahead of you, but still there.It was good taking a break : I was so pissed off with Mallory and so hurting for Archer. Still, but at least, don't want to throw my kindle anymore, LOL !!
Christelle wrote: "I wondered that too, but I never had to walk with crunches, so...not familiar with the logistics ;)"I have and all I can say is his co-ordination is beyond amazing. Seriously had two good arms and couldn't manage walking with a purse slung over my shoulder so kudos to Archer on that one.
Good morning ladies.

When I had my accident everyone else was worried about if I'd be ok and she was worried about what she'd wear to my funeral...now that's drama.

I concede defeat :-( So sorry, because that's way more than drama !!

Hey Karen! Wow... Okay, your mom would win the first prize in the drama-queen contest, I'll give you that. :)
So, girls, I'm back and ready to continue at 70%... Everything's fine with Jamilah, it just took a bit longer because I had to clean her water trough... Of course when I don't have much time. LOL.

Big poodle? Really? maybe big puddle...just curious?
Karen!! Hi :) How are you this fine morning (afternoon... or whatever, lol!)Your mother.... Just... Well, I got nothing O.o
Karen wrote: "Big poodle? Really? maybe big puddle...just curious?."Can I blame the auto-correct ? No ? really ? you're sure ??
So, I'm back :) Amy decided she wanted to swim and I had a hard time getting her out of the water, lol!I've started (slowly) with chapter 20 and I'm around 71% now.
The end of chapter 19? I hope this will play out the way I imagine :)

Hahaha! Jamilah looked like she wanted to take a shower, too, but she has to wait until tomorrow... ;-)
Okay, I'll hurry up a bit! :)

Honestly? I'm not angry with Mallory at all... I'm sad for him but not angry.

Same here. I was at first, but now I totally get him...

Don't try to find excuses for him : he's sweet but also a complete asshole, too. I'm a forgiving person, so that's OK, but that was still unacceptable and nothing to be proud of !! OK, rant over because he's cleaning up OK..I guess ;)
And yes, I don't want to harm my kindle. What about yours ? Satisfied ?

Hi Jewel, I have to admit I was like you on this one. Once I started there was no stopping...sleep is highly over rated.

Seriously? What is it?
Christelle wrote: "Don't try to find excuses for him : he's sweet but also a complete asshole, too.

I'm not as far as you are but if things remain like they are now, I'm afraid this is going to be a case of "we have to agree to disagree" :) You won't hate me, will you?
Yes, I'm loving my Kindle! It's great! I took it with me while being outside with Amy and I was surprised that the sun didn't make any difference. When I read on my tablet while being in the sun, I often couldn't see a damn thing on the screen.
Christelle wrote: "Karen wrote: "Big poodle? Really? maybe big puddle...just curious?."Can I blame the auto-correct ? No ? really ? you're sure ??"
Totally auto-correct that's your story and we're sticking to it.
Damn, you all have been busy. I was starting to think I'd never get caught up with all this and honestly. I should have just said F*ck everything and re-read this one with you. I know it's heartbreaking at times but still so beautifully written and such an awesome story and I am so enjoying following you all on this. When we go to Banff we're going to all bring this book and re-read it and I'm taking you to the Tim Horton's that Archer and Mallory went to because I've been there. There's only one Tim Horton's drive through in Banff so I know where it is.Ok, I have to go do laundry and moving things but I'll check back in from time to time.
Simone, when you've reached 75% you can read my spoiler from yesterday...I was so afraid of this happening :(
Josy wrote: "Simone, when you've reached 75% you can read my spoiler from yesterday...I was so afraid of this happening :("
Okay, almost there...
Simone wrote: "Josy wrote: "Simone, when you've reached 75% you can read my spoiler from yesterday...I was so afraid of this happening :("
Okay, almost there..."
In case our percentages are different, it's the end of chapter 20.
Karen wrote: "Damn, you all have been busy. I was starting to think I'd never get caught up with all this and honestly. I should have just said F*ck everything and re-read this one with you. I know it's heartbre..."Yes, you should have and yes, it is :)
And reading this book while being in Banff with you all is a lovely idea :)

Oh sh*t... No, the percentages are the same. As to your spoiler, I wouldn't have thought of it in exactly that moment, only later when he had the appointment at the hospital and the doc wasn't all to happy. So... smart girl! ;-) But it's soooo sad! :(
OK, I shouldn't have bad-mouthed my Mom : she called me **feeling like a little girl caught with her hand in the cookie jar**, LOL !! And yes, Josy, I agree to disagree with you about Mallory, LOL.
And yes, kindle are that great, sun or darkness. A tablet cannot compete at all !!

But I like to believe that it might have been also a good thing because he was forced to step away from the path he'd set himself on - following in his parents' steps - even if it was hard when he realized he couldn't do as he'd planned.

I really think this is a good thing and although he was "forced" to move on, it will give him exactly what he needs to heal. Except for Mallory... ;-)
80%: OMG!! This... gesture... It might be the sweetest and honest thing ever!

Hahaha!! I'm sure she had a feeling that you did so and that's why she called you ;)
