Gave up on because it was making reading a chore. Started .

ROCK ON!

[David]

The first book was awesome, and so far this one is decent :)

[Heidi]

Wow we are a quiet bunch this week! I am reading all cozies right now but plan to start our Nov read Death Cloud on audiobook tonight. I could use some assistance with the Dec group read -- I have two books I can't decide between - so feel free to help me out on that thread if you have time :)

[Stephanie]

It is very good so far. If anyone likes to read summer books, you have to read this one.

I have never heard of that one!

[Charmaine]

Since I'm busy with school I don't usually come on here unless it's the weekend - that's why I've been rather quiet. ;-) But I'm currently reading and

[Heidi]

Ohhh yay! Rot & Ruin!

AHHH I DIDN'T KNOW THAT WAS OUT YET.

[Heidi]

Me neither Brigid. I liked but did not love book one so am anxious to see how Rebel Heart is.

[Brigid ✩]

Yeah, I'm excited. Although I did love the first book, so I have pretty high expectations. XD

I did love the first book, but this one is good too. Not sure how you will fare though Heidi as I'd say the first one was much better. Although I'm only at 60% and for me the first 30% wasn't that impressive, but the last 30% has been making up for it, and I'm hoping the last 40% will be even better!

Heidi (up to no good) wrote: "Ohhh yay! Rot & Ruin!"

I so need to read that book too! Eek! There are so many I need to read, gotta catch up!!

[Peep (Pop! Pop!)]

I set aside for now (not sure I will continue to read it) and now I'm a little bit into .

[Brigid ✩]

Yaaaay Angelfall!

[Peep (Pop! Pop!)]

I like it so far. I thought the female lead was too tough guy at first, but she's grown on me :)

[Brigid ✩]

Yeah, I thought she was really cool. :]

[[deleted user]]

Love, love, love Angelfall! Can't believe it was only 99 cents. Let's hope the sequel lives up to the hype we've given this one.

Yes! Please read it and come back and share your thoughts! The author Jonathan is a fellow group member and he advised he sold the movie rights to it (I could totally see it as a movie) :)

Uh oh. I think I will wait until several of my GR friends read it first then!

Rot & Ruin is going to be a movie? :o That would be awesome!

Yup when I emailed him (Jonathan) to tell him his book was our monthly read he told me he was on a book tour and just sold the rights to the movie *squee*

Can't wait to see how Flesh & Bone is -- come back and update when you are done!! I like first two books A LOT!

[Peep (Pop! Pop!)]

I haven't read the Benny books (though I do remember starting the first one), but I have read his Joe Ledger books (not the latest one yet). Well, read, but mainly listened to them. I LOVED, loved, loved them. Joe Ledger is a beast! The audiobooks are very good. They aren't YA though.

[Heidi]

Ohh I will see if my library has the audiobooks for the Joe Ledgar books! I listened to both Rot & Ruin and Dust & Decay on audiobook and really liked the narration Peep --- you should listen to them! I don't think the audibook for Flesh & Bone has been released yet so I am waiting for it instead of reading it in print -- for those who read them in print are there pictures of the zombie huntger cards in the books???

I added it to my very small TBR list so I'll read it soon :)

[Richard]

Just finished Meditation on Space-Time by Leonard Seet. Great novel.

[Lloyd]

At this point, I'm wondering what I'm NOT reading. I can't seem to hook myself into any one book right now. I hate this reading restlessness! Plus, I don't have much time to read these days. And when I do, it's only in small little doses before bed at night. Where exhaustion inevitably wins every time. (Much too quickly these days.)

But I'll keep on trying! This current one is going good. Different from the types of books I've been reading of late. Maybe it's the one! :)

[Heidi]

Sorry you are suffering from book ADHD Lloyd! Hope you find something that keeps your attention.

Yay David! Let me know how you like Rot & Ruin. I am fairly picky but when I love something I let everyone know (over and over and over again - hahaha). I am kind of a book bully!

Much better David!

Lol what's symptom 2?

[Lloyd]

I did get a new job. Started last February. It's going okay. Between that and my 6 year old...I keep busy. Maybe a little TOO busy. Hard to find the time to do stuff of my own...and it's wearing me out lately.

Plus, I've had this pseudo cold/cough thing going on for...must be working on six-eight weeks now. I think it's finally starting to go away. But my mere mention of that fact probably just added an extra week.

Sympton 2 - Poor attention (aka reading several books with different styles). Lloyd said he was reading a book that was "different" from others he has read and/or already started reading....

Umm did you say 6-8 weeks??? Get yourself to a doctor Lloyd! I had a cold for less than 2 weeks and I was nearly headed to the doctor myself! I am sorry to hear you are so stressed. I just spent a week with my 6 year old neice and man that wore me out! I can see why you are sick. I don't know you you parents do it. I think I would have a kid if they were already trained and could sit in their room and be quiet for more than 5 minutes-- say around 8 years old. Yeah that is it -- if they were 8 and fully trained I might consider it! Is your newer job more stressful than your previous one??

I quit at page 100. The writing was just not that good (to me at least). Most people love that series but as you can probably tell I am not most people! hahaha

[[deleted user]]

Darren - I really like that series. It is a typical YA PNR book which is not Heidi's cup of tea. When is your birthday/movie premiere?

I wouldn't trade the time with my son for anything in the universe. He's everything to me, even if he does wear me out a LOT.

Is my new job stressful? Meh. It's a job. The part that bothers me is the overall non-existent morale there and the office politics and usual bs. I REALLY need to find a way to make a better living.

As for the doctor. I'll be returning to one soon. I'm still dealing with the repercussions of what I thought was an ear infection which later turns out I suffered some kind of permanent hearing loss/nerve damage. Which turned into a semi-scare of a possible tumor and an expensive MRI. So I've now fallen in debt almost $800 (that's WITH insurance!) to find out that there isn't a tumor (thank God), yet there is a benign growth on my pituitary gland. I'm pointed from one _____-ologist to another. Ultimately, they tell me there isn't anything to worry about. But I'm exactly where I was before I went to the doctor. Partially deaf. One more -ologist to go later in December. (Endocrinologist - just to make sure nothing is funky because of the growth).

Yeah. Quite a year. Of course, I eventually have to have another MRI to make sure the growth isn't growing. But I have to pay the first one off first.

Blah, blah, blah. Now I've rambled on too long. :P

[Lloyd]

PS: I'm sticking with . Take THAT reading ADHD!

[Heidi]

Wow Lloyd! That all sounds horrible! I would freak out if I lost my hearing. My sinus issues caused a similar problem for me where I could not hear in my left ear for a week and I freaked and went to the doctor. Luckily for me it cleared up. Sorry yours is ongoing! Also I think a lot of work places have terrible leadership and morale. I struggle daily to remind myself that I can only control my own actions and reactions at work.

You can adopt an 8 year old! LOL. I always joked with my husband that we should adopt an 18 year old, then send them off to college. All our work would already be done (besides laundry on the weekend). It's funnier when I'm actually saying this with facial expressions and hand gestures. Reading it makes me seem mean, haha. In all seriousness, I've always wanted to adopt an older child.

Lloyd I hope they find out what's wrong. Not knowing is the worst (especially with deductibles adding up!) Have you tried calling the different places and making payment arrangements? They are usually very good about it. Once, my son had to see a few doctors because his nostrils hate him (true story) and the bills (with insurance) almost made me cry. One place said I could pay $15 a month. It surprised me, but I thought it was nice of them.

18 year old would be even better! I am happy being an auntie - my nieces and nephews love me but I am sure they will all tell you that auntie Heidi has little patience!
