They (fairies) are just not my thing Kournti but as you know I am not into a lot of paranormal beings! Froi is a slow starter -- it took me 1/2 the book to get into it.

I just got

And fairies are so-so for me. My issues with The Iron King stemmed more from the protagonist than from the settings.
I don't think Seth got grounded for sneaking out to go to the library. I think he got grounded for sneaking out, then went to the library even though he is grounded. ;) I thought my teenagers would be the death of me but I survived. And so did they. Barely. Haha!
Seth - Keep reading Iron King. The Fae Court part is the hardest part to get through.
Checked out
from the library using Overdrive. Was putting this one off because I love VA so much but Seth's post inspired me to get it.

Yes. That is how I read it. He was already grounded and he snuck out and now he was going to be in even more trouble. Guess we will get an update in a few weeks hahaha :)

Ah, if only I could be a teenager in the 80's again! Wouldn't want to be a teenager these days. Too hard.

Agreed. All the social media and texting - no thanks!

There seemed to be some confusion so I thought I'd clear that up!
Seth - I got it the first time around. I've raised two teenage boys so I've go the routine down. ;) Now, quit sneaking out! :P
Nope. None. Nada. Since I finally figured out Overdrive, I'm wishing I had bought another tablet and not a Kindle Fire. No Overdrive in Amazon apps. :(
I got Overdrive ebooks for my step mom for her Fire but they are not able to get WMA audiobooks which is a huge no no for me. I am sticking with my little ipod touch for now!


I just finished ALPHASHOCK (fun, adrenalin pumped SciFi) and have started Shades of Gray.

Oh yes I do that all the time - it takes longer than to transfer onto my sansa clip because it has to go through itunes (slowest system known to man) but it is doable.

Can you get Overdrive on the Fire?

I put the Overdrive app on both my step mother and mother in laws devices (they are both yet to use the app even though it has been over 6 months!)

I didn't see the Overdrive app in the Amazon apps. Will look again.
Hmmm I am 100% sure I set it up for both of them because they both had to get library cards for me to do it!
Shannen! I just remembered what I did!!! I went to the actual overdrive website on their Kindle Fires and loaded it that way.
OK. Thanks! I'll give that a try. That will make me very happy! :)

I read it many moons ago. All I remember is that it was sad!

Rising looks good, David. I bought it for my Nook and started reading! Keep at it with The Passage... That one's a favorite of mine!
Reading
for a third time. Gotta re-read the whole series before
comes out. I love this series (in case you didn't know that already)!

. 5 stars! Check out my review if you're interested. Short and sweet and no spoilers ;)
Now back to reading

5 stars hmmmm.... I plan to start your book Moon Dwellers this week sometime David.

Aww thanks Heidi, I really appreciate the support and I hope you enjoy it ;)

I think there was a mix up here because GR changed the book cover -- David read the book Rising NOT the Shadow Rising. Not sure why GR changes book covers from post to post like that.

I haven't tried downloading it yet. I'm trying to decide if I'm going to keep my Fire or sell it. I have been reading on my phone and haven't used the Fire for a month. I will be getting the new iPhone which will have much better battery life than my current phone so not sure if I need the Fire anymore.

Oh lol, you're right, that's weird!! It was Rising by Stephanie Judice.
Reading all three of the Odd Interludes right now

I could see that. I read on my ipod touch ALL the time (unlike my android cell phone which sucks to read on). Between the Touch and my regular Kindle I am satisfied (I would sure love the newest Ipod Touch though -- it looks sweet!)

I think Brigid is back in college but I wanted to tell her that I am loving the Monstumologist series. I am sad because my library doesn't have the 3rd book on audiobook and neither does Books on Board (my back up audiobook store). Boo!
Haha yup I'm back in college, and I was suffering a lot of Internet problems the past week but it's all fixed now. ;) Yaaay, I'm so glad you're enjoying them Heidi! That series deserves more love! Aww that stinks about the audiobooks though...
