I'm from California, and I THOUGHT I knew what amazing beaches were... but then I went to Gold Coast. I love California, but Australia spanks us when it comes to beaches :P

[★ Jess]

GOLD COAST!!!!!
Oh, i havent been up there in years.

[Lisa]

haha you should come up again it reallly fun :)

[Rebekah Faith]

i want to visit Australia. it sounds amazing.

[Lisa]

you should! you can camp out at my house :)

[★ Jess]

Australia is amazing!!!!

You have big cities, beautiful beaches, lush rainforest, and red deserts.
And on the Gold Coast, they have sky scrapers, right on the beach.


Just dont go to Melbourne in September...AFL finals are on. Its crazy there, because most games are played there, and most teams are victorian.

[Lisa]

NRL is better ( Long Live the TITANS!!!!!) ummmm not a big fan of AFL and yes there are skyscrapers right by the beach plus we have like five theme parks all down the road from each other ( well kinda more apart but you no...)

[★ Jess]

AFL IS BETTER!!!!!!!! lol, i see this going to an all out war... XD

But AFL is better! And it has a bigger fan base in Australia :)
Anyway, if your from Queensland, you should be happy with the lions this year Fev AND Brown in the forward line. PLus a new team in the GC next year....

Thats a clip of AFL there, for those who dont know. A great goal from a few years back.

[Lisa]

huh say wat?????? i dont even no who fev and Brown are....mehhhhhh no one follows AFL here :) NRL is wayyyy better i mean its like THE sport here :)

[★ Jess]

really? LOL, i thought it was big up there, because of the New team from popular demand in the GC

[Lisa]

uh huh no one play AFL its like *no offence to all AFL fans :( but this is the truth* social suicide here seriously everyone plays club NRL but like one out of hundred plays AFL ...:)

[★ Jess]

lol. Well it huge every where else. Especially Victoria and South Australia.

[★ Jess]

NRL isnt big here in Adelaide though...where abouts?

[★ Jess]

hahaha lol
I thought it was a bit odd...
I hate NRL, but I loooooooooooooooooove AFL.

Especially that im a Port supporter, and a good friend of mine is a crows supporter.
We have bragging rights at school. I had fun on Monday, after port won, and Crows lots by 9 goals. XD


Speaking of which Regan, when do you finish for the holies?

4)Mistwood
5)The Clockwork Angel
6)Matched
7)The Iron Daughter
8)Perchance to Dream

[Miss Amelia]

ohh those are some great ones!

I cant wait for THE IRON DAUGHTER & PERCHANCE TO DREAM either! There are some ARCs of PERCHANCE out there that I'm trying to get my grubby hands on :P

[Andrez]

i feel so ignorant...the only books i know of that list are mockingjay and the clockwork anggel

[Miss Ryoko]

Don't feel bad, I don't know any of those books!

[Rebekah Faith]

i only know Mockingjay

[Miss Amelia]

The Iron Daughter is book II in a trilogy by new author Julie Kagawa, whose book THE IRON KING just came out a few months ago. It's a modern faerie tale that I've heard really good things about! :P

And Perchance to Dream is another 2nd book in a trilogy, by Lisa Mantchev, that follows EYES LIKE STARS. I haven't read it yet, but the premise is that all Shakespearean characters live together in this theatre and so it's like a fantasy series with Shakespearean elements. It sounds really good!

[Rebekah Faith]

kewl! sounds interesting. i might delve into the series' and try them sometime

[Amy]

Don't feel bad guys! I tend to enjoy some rather obscure books, at least ones that aren't widely known- though that is not to say I'm not really really looking forward to Lies, The Necromancer, The Red Pyramid, Charlie Bone And The Red Knight, The Reckoning, The Scorch Trials, and Camp Half Blood (the new series)!! Cause I am :) But if I listed everything I couldn't wait for it's be a mile long :D


And there's a bunch that are coming out in 2011 and 2012 that I'm super excited for as well. (Libba Bray's The Diviners, Kristin Cashore's Bitterblue, Tamora Pierce's Mastiff...and more) [8

[★ Jess]

YAY me too :D

[★ Jess]

Me too.
There are people that i have just had enough of. And im glad for a break. So stressful...

[Lisa]

haha im already on holies but then most school only start today ;) The pirivate schools here start earlier here is that the case in South Aus? btw Amelia i swear Iron Daughter is already out i was on a blog and it said the blogger was reading it ;)

[Amy]

I think they get advanced copies to review /:
My break starts on Friday! But we only get a week. And then APs start oh so soon...

[Miss Amelia]

hmmm I'm not sure about that! Maybe it was The Iron King? Sometimes bloggers get ARCs to review, but I think it's too early to see IRON DAUGHTER ARCs...

[Amy]

Harlequin distributes ARCS through an online service as eBooks and some bloggers have already gotten it for review. So jealous!!

[Miss Amelia]

eww well I would just as soon wait! Ebooks are stupid :) (my opinion, at least!)

[Miss Ryoko]

My eyes would hurt! But maybe if it was a book I really wanted to read, I'd be down for getting the books before they come out to read them! Some people got to read Christopher Moore's new book last month and I was so jealous! (it came out March 23rd)

[[deleted user]]

Spirit Bound by Richelle Mead, The Clockwork Angel by Cassandra Clare,
The Reckoning by Kelley Armstrong, among other books :)

[Rebekah Faith]

im waiting for the reckoning too

Put a space between the ... and the link. It seems minor, but I'm pretty sure it will automatically make it a link.

Unless you mean the book...in which case you should click on the "add book/author" button above the comment box. But you probably knew that :)

Mckenzie...that sounds like a depressing set of books, simply going off of the titles...

[★ Jess]

I agree with that last bit Jordan. :S

[Lisa]

hahaha thats really funny coze i was thinking the same thing Jordan!

[Lisa]

OMG you're a genius Jordan! it actually worked ;)

[Mckenzie]

well..yeah the titles do sound depressing but the books aren't..not that i think so anyways?

I am looking forward to the Red Pyramid too Amy - am currently reading book one of the new "curse workers" series from Holly Black [book:White Cat|6087756] and next up is the Iron Daughter...I have to say that Kagawa's new Iron Fey world is my current favorite...
