Thanks :)
It was close call between shifters and M&M's theme (for your book choices and for you being from chocolate county :P)

I'm so glad it was the shifters. I really love shifter stories :D
It also makes it really easy for me :p

I'm glad my feeds help :)
If I may recommend a series; Chasing Seth and Forgiving Thayne are really good mm shifter books. I read the second one last week and really loved it. I even put it on my fav shelf :)
For Bone Wing cure see my posting in the Cottage and fill in what you can donate over the next 3 weeks.
Planning for the relay race is making me so happy. I've planned the first three stops in 7 books so far. Scouring my tbr for the longest titles there :-D

Try this Listopia link: for longest Titles

LOL But they get the job done. I have all the stations done. Now I'm looking to do them with fewer books.
Unfortunately, Other than re-reading Harry Potter or The Princess Bride, nothing appeals. I'll just have to resign myself to a long journey :D
Okay I am absolutely terrible with geography. I want to work on my house for the EXP points.Where in the world are "the plains"? I know the mid-west of American has plains, but not exactly sure what states. Or are there any plains throughout the world?
Haha I know this is pathetic.

I have the audiobook from the Library but would prefer a free ePub to read if anyone has any suggestions.
I have several books with long subtitles. Its all nonfiction though. For example: Water Paper Paint: Exploring Creativity with Watercolor and Mixed Media

I will also accept non real world plains :) So if you were to read lord of the rings or something and middle earth had an area considered plains that would count.

Don't worry, I have a whole list of evil twists on monsters. There will most likely be one new evil guy a month for awhile.

Yeah well I need a whole fistful of potions if I'm to attack the Jabberwocky. Can we expect the caravan to return in July assuming we get the cures done. Have you posted them all? Books will be finished hopefully Saturday. Winter dragons either next week or the following week. Bones and wings in likely 2 weeks.

That's actually awesome because I NEED to continue with the LOTR series (I am basically the only person in the world who hasn't read them yet).

How far are you? I'm at Two Towers so if you need company... (and yes, I've read them before. Several times. And watched all movies. Several times.)

I haven't read them either *hides in shame*
Teresa wrote: "I haven't read them either *hides in shame* "Well, not your usual reading material. :)
But there are some interesting fanfictions :P
Oh, Fantasy and Sci-fi was my staple before I discovered M/M (now I love fantasy and sci-fi M/M) so I should have read LOR and the hobbit long before now. I loved the movies, especially the old animated films. I don't like fanfic however. I don't know what it is, but I don't like alternate realities of beloved tv shows, movies or books. There have been a few exceptions of fanfics I liked, but generally it is from a show I've never seen.

My family is obsessed with the books and movies. I think they can quote all of them. So compared to them I am WAY LATE to the party.
I read the The Hobbit and LOVED IT. I also listened to the audiobook of The Fellowship of the Ring and really enjoyed it too, but I can definitely tell these are more dark and serious.
I will be getting to The Two Towers sometime soon I hope!
Tea - It's been a couple years since I read TFOTR so I may need to ask you some questions when I get back to it ;)

I can remember the moving trees...
I LOVE the movies. I bought extended editions and watch them anytime I feel low. I read the books after FOTR movie came out. I simply needed to know what happened next. Loved the books as well.

Ok, I was never that much of fan :)
My reading of books usually is followed with movie marathon (extended versions). And that means after each book! I'm little nuts I know.
With Hobbit (those are not extended) it's about 20h

You been to an all-nighter cinema showing of the films?
Him indoors has - and is on the mailling list for the next time they do that (IMAX in London). Whilst I love the books, being trapped in an IMAX for 12 hours watching the films is not my idea of fun!

I am totally with your friend.
Well, unless you are chucking in good food & alcohol as a bribe. and don't mind if I bring a kindle to read quietly...

LoL! I watched the entire trilogy with my niece 2 month ago - one movie a week, then we switched to the Original Star wars trilogy. She's 24 and she never saw SW before. I was shocked.
I'm with you Catherine. I love movies and those are pretty exciting. But I couldn't watch a marathon of any 3 movies in a row. My eyes start to seriously hurt!
