Well, Ora is just going to follow the bludger's trajectory in defence of whoever it is going to hit.

Reading Starlet's Web (same book).

Sweet dreams are made of cheese. Who am I to diss a brie. I cheddar the world & the feta cheese. Everybody’s looking for Stilton


This has to be one of my favourites

message 310: by Laura (new)

Laura | 5524 comments My apologies for this book selection. It’s like a Christian romance and a new adult book got together and ended up with a two headed baby that can’t figure out what direction to go in.

Also, I really don’t like reading about teenage sex, especially if it gets to descriptive. I have three teenager daughters!

I need to slow down when posting from my phone and concentrate on editions!

Suzanne is reading Blue and Gold not the edition posted above


message 317: by Laura (new)

Laura | 5524 comments I’m just getting to the medical stuff. But I think the author had a challenge with herself to see how many different ethnicities she could throw into one book.


message 318: by Cat (new)

Cat (cat_uk) | 10156 comments Mod
The number of times she mentions the Latino boyfriend!

But of course Marie can be ALL ethnicities, with a bit of makeup...

Beater attack complete

Cat is feeling that the choice of book deserves attacking so at the last minute swerves to attack Laura. She's finished Starlet's Web


message 320: by Laura (new)

Laura | 5524 comments The guy who makes her food is Hungarian, with a Japanese American wife, and an African-American ex-wife. And Manny’s dad’s parents are a European (can’t remember which country) Jew and an Argentinian Catholic. And we’ve got Native American and Australian! Can’t say that I’m sorry to take a break from this one. Although I need it for another challenge now. :(

And will inflict pain widely is necessary - pain shared is pain shared, right? ;P

That was funny. I guess when your older you don't want any chance to escape you whoever is present.

Still, couldn't they have waited two minutes & kicked the others out?!
